What do you like best about DataGuard?

To me, the main value I got out of DataGuard was in the professional services and access to a data protection lawyer whom could ease my way into the role of DPO and becoming acquainted with data protection legislation.

As for the platform, it was good to have a central platform where everything data protection is supposed to go, with workflows around updating the documentation of processing activities, letting the organization take courses and fill in assessments, as well as a place to document incidents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGuard?

The platform can be a bit hard to navigate, especially when it comes to how it all fits together. It feels as if you fill in enough information into assessments and documentations to get an overview, but there isn't really that many features to e.g. trace where data comes from and where it goes in the end. Some of the courses could be a bit more polished, as the questions were often ambiguously worded so that even when you knew the answer, you still had to guess the intent behind the questions.

What do you like best about DataGuard?

We have been working with Dataguard for some time now and are absolutely satisfied with the collaboration. Particularly noteworthy is the professional competence of our consultant Richard Z., who is always there to assist us with advice and action. He knows how to explain even complex data protection issues in an understandable and practical way. Thanks to his support, we feel well cared for and protected.

The Dataguard online platform is also excellently designed: it is extremely clear, user-friendly, and reliably guides us through all processes. This makes the implementation and compliance with data protection measures significantly easier and saves valuable time.

The support from Dataguard overall is always quick, friendly, and solution-oriented. We can wholeheartedly recommend Dataguard and especially Richard Z.! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGuard?

What do you like best about DataGuard?

We really appreciated the helpful guidance towards establishing our ISMS in a way that is appropriate for our small company size. Additionally to our consultants, the dataguard platform (ISMS documention, Risk, Privacy, ...) helped us to find a structure that works for us and generated mandatory documentation that would have taken us ages otherwise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGuard?

Not a particular dislike, a word of advice: the bulk of work of establishing the necessary documentation and adjusting it to the company needs still need to be done internally. So while Dataguard is very helpful when it comes to templates, tools and advice, you need someone in-house that is in the lead and is actively driving the progress of the project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DataGuard solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed to establish an ISMS in order to get an ISO/IEC 27001 certification. Since we lacked the knowledge and experience in that task and wanted to achieve our goal as efficiently as possible, Dataguard delivered it through consulting and the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGuard?

Reliable, professional, and solution-oriented – strong collaboration with DataGuard

Our collaboration with DataGuard was consistently positive: The team works professionally, quickly, and knows how to convey complex topics clearly and understandably. Particularly noteworthy is the structured approach and solution-oriented communication – always on point and on time.

A small area for improvement would be that the provided templates could be more uniform and consistently structured to further optimize the entire process. Nevertheless, overall a thoroughly successful cooperation with a strong partner in the field of data protection and compliance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At first glance, the system seemed complex, but the introduction was very well supported. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DataGuard solving and how is that benefiting you?

Conducting training sessions is difficult because scheduling is not easy. Through the Dataguard Academy, we want to simplify this; unfortunately, there is still a lack of a transparent overview of which users have been invited to which training sessions and have not yet completed them.
