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…

Stronger cloud security posture has reduced misconfigurations and simplifies compliance checks
The best features of Cloudanix are security posture management and monitoring cloud assets, reviewing security alerts, and tracking compliance across the Azure environment. The most valuable feature for my team is the security posture management capability. This provides a clear view of misconfigurations and security risks across the cloud environment, and it prioritizes them based on their potential impact. This helps us focus on the most critical issues instead of manually reviewing everything. Cloudanix has a positive impact by improving overall cloud security visibility and reducing the time needed to identify and remediate security issues. This has helped us respond faster to misconfigurations, strengthen the security posture, and reduce the operational effort required for cloud governance. I can provide rough metrics, though not internal metrics. The time required to identify and remediate cloud misconfiguration has been reduced by almost 40 to 50%. This is because it automatically prioritizes the highest-risk findings. We also reduced the amount of manual effort spent on compliance reviews and security checks, allowing the team to focus on higher-value work.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the well-documented instruction."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Its ability to share the data in real-time has helped us well."
"Choosing Cloudanix has proven very efficient and intuitive, and it remains easy to handle compared to other products available in the market."
"Cloudanix has a positive impact by improving overall cloud security visibility and reducing the time needed to identify and remediate security issues."
 

Cons

"A handful of things in the solution need to be improved. One of them is better communication of updates to the system or tool itself."
"Everything is there, and I have no disadvantage to note as of now."
"It is not easy to analyze the results of a survey as a whole."
"AuditBoard has the potential for improvement in a few key areas. Firstly, I have experienced instances where the platform has experienced technical issues and ceased to function effectively. Additionally, the editing tools provided within the platform can be slow and laggy, particularly when trying to access and edit important documents. This can be a hindrance to my workflow and efficiency. To address these issues, they should begin by improving the speed and reliability of the platform, as well as enhancing the search engine to make it easier to find specific controls and documents within the platform."
"The layout for the end user could be improved."
"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."
"AuditBoard is overly simple in some instances and there needs to be flexibility to make it more robust."
"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."
"Cloudanix could improve by addressing the limitations in terms of customization."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
