    SmartVault Corporation
    SmartVault sends out a cover letter with the tax returns that includes a link for them to download their tax returns, avoiding the insecurity of an email attachment. It does not include a statement retrieval feature but does work very nicely with a third-party app called FileThis. The majority of the users in the office have not been able to install the Outlook plug-in due to "a certificate error." In five years, SmartVault has not addressed this issue.

    Virtru
    Of all the products out there that integrate with Google, we found Virtru to be the most user-friendly for both our users and the recipients. At the same time, its logging capabilities provide the trail we need for sensitive information. This is one tool for us that has generally been "setup and forget" which helps with the I.T. Dept workload.

    • Native Google Docs file encryption should be improved, it's working great in Google Drive but only for files that are not Google native.

    For the one sending/using, I rate a 10. For receiver experience, I would rate it 8, as sometimes there are hiccups. So overall, a 9

    Reaching someone is more difficult than it should be. Also, they don't take possession of known issues always suggesting it is a local PC issue in initial conversations. That, of course, can be frustrating for the end-user.

    Full Gmail integration was not a negotiable item for us in our evaluation. Other products provided our needed functionality, but they were outside the standard Gmail interface. That made them more difficult to use, and also less likely to be used. Virtru was the only one we evaluated that actually resided within the Gmail interface, making it very easy to use.

    Return on Investment
    SmartVault Corporation
    • has made sharing documents with large numbers of clients easier
    • has forced us into using their service, or spending time to find a better alternative, in my experience.
    • Speaking personally the product has cost us several thousand dollars over predicted budget costs for a 3-year projection

    • Saving manual work and a few steps of the daily work of our reps. saving about 50 hours a month.
    • Ensuring customer sensitive info is protected.
    • Regulation compliance which would prevent us from doing business.
