Usability	Microsoft No answers on this topic	Varonis I wish the cost was a little bit lower and increase functionality and features would give it 10/10. Incentivized Gus Awad Senior Systems Engineer Read full review
Support Rating	Microsoft No answers on this topic	Varonis Support has always been very responsive and addressed any issues we may have had in the past. Some local engineers are willing to come onsite or work over a web session to discuss creating a new rule set or look at some issues. Getting issues address has never been a problem. There was one feature we had trouble getting to function correctly, but support and local engineers were willing to work with us as much as needed to get it working correctly for our organization.

Return on Investment	Microsoft No answers on this topic	Varonis We have identified data classifications issues that our organization was not aware of prior to the implementation. The tool does take a dedicated resource for it to be effective. Varonis has improved the speed with which we can fulfill audit requests, leaving us more time for other tasks.
