## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-27 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> ## Short answer
> 
> For most remote teams, the right pick depends on one question: **is your sensitive data mostly sitting in SaaS, or on people's laptops?** Remote teams usually lean SaaS, which means the heavy legacy network-DLP products are a bad fit.
> 
> Here's who I'd actually name, in order:
> 
> **1. Microsoft Purview DLP - if you're already on Microsoft 365**
> The default answer for a majority of remote teams. Basic DLP for Exchange, SharePoint, and OneDrive is already bundled with M365 E3; endpoint DLP, insider risk signals, and Copilot/AI protections need E5 or the standalone Purview Suite add-on (~$12/user/month annual). It also now covers non-Microsoft apps including Google Workspace, though that's in preview and coverage depth varies. Cheapest path if you own the licenses - genuinely painful policy tuning if you don't live in Microsoft.
> [Purview pricing context](https://www.nightfall.ai/blog/microsoft-purview-pricing) · [non-Microsoft platform coverage](https://office365itpros.com/2026/08/14/external-services-dlp/)
> 
> **2. Nightfall AI - best for SaaS-first startups and small distributed teams**
> Cloud-native and API-based, so there's no agent to push to remote laptops and no traffi
