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…

Useful for risk assessment and has customization capability
The tool helps us with security incidents, policies, business continuity, disaster recovery, and internal audits. The feature I like the most is its customization capability. It acts like a blank canvas where you can construct forms and workflows according to your needs. You can configure and customize a lot yourself, whether starting from scratch or using some out-of-the-box options. The solution has impacted our operations by helping us manage and prioritize environmental risks. It also assists in establishing ownership of risks and enables us to mitigate or mediate existing risks. Additionally, it facilitates tracking risks throughout their entire lifecycle.

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 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 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."
"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 most valuable feature is the well-documented instruction."
"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."
"For AuditBoard, the simple workflow made it very easy to code with the group."
"The tool helps us with security incidents, policies, business continuity, disaster recovery, and internal audits. The feature I like the most is its customization capability.

Cons

"AuditBoard is overly simple in some instances and there needs to be flexibility to make it more robust."
"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."
"Everything is there, and I have no disadvantage to note as of now."
"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."
"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."
"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 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."
"We think there's room for improvement, especially with customizing NAVEX One. Their development on the roadmap can be slow."
 

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."
"NAVEX One's pricing comes in the middle range when compared to other products."
