A lot of pros for using Tresorit with a few cons one must seriously consider
Rating: 9 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
Tresorit is being used across the entire organization. As a venture fund, we need to store copies of data rooms we review securely. We also have internal documents and metrics we need to keep securely stored, as well as our Limited Partner data. Furthermore, we required independence from Google and other large file storage organizations. We had a bad experience with Google, there was an issue with a secure key on Google Domains, so Google just turned off our entire account, which led to no access to Drive, Calendar, Email, and other services. With limited to no support, and lacking security options, we found most alternatives to Tresorit unacceptable.
Pros
- Support
- Secure Storage
Cons
- Shared Folders with outside guests, to collaborate with them (collect uploads).
- Removal of data-cap on file size, and right now, there is one, and it's an issue when storing rich media (such as startup pitch videos, etc.).
Likelihood to Recommend
Good scenario: Wanting to have your files stored by an independent group that specializes in secure file storage. The ability to have files stored on servers that are not domestic is a big plus too. We had issues in the past with a solution that went down when the US AWS East Coast servers had an issue; Tresorit is insulated from these problems and appears to handle load balancing as well.
Not good scenario: If you want to have outside parties, upload files/share files with you within your Tresorit environment. There is no way of doing this, and this is a real operational problem.
