Find out in this report how the two GRC solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"There are lots of features."
"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."
"Its ability to share the data in real-time has helped us well."
"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."
"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."
"RSA Archer's best features are advanced workflow, reports, dashboards, and notifications."
"The most valuable features of RSA Archer are the asset management, risk management, and vendor management."
"Makes auditing much more convenient."
"It has various valuable features. For example, showing us if a control aligns with specific standards or frameworks helps us understand it better and verify its compliance."
"Easy to implement with a high level of automation."
"One of the useful features is the ability to connect to various systems in order to accommodate data."
"The most valuable feature is the enterprise module, which provides the capability of having all of the information stored and linked with everything else."
"The most valuable part of the product is the ease-of-use and the opportunity to create custom security applications easily."
"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."
"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."
"They should improve the solution's test sheets feature for ease of use."
"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."
"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."
"The layout for the end user could be improved."
"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."
"It would be nice if RSA Archer featured more customization. When customers are updating, they should be notified whether certain updates are optional. The install screen should not proceed to the next page unless we make some selections about which updates we want to install."
"It's resource-hungry, that's the best way of putting it."
"The product is expensive."
"I would like to have the ability to build and maintain an inventory of personal data processing activities and assets utilizing a purpose-built taxonomy and data structure."
"If you need to integrate the RSA products with another SEIM solution, then it doesn't work properly."
"Its customization features could be better."
"Performance could be improved."
"There are some issues with the interface for version 6.5 but these may already be repaired and simplified in the new versions that have been released."
