  • Users on G2 report that Varonis has superior "Real-time Monitoring" capabilities, scoring 9.7, which is essential for organizations needing immediate insights into data activities. ManageEngine, while competent, does not reach this level of effectiveness, indicating a potential gap for users prioritizing real-time data oversight.
