Likelihood to Recommend
DataMotion, Inc.
I would consistently recommend this as a great option to both send and receive sensitive client data in an effective and documented manner. In the audit industry, with the forwarding of sensitive financial and personal information, security and encryption are the biggest factors that our clients demand. DataMotion provides these characteristics and allows our clients to send information without concern or hesitation. Additionally, from an audit perspective, being able to have a tracking mechanism for when an email is opened/read also allows for us to maintain an accurate timeline of information flow.

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
DataMotion, Inc.
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.

Alternatives Considered
DataMotion, Inc.
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 multi-disciplinary API systems DataMotion has provided us is precisely what we need.

Return on Investment
DataMotion, Inc.
  • DataMotion has had a positive return on investment due to the fact that we have to post less, avoid postal fees, and ensure security.
  • DataMotion has decreased the amount of compliance required when sending out information; when posting documents, we would have previously had to have documents checked by compliance for security, but now we can issue these clients directly.
  • Everyone in the company uses DataMotion; this has saved both time and money because of the decreased number of letters being drafted; it has created a more efficient workforce and boosted productivity.
