What differentiates Google Vault from other similar products?
I drawn to the vault's security features and the simplicity with which I could access it. Using it is a great method to keep your information safe and organized. With Google Vault, I now have the ability to limit who gets access to certain data. When I download a file from the Google Vault, I have additional choices for analyzing the information in detail. I am able to preserve company records for future reference thanks to the data retention policy.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
There is a potential that some data may be mistakenly erased in an organization. These can be recovered with the aid of this program. Compliance audits can retrieve emails and documents transmitted throughout the organization since archiving is done in real time and without causing any inconvenience to any of the users.
What do you dislike most about this product?
It is one of the drawbacks of Google vault because deleted accounts cannot be retrieved. To my mind, this is a problem that has to be solved permanently. It also has a high learning curve and necessitates some practice before you get the hang of it.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Our organization uses Google vault to safely store all types of information. We also utilize it to store and search for some data. Users and their behaviors have also been tracked by it.
