Considered Both Products
Arcserve UDP
Chose Arcserve UDP
Arcserve [UDP] has stood the test of time due to its low cost-to-feature value proposition for our company. We have ultimately decided to move to a more MSP-friendly product in N-Able Backup, but Arcserve [UDP] kept us around for years with their reliable and inexpensive …
Chose Arcserve UDP
We used to have Veritas but it was never reliable; we had to set it up several times and it just never worked as expected. Arcserve UDP turned out to be easier to set up, manage, very reliable, and their team is always close to the customer. Our local partner has provided …
Chose Arcserve UDP
Barracuda was way too slow--I really liked their cloud console, but the backups took forever, never even got to try a restore as our trial period ran out before we could get enough backups done to test.
Unitrends was a bit better, but it had a 3rd-party tool for some features …
DataMotion
Chose DataMotion
I don't have any other experience with anything other than data motion

DataMotion is 3 and mysecurepractice is a 10
Chose DataMotion
I do not have anything to compare DataMotion to.
Chose DataMotion
Our office previously used SendINc. This is an easier system to use and more cost effective
Chose DataMotion
DataMotion was the most integrated and allowed for the smoothest transition between "standard" email and the secure email platform.
Chose DataMotion
Easy to use and can send as many emails as needed at 1 fee
Chose DataMotion
We can not afford Cisco products; in the end, everything we require is on the software side, not the hardware side. Also, we are trying to move away from these bulky appliance-type concepts of secure documentation and communication integrations. This federated easy, fast and …
Chose DataMotion
Egress offers a similar system, although the login and user interface are slightly slower and feel a little more clunky. Upon using DataMotion, it just clicks that both clients and colleagues would prefer a simpler, more streamlined system that allows for minimum effort and …
Chose DataMotion
I have never reviewed MyCase, but I used it for a year at my prior firm and found that DataMotion is better for organizing workflow and can much more easily send encrypted documents. That said, I found MyCase better for areas of law outside real estate since it was catered more …
Chose DataMotion
The price of DataMotion is very reasonable and not an extra like other solutions we looked at. DataMotion SecureMail ensures that data is scanned for the latest malware and viruses before it gets to our network. Can be customized based on the policies we wish to apply to our …
Chose DataMotion
For us, the deciding factor was the ease with which DataMotion SecureMail could be deployed and managed. We really needed a type of product that wouldn't place too much pressure on the IT department. We also delighted with the DataMotion SecureMail's effectiveness and how …
Chose DataMotion
DataMotion SecureMail is the easiest-to-use email encryption product. It works in the background encrypting every email automatically. Using this solution will catch all potential email threats and block any email hacking attempts.
Chose DataMotion
A simple and direct way to share files between pairs of users, but lacks the ability to share among more than two persons or directly collaborate on shared files.
Chose DataMotion
No comparison in that One Partner will display patients' quality metrics and indicate if they are open or closed.
Chose DataMotion
I haven't really used any other products.
Chose DataMotion
What sets DataMotion apart from the competitors is that is is very affordable and offers great features. In addition, not many tools in its category comes with a mobile application.
Chose DataMotion
DataMotion is easy to use as no coding needs. Most important, it offers a mobile application and comes at an affordable cost.
Chose DataMotion
DataMotion is better in many ways but one reason why I would still go for this software is that it encryption and decryption of emails is easy - no coding needed.

I could see DataMotion being used anywhere that needs to send confidential data or information within our outside of the workplace. This platform sends and receives emails securely. Also, the DataMotion support team response time is very helpful/appreciated and they will help you get things up and running quickly. I would definitely recommend [it].

Support Rating
Pretty good--I haven't actually had to call them much so it's hard to say. The box works well enough and most of my issues have been related to the rest of my network, rather than the appliance itself.

Responses always seem timely and the support seems to be pretty good. We haven't really had any major issues with the software yet, so I that's the reason I gave only an 8. If something more difficult were to pop up, I'd have a little more to say on the support for the product.
