I love the confidentiality Virtru provides. I am a SpEd Secretary and constantly need to communicate confidential material to other teachers, school district employees, and parents.

The thing I dislike about Virtru is getting pushback from teachers that opening a Virtru encrypted email is difficult. In the majority of these situations teachers have not taken the 5 minutes to learn the system. It literally takes only a few minutes to learn Virtru and only a few extra seconds to open a secure email.

The other problem I have run into is with sending large attachments/data, it sometimes takes a more time to send. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love knowing that my patients are safe when we send emails with PHI in them. A necessary step in the field, sending out referrals can be dangerous when sent unguarded. Virtru helps to keep my patient's information private. Just install the extension, and it's like a part of your every day without feeling like an extra step. I use Virtru with almost every email I have sent, daily. It is like second nature to me now, I don't even realize it's there! But I am still thrilled about how easy it is to use, and how hard it works to protect PHI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
