  • Searching data is very easy, even you can use complex filters to find what you are looking for.
  • Exporting only required set of data is easy.
  • Since Vault is by default included with Google Workspace hence cost effective.
  • Exporting Chats in different format can be improvised
  • Sometimes mail exporting takes too much time even for small number of emails.
  • Help documents are very boring instead can provide short videos on various help/understanding topics.

  • Archiving - Archiving of emails, chats, etc, Pretty easy to use and have some amazing features wrt to duration, access, etc.
  • Search - Post archival, Google Vault makes it pretty easy to search for relevant content and eDiscovery.
  • Auditing - Workspace manager can easily audit user activities. Helps security at the org level.
  • Export - Area of improvement for export features. Limited options that could be improved.
  • Storage - While the storage is easy, it needs to improve on the amount that can be stored. Very less and quite expensive at an org level.
  • Customer support - Not a very good customer or post-sales support making the learning curve very steep.

  • It helps us in encryption at-rest and in-transit
  • It does automatic protection against sophisticated phishing attacks and emerging malware threats
  • Gives an ability for admins to streamline authentication, asset protection, and operational control—all from one dashboard
  • They can work more on their security, as there are some flaws, definitely at a very low extent, BUT there are!
  • IT Administration is also a bit difficult, especially when setting up new users
  • Sometimes I personally face problems while editing common file formats
