OneTrust is a great platform which can solve all the basic privacy issues, but the integration issues make it have prop and con parts. While things are saving time with automation, the difficulty with this set up is with the effort of keeping everything connected and switched on. If you run a smaller organization, have a less technical expertise--take time to learn new technology.

    The OneTrust Privacy and Data Governance Cloud tool has enabled our organisation to increase ease and efficiency in processing our DSRs, however, the cloud platform has let us down on a few occasions. Having said this, OneTrust's support team is fantastic and overwhelmingly accommodating and takes the time to provide end-to-end support.

OneTrust Privacy Automation Likes & Dislikes

Like

scalability, easy implementation, intuitive user interface

Like

The technical competency of OneTrust's Privacy & Data Governance Cloud to manage the consent and data subject requests (DSRs) is outstanding. It eases the procedure of recording user preferences across channels and takes care of DSRs solely, annihilating tons of my teams' time.

Like

The OneTrust Privacy and Data Governance Cloud platform allows us to process our data subject requests with less time and friction, and has been impressively easy to use by all members of the team, even where in some cases, minimal training has been provided. Simply put, the user interface is user friendly and is clearly easy to use for beginners. Secondly, the OneTrust API Library is a very impressive aspect of the platform, and with iterative tweaking, has become very useful for streamlining business processes and ultimately automates away repetitive tasks. The third best point of this solution, from my team and I's perspective is the scan visualisation. The visualisation provides a very good overview of what has already been scanned by the tool, and is very concise and easy to understand. It is also worth mentioning that OneTrust support has always been quick to respond to our support requests, and are always happy to jump on a call and spend the time assisting with and troubleshooting any issues we surface.

Dislike

Lots of adjustments during data migration. All additional features must be paid for separately. No interactive data map.

Dislike

Integrating OneTrust with our present detected SIEM (Security information and Event Management) system has been difficult to cope with. The data matrix proving wasn't logical for us, and we used a lot of OneTrust's support in order to obtain our platform work correctly.

Dislike

Despite the excellent features and benefits of the OneTrust Privacy and Data Governance Cloud solution, it has become quite cumbersome and time consuming to manage different permissions for different users. The different modules provided on the platform seem to have consistencies of varying degrees for different permission functions, making it a bit of a headache to assign the correct permissions to users based on their varying job roles. This makes it a challenge to put security at the forefront of the solution by using the principle of least privilege. It simply creates too much overhead. While OneTrust support, as previously mentioned, is world-class, the documentation has often been a source of tension and frustration. Some of the features on the platform are simply not documented to the degree of others, and as such, we have found ourselves, especially with scale, having to open ticket with support to seek more information on the features or known issues that should otherwise be documented. As also previously mentioned, the user interface is excellent, and is easy to use by beginners, however, for our more advanced uses, we have sometimes found that the interface crashes, particularly when executing tasks such as scans with significantly larger dictionaries.
