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…

It creates a risk score that helps me develop a remediation plan, so the infrastructure team can move quickly to address risks
Tenable Lumin's dashboard helps me understand my vulnerabilities and which tasks I should prioritize for vulnerability remediation. Tenable creates a risk score that helps me develop a remediation plan, so the infrastructure team can move quickly to address risks. Real-time threat intelligence is also helpful. They get multiple sources of intelligence and correlate the data. Lumin discovers your assets through an agent or a network scan. That's an excellent feature that I'm leveraging now to better understand where all my assets are.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its ability to share the data in real-time has helped us well."
"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 has several solutions for governance, internal audit, and other categories."
"For AuditBoard, the simple workflow made it very easy to code with the group."
"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."
"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."
"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 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 stability of this solution is appropriate. You can sleep well at night, if you have this solution implemented in your environment."
"Tenable Lumin's dashboard helps me understand my vulnerabilities and which tasks I should prioritize for vulnerability remediation. Tenable creates a risk score that helps me develop a remediation plan, so the infrastructure team can move quickly to address risks. Real-time threat intelligence is also helpful. They get multiple sources of intelligence and correlate the data. Lumin discovers your assets through an agent or a network scan. That's an excellent feature that I'm leveraging now to better understand where all my assets are."
"Tenable Lumin is very good because it helps organizations look for solutions and profit. It also helps organizations save time because it displays market data well."
"The stability of this solution is appropriate; you can sleep well at night, if you have this solution implemented in your environment."
"Tenable Lumin is very good because it helps organizations look for solutions and profit, and it also helps organizations save time because it displays market data well."
 

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."
"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."
"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."
"It is not easy to analyze the results of a survey as a whole."
"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."
"AuditBoard is overly simple in some instances and there needs to be flexibility to make it more robust."
"They should improve the solution's test sheets feature for ease of use."
"The price could be better."
"The solution's cloud operation has issues Lumin and Tenable are not one product."
"The price could be better."
"Tenable Lumin isn't that old and still needs some time to mature."
"The solution's cloud operation has issues Lumin and Tenable are not one product. The integration needs to be worked out better. There is space for improvement there."
 

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."
"The price could be better."
