We performed a comparison between Microsoft Purview Data Governance and SAP Data Governance based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Governance solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Microsoft Purview is extremely stable."
"The e-discovery search is useful."
"Their data labeling or data classification is particularly valuable because we want to categorize all of our data into confidential, public, or internal."
"The most valuable aspect of Purview is its PowerShell connectivity, enabling automation."
"I like Purview's data discovery features. It automatically scans and identifies all the fields. In the last project, the customer required us to have some of the codes we specified in this, and we had to structure the codes in a specific way. We can define the structure."
"I don't know if I've gotten much value out of Purview personally, but our security team loves it. Our biggest concern is leakage or theft of our data because we have a lot of PII and stuff that has not been released. We like the insights Purview provides and the way the solution can track and manage things. I'd say that was probably their favorite piece of it so far. From everything the security team has told me, the policy management and DLP features are working spectacularly."
"The user interface is highly intuitive and user-friendly."
"The documentation is very exhaustive. Anyone can go ahead and try different use cases."
"The new workflow engine is based on the web app rather than the Java-based approach."
"It is robust solution."
"There are some limitations with regard to the lineage of data from different parts of the system."
"It supports only a limited number of tools and technologies that pertain to Microsoft products. If you want to leverage other solutions such as Workday or Oracle Fusion, features will be coming up, but as of now, it is for the Microsoft suite."
"Enhancing the tool's capability to connect to multiple sources would be valuable."
"I have some concerns about the separation of roles in Purview from the Microsoft tenant, as well as how they interact with the security portal and endpoint manager."
"Microsoft Purview's compliance processes for handling various Mac and iOS devices could be significantly improved."
"Support should be improved in the form of good documentation and video lessons where a person can check things out. There is a community, but it takes a lot of time if we want to get an answer to a question."
"There is room for improvement when it comes to Purview's data connector platform in supporting ingestion from non-Microsoft data sources."
"Another area for improvement is in managing the business glossary terms. If they could provide the same type of method that we use to configure the scan rule sets, that would be helpful. Currently, there is no option like this, so we have to do it manually. Automatic detection would be great."
"I would like to see harmonizing with some of the external third-party products so that it will all be within SAP."
"SAP should come up with specialized services as per their customer's requirements."
