Streamlined workflow and enhanced simplicity with an easy setup
I used AuditBoard primarily for risk assessment questionnaires in a very premature risk environment. I also have experience with IBM OpenPages, mostly for operational risk to track issues, to look at risks and controls The collaboration within my team had not yet significantly changed since…

Streamlined incident management with user-friendly automation tools and responsive support
I use OneTrust specifically for incident management. For my company, I helped to create the incident management program that we currently use, particularly with gathering the information and sending out assessments to different vendors to collect information for further research and discovery.  I…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"AuditBoard has several solutions for governance, internal audit, and other categories."
"The most significant feature of AuditBoard is its community tools. It provides an internal communication platform that enables users to communicate within the system rather than relying on external tools such as Outlook or Microsoft products. By communicating within the system, all interactions are centralized and accessible, promoting a streamlined workflow."
"AuditBoard is very user-friendly compared to other audit management software I have used in the past."
"The most valuable feature is that everybody can use the same tool. You can give a person permission to use AuditBoard and define their access to the Audit Table. For example, we can allow external auditors or clients to review our completed tests. The clients are attached to specific tests that happen regularly, like inventory counts and asset counts. Debt compliance is only done once annually."
"The most valuable feature of AuditBoard is its ability to facilitate the editing of work papers in a seamless and efficient manner. This is achieved through a built-in tool that allows for real-time editing without the need for downloading the working paper. This feature has proven to be incredibly time-saving for me as it eliminates the step of having to download the file and make changes, instead providing an easy-to-access "edit work paper" option. Overall, this feature has greatly improved my experience with AuditBoard and has been a significant contributor to its success in my opinion."
"There are lots of features."
"I find the most significant elements of this solution are the out-of-the-box reporting, the ease of workflow, workflow management, and the ease of managing our audit process."
"The solution is user-friendly, easy to set up, and provides a single console where you can easily track what you need, including how to proceed for reassessment, how to upload evidence, and how to put in a remark."
"We receive notifications or cases and prioritize them accordingly, which helps us address issues promptly."
"The product helps us streamline audit and incident management processes."
"OneTrust GRC is stable."
"As a solution for IT risks, it is a very good product."
"The platform is especially useful in startup environments where we're typically starting from scratch."
"Vendors can be assessed and rated out of the tool, and assessments can be scheduled for updates at certain intervals."
"One of the valuable features of this solution is it has the ability to review fourth and fifth parties to the nth degree."
"The privacy impact assessment automation tool and the incident management tool are very user-friendly."
 

Cons

"The layout for the end user could be improved."
"After sending out a request to my network for documents, it would be great to have a receipt that shows who received the request and who did not."
"They should improve the solution's test sheets feature for ease of use."
"It is not easy to analyze the results of a survey as a whole."
"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."
"Everything is there, and I have no disadvantage to note as of now."
"AuditBoard is overly simple in some instances and there needs to be flexibility to make it more robust."
"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."
"They could enhance the product's functionalities like audit management and ensure consistency across modules."
"They could improve by offering free help. A solution, a lot of times, is not just the use of the solution. For example, it is the overall engagement, how well do they support the system, what is their SLA, and how long their response time is to an issue. It would be beneficial if they had some type of professional services where they offer the first five hours of professional services a year for free. That would be a substantial benefit rather than having to buy professional services or professional services packages."
"The platform was not built in a way that allowed multinational entities to use it seamlessly."
"There could be enhancements related to AI."
"OneTrust GRC's workflows aren't automated and need to be manually driven."
"The Vendor Risk dashboard is quite basic today and not interactive, but improvements are in coming the next releases."
"There are several areas for improvement. One is the integration capability. Connecting various DSAR systems can be time-consuming if a single integration takes months to complete."
"We encounter difficulties creating multiple platforms or interfaces and manual processes for changing certain settings."
 

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."
"OneTrust GRC's licensing costs about $15,000 per module."
"OneTrust GRC is an expensive solution."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is too expensive, I rate the solution a seven since it falls under the pricey side."
"The solution is expensive."
"The platform is expensive."
"I found the pricing and setup cost very reasonable."
