See why more and more companies are moving away from Varonis and choosing the Lepide Data Security Platform to protect their sensitive data.
Simpler and better reports.
Lepide is easier to use than Varonis. Our reports and dashboards are far more intuitive and simpler, making them easier to understand and get value from. Our lightweight infrastructure means our reports run much faster.
A faster solution.
Many of those that use Varonis note that the alerts suffer from latency of sometimes up to 12 hours. Lepide is near real time and has been proven to be more stable in larger, more complex environments.
Broader auditing.
If auditing group policy is one of your primary drivers, the reporting within Varonis for this area is very limited. Varonis also can’t tell you when sensitive files have been copied. Lepide can, and more!
The below table is based on publicly availably information and feedback from our customers (including customers that have come to us directly from Varonis).
| Functionality | Description | Lepide | Varonis | Explanation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Data discovery and classification | Locate, classify, tag, and score data based on pre-defined rule sets. |  |
|
Both solutions provide comprehensive data classification capabilities with customizable rule sets. |
| Data auditing and monitoring | Auditing states and changes across on-premises and cloud environments. | |
 |
Lepide offers deeper auditing across file stores, including auditing file copy events. |
| Active Directory / Entra ID security | Auditing, permissions analysis, and threat detection for AD/Azure AD. | |
|
Whilst both solutions audit Active Directory / Entra ID, Lepide has stronger coverage for Group Policy. |
| Data access governance | Permissions analysis, permission change monitoring, and permissions remediation. | |
|
Both platforms deliver strong visibility and control over file and folder permissions. |
| Threat detection / response | Pre-defined threat models and workflows. User behavior analytics, anomaly spotting. | |
|
Both tools use behavior analytics and threat modeling to detect and respond to anomalies. |
| Compliance reports | Predefined reports for compliance (HIPAA, GDPR, CCPA, etc.). | |
 |
Lepide offers a broader library of pre-built compliance templates and easier report generation. |
| Scalability | How effectively does the solution perform at scale? How many resources does it require? | |
|
Lepide is lighter on infrastructure and scales efficiently across large, distributed environments. |
| Performance | How fast and reliable are the reports and alerts? | |
|
Lepide is significantly faster in similar environments, and scales more effectively. |
| Support | Quality of the ongoing support and maintenance provided. | |
|
Lepide provides more responsive, personalized support with shorter SLAs and direct access to engineers. |
| Pricing | Total cost of ownership. | |
|
Lepide is significantly more affordable with transparent pricing and no hidden pricing. |
Audit changes and interactions on a wide variety of on-premise and cloud platforms, including Active Directory, File Server, Exchange, Microsoft 365 and more. Audit how your users are interacting with your sensitive data, including moving, copying, renaming, modifying, deleting, and more. Consolidate raw log data into actionable, easy to understand reports. Access hundreds of pre-defined audit reports or customize your own reports to get the information you need.
All our data classification technology has been fully developed in house and is supported by our world class internal support team. We allow you to find out where your most sensitive data is located and classify it according to sensitivity and related compliance requirements.
Easily determine who has access to your most sensitive data and spot excessive permissions with predefined reports. Automate least privilege where users only have access to data they need to do their job by revoking excessive permissions using automations or policies.
Spot anomalies in user behavior or events that could potentially indicate security breaches or attacks. Our solution can also spot changes to systems and audit security states in Active Directory, File Server and others that are indicative of a potentially insecure environment.
We have a simple and reasonable approach to pricing and licensing which means you get the full value of our solution with no nasty hidden fees. Our agent or agent-less architecture and limitless integration capabilities mean that we are one of the most scalable solutions on the market today. Our award-winning support team are on hand 24x5 to help you with all manner of inquiries.
Lepide is straightforward to use and effective right off the bat. Plus, the level of patience, attentiveness and technical knowhow is far beyond most support and sales teams I’ve seen before.

We chose Lepide as they were able to offer us threat detection and response, and a way of separating out reporting duties to a web console – all from one platform.
