    Google Vault has a much better UI compared to Bloomberg and hence helps in navigation within the software. Bloomberg has better pricing and is much lower than Google Vault. The export feature in Bloomberg is also better than Google Vault by miles. But due to brand value and …

    Well suited - 1. Quick archival esp in Google workspace apps. Very easy to archive and store important conversations, chats, etc. 2. Search and eDiscovery - Very important feature. Less appropriate - 1. Export - Very limited options and sometimes a cause of concern due to limited options post eDiscovery. 2. Integration - Very limited integration options and leads to the use of multiple alternatives or workspaces. 3. Archival post deletion - No option for this that leads to missing important elements sometimes.

    Return on Investment
    Google
    • Positive ROI- able to conveniently store and access files/data that otherwise would not have been as organized. Not only makes my day more efficient but leads to a better client experience.
    • Organized storage.
    • Easy interface once you get used it it- give it about a month.
