Rencore vs AvePoint

Rencore governs 16 Microsoft services today, each in one inventory with an owner, a policy and a lifecycle. AvePoint fully covers Microsoft 365, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Viva Engage, Entra ID, Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Studio agents, SharePoint agents, Power Apps and Power Automate, and covers Exchange Online, Azure and Power BI in part. Only Rencore governs Planner and Microsoft Fabric.

AvePoint stores customer data in the region the customer selects, on Azure, Google Cloud or AWS. Where it is processed is less clear: its sub-processor list names 22 AvePoint group companies in 18 countries for support and operations, three of them in China, and AvePoint states that its staff cannot access decrypted customer data. Rencore stores and processes each workspace's data only in the Azure region the customer chooses. Its sub-processors are in the EU or the US, the customer can switch each one off, and no customer data is processed in China.

Yes. AvePoint made AgentPulse generally available in March 2026 for agents built on Microsoft platforms and Google Vertex AI, and extended it in July 2026 with ownership, sensitivity context and guardrails. Rencore governs Copilot and Copilot Studio agents in the same inventory as the Teams, sites, apps and flows they depend on, in one product. Non-Microsoft agents are on the Rencore roadmap.

AvePoint's product pages describe workspace governance, Power Platform governance, agent governance and licence optimisation as separate products: Cloud Governance, EnPower, AgentPulse and Cense. Rencore covers the same scope in one product, with Power Platform and AI & Agents as modules.

No. Rencore governs your Microsoft estate and does not back it up or archive it. If you need backup, keep your backup vendor. Rencore does not depend on it.

AvePoint's Trust Center lists 14 Azure regions. Rencore stores each workspace's data in the Azure region the customer chooses when the workspace is created, including Germany and Switzerland.

Yes. Rencore extends its AI & Agents governance beyond Microsoft: Claude Enterprise is in preview and ChatGPT Enterprise is coming soon. They are governed in the same place as your Microsoft 365 estate and connected to the Microsoft 365 data they work with, rather than in a separate tool. Microsoft 365 and Copilot remain the generally available core of the platform.

Rencore Governance is SaaS, developed in Germany by an independent vendor. Each workspace's data is stored and processed in the Azure region the customer picks, one of five regions including Germany and Switzerland, and Multi-Geo tenants are supported. Rencore is priced by module, Digital Workplace, Apps, Automation and BI, and AI & Agents, so you pay for the scope you govern, and you can start with a 14-day free trial. Availability is contractual: 99.9% under the SaaS Agreement, with live service status at status.rencore.com.
