Google Workspace DLP
- +Included with Workspace Enterprise tiers at no additional licence cost
- +Native coverage of Gmail, Drive and Chat with nothing to deploy
- +Straightforward rules that a generalist administrator can manage
- −Covers only Google Workspace — no endpoint, network or third-party SaaS coverage
- −Inspection happens in Google's cloud with no residency alternative
Best for Organisations whose sensitive data lives entirely inside Google Workspace
Watch out Scope is the limitation, not the quality — anything outside Workspace is invisible
Trend Micro Integrated DLP
- +Adds DLP to an existing Trend Micro deployment without a new vendor
- +Reasonable cost where the endpoint agent is already installed
- +Good regional presence and support across Southeast Asia
- −Capability is narrower than dedicated DLP platforms
- −Best value only realised if you already run Trend Micro endpoint protection
Best for Existing Trend Micro customers adding basic data protection
Watch out Standalone, this would not make a DLP shortlist on capability alone
