"VeraCrypt"
What do you like best about VeraCrypt?

VeraCrypt allows you to create hidden volumes within encrypted partitions. This feature enables you to store sensitive data discreetly, providing an additional layer of security. It also supports steganography, allowing you to hide encrypted data within other files or containers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VeraCrypt?

Encrypting and decrypting data can introduce a performance overhead, especially on older or low-end systems. While VeraCrypt is optimized for performance, it may still impact the speed of disk operations, particularly when working with large volumes of data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very good encryption software"
What do you like best about VeraCrypt?

I like veracrypt, because it helps us to safely and effectively encrypt and archive our key digital files and properties. This addressed the security concerns that businesses or anyone else might have allowed digital files to be encrypted in a variety of ways. You would create an encryption buffer to transfer through devices or encrypt complete disks. Veracrypt is my favorite shortcoming and that of my coworkers, as it provides a wide array of functionality even more than you might expect in a free software of this kind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VeraCrypt?

What I don't like in Veracript is mostly esthetic as I don't like the feel of program design personally is very simple and a little messy, I'd prefer it to have a more functional interface so there's nothing else that bothers me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent solution free of charge"
What do you like best about VeraCrypt?

The most importat facility of Veracrypt is that it is certainly a sophisticated application which requires specific attention that offers a way to encrypt our information which we find more sensitive, from compact and mountable capacities to full hard drives, ensuring absolute peace of mind and security because even if the computer fell into the wrong hands, effective Veracrypt authentication allows access worthless. In brief, VeraCrypt makes not only straightforward to decode encryption, but is almost impossible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VeraCrypt?

I don't like much that I could only claim and agree that my knowledge of using different devices renders it less user-friendly than the alternative if you only need to encrypt files and folders and it needs setup and some amount of training to encrypt full systems, rest for all the other advantages that I'm pleased with to present.

"Encrypt files for storage."
What do you like best about VeraCrypt?

Veracrypt is an exceptional technology that allows you to encrypt files for storage. One of the main advantages is the ability to encrypt an unlimited number of hard drives or portable devices with Veracrypt, so you can securely transfer sensitive information between work and home. Veracrypt has various encryption techniques and offers users the ability to create a hidden partition, which is very useful when sharing a laptop or sending information securely. The application has accessible source code, making it completely free for anyone on the most common systems. Users are given the option to encrypt the device's partition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VeraCrypt?

The biggest weakness of Veracrypt is an outdated model that makes the system opaque, making it difficult to find certain features. The configuration is quite difficult, and understanding the tool requires a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I very like use VeraCrypt"
What do you like best about VeraCrypt?

The encryption of our files and personal details is important in order to secure them. I still insert my files on the drive of Dropbox or Google, some of which can be blown up by state actors or hackers and once inside, you can read all sensitive documents of our business. Veracrypt enables me to create an encrypted capsules that are password-protected and that can be sent via an e-mail or uploaded to any server. Often we treat customer sensitive information about our intent and provide us with data in the form of veracrypt volumes, ensuring data security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VeraCrypt?

Veracrypt user interface is not polished, this team can include a UI designer to make the user friendlier. There isn't a smartphone or tablet app on Veracrypt. Gmail would be a godsend to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Helps me encrypt my files with a GUI"
What do you like best about VeraCrypt?

Encryption is important to safeguard our files and personal data. I always place my files in Dropbox or Google drive, sometimes these files could be snooped by state actors or hackers and once they are in they will be able to read all of our company's sensitive documents. Veracrypt helps me create an encrypted and password protected capsule that can be sent via email or uploaded to any server and it gives us peace of mind that it is not being snooped. Sometimes we handle client's sensitive information on our end and they give us data in the form of a veracrypt volume, and this ensures safety of the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VeraCrypt?

Veracrypt's UI is not polished, a UI designer could be enlisted in this team to make the UI more user friendly. Veracrypt does not have a mobile or tablet app. A gmail integration would be godsend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It serves to solve the security concerns that companies or any common person may have allows to encrypt digital files in several ways, I can create an encryption container that I can move between media or encrypt entire disks. in short veracrypt is my favorite and that of my colleagues because it offers a wide range of features, much more than you would expect in a completely free program like this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VeraCrypt?

What I dislike about veracrypt is mainly at the aesthetic level since I personally do not like the appearance of the program design is very minimalist and a bit chaotic I would like it to have a new interface more in line with all the good that it really offers so There is nothing else that upsets me.
