User-friendly, simple to implement, and has lots of features
We have limited access, where we can do the risk assessment, check the evidence, and, if there are any deviations, we can put that remark in a comment. The reviewer will check that from their end.  In AuditBoard, companies have their own controls. According to ISO 27,001, in the risk assessment…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"For AuditBoard, the simple workflow made it very easy to code with the group."
"In AuditBoard, there are all the audit steps, including documentation, archiving, and tracking the progress of audits."
"Its ability to share the data in real-time has helped us well."
"There are lots of features."
"The most valuable feature is the well-documented instruction."
"AuditBoard has several solutions for governance, internal audit, and other categories."
"AuditBoard is very user-friendly compared to other audit management software I have used in the past."
"Considering the solution's return on investment, it has been extremely helpful since we were doing a lot of documentation. Previously, in our company, we were using an Excel sheet which made things quite messy."
"Microsoft Purview Communication Compliance helps with extra collaboration and ensures communication is within the framework."
 

Cons

"The layout for the end user could be improved."
"AuditBoard could benefit from the addition of video capabilities, although it is not a necessity. Small companies that cannot afford licenses for Microsoft Teams or Zoom would benefit greatly from this feature, as it would enhance the communication process."
"It is not easy to analyze the results of a survey as a whole."
"Everything is there, and I have no disadvantage to note as of now."
"They should improve the solution's test sheets feature for ease of use."
"AuditBoard is overly simple in some instances and there needs to be flexibility to make it more robust."
"The initial setup is somewhat difficult because it has multiple pieces that need to be stitched together. You have to integrate it with the business unit you want to test if you want to go down from the corporate level to the operational level."
"Some of that flexibility could be enhanced. When comparing Archer and TeamMate+, there is a little more open-ended in terms of certain of our audit processes and procedures. And there is significantly greater freedom in creating ad hoc audit processes and procedures, whereas AuditBoard is a little more limiting in this regard."
"The product should incorporate more automation with the help of AI."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is variable, like with any technology, and is determined by how hard you wish to negotiate. You can get to a price you're willing to pay if you're willing to negotiate aggressively."
"I highly recommend this tool as the price is reasonable. However, consistent pricing is important, and having a loyalty program that rewards long-term customers with lower prices would be a great addition."
