THE BIGID DIFFERENCE

Varonis Is Ending On-Prem. BigID Gives You a Choice.

Don’t get forced into SaaS. Get freedom instead.

Varonis just announced the end of on-prem support. Customers are being told: migrate to SaaS or walk away. If you’ve spent years investing in on-prem infrastructure, you’re now being pushed into a model that doesn’t fit your business, your compliance windows, or your risk tolerance.

You deserve a partner who gives you options - not ultimatums.
