Virtru Email Encryption Reviews & Product Details

I like Virtru Email Encryption for its ease of use, particularly with email integration and strong access controls. The email integration is especially valuable because it enables user-friendly encryption, which aligns with our need to become CMMC compliant. The strong access controls allow us to enforce least-privilege access and maintain control over sensitive information. The initial setup was also easy to implement with minimal technical challenges.

There is a small learning curve for new users and additional reporting. While the tool itself is straightforward, a couple of employees need additional guidance on when to apply encryption and how to manage access control properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the confidentiality Virtru provides. I am a SpEd Secretary and constantly need to communicate confidential material to other teachers, school district employees, and parents. Virtru can be trusted and it is very easy to install and use with confidence. It's a great service to use when it comes to safeguarding students sensitive data. I feel good that there is a system I can trust and is easy to use to share this data. I hate to think about being the reason sensitive data getting into the wrong hands. Thanks to Virtru I don't have to worry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing I dislike about Virtru is getting pushback from teachers that opening a Virtru encrypted email is difficult. In the majority of these situations teachers have not taken the 5 minutes to learn the system. It literally takes only a few minutes to learn Virtru and only a few extra seconds to open a secure email.

The other problem I have run into is with sending large attachments/data, it sometimes takes a more time to send. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Virtru occasionally removes the download from my Gmail account without warning, forcing me to log in to my Virtru account and attempt to download it again. This process is quite frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like that when you click it on, you can't change the email you're sending from. It would be better if you could change the sender's email without any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love knowing that my patients are safe when we send emails with PHI in them. A necessary step in the field, sending out referrals can be dangerous when sent unguarded. Virtru helps to keep my patient's information private. Just install the extension, and it's like a part of your every day without feeling like an extra step. I use Virtru with almost every email I have sent, daily. It is like second nature to me now, I don't even realize it's there! But I am still thrilled about how easy it is to use, and how hard it works to protect PHI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
