DriveStrike Reviews
Pros
And when I needed help with one feature their support was super quick to contact me directly via email and phone and resolved my issue in only a few minutes.
Ease of use for the software and great customer service is what makes me like it so much.
Remotely wiping and securing your data is a snap with DriveStrike and their customer support is superb. I was blown away by how helpful, responsive, and knowledgeable they are.
The ease of installation and use is fantastic. All the features work as you would expect on all major platforms.
Cons
At first I was a little hesitant to install software that grants a remote wipe function on my phone, but I think that's a common feeling for anyone who worries about privacy.
Before DriveStrike, whenever an employee called in saying they misplaced or lost their laptops, we would begin a scramble. Now I just log into the admin panel and lock the computer.
I either unlock later once they locate it or I wipe it after a week. It's a major reduction in stress for my team.
Right now we see none other than maybe difficulty in deploying through GPO.
"Where Did Our Laptops Go?"
Overall: We are now able to wipe any laptop that is not sent back to us after a mobile employee in another state does not return.
Pros: Since about 95% of our laptops are used by mobile users in 6 states we had a hard time tracking them down when the user was no longer with the company. We now have a way to render them useless if we can get them back. We are also using the software as a third piece of software to keep track of our hardware inventory for our accounting office.
Cons: Right now we see none other than maybe difficulty in deploying through GPO.
"My review of drivestrike"
Overall: Overall experience is great.
Pros: Ease of use for the software and great customer service is what makes me like it so much.
Cons: In the dashboard, I wish I could customize how I see the list of computers. For example instead of one big list it would easier to just have 4 list smaller list that are separated by group assignment.
"Drive Strike has you covered."
Overall: When users leave the company, the reassurance knowing I can wipe the computer if the end user decides not to return their equipment to the agency.
Pros: How easy it was to setup and deploy. The Bit-Locker Management. Costumer Support.
Cons: Besides a few problems when first getting started, that support help we with quickly. Haven't had any cons since.
"Peace of Mind for Anyone Who Wants it"
Overall: DriveStrike is mighty cheap, self-explanatory, and will be my first aid when I finally lose my phone. It's a great app all around!
Pros: As a single user, DriveStrike proves the most beneficial on my Pixel 4. The software's remote locate, lock and wipe functions keep me from feeling anxious about the possibility of losing my phone and compromising my contacts, photos, and stored passwords on my Chrome browser. I ride public transportation often and I fear the day I forget my phone—or my wallet—on the seat. For $1.50 per month, I am happy to know I can erase the contents of my phone directly from my computer if that day ever comes. As for my wallet, I am still waiting on a really smart wallet that locks automatically—somehow.
Cons: At first I was a little hesitant to install software that grants a remote wipe function on my phone, but I think that's a common feeling for anyone who worries about privacy. In reality, I had nothing to be concerned about.
"Drivestrike Implementation"
Overall: Exceptional.
Pros: Ease of use for implementation. The installation process at an enterprise level was concisely documented for ease of rollout. The simple to use Front End Interface made it easy to carry out the intended tasks. The ability of having the necessary information required to execute functions was easy to find.
Cons: Like least is somewhat strong, but maybe as a recommendation, i would suggest that in terms of dashboard information the Drivestrike tool should provide flexibility to the end user to add or remove information from the bouquet of information that the client collates. I would further recommend an option button that allows the user to see all the fields available and the ability with check boxes to tick what they would want to see.
