This is a good product that allows us to easily build databases as well as to easily monitor them.
This is a good product that allows us to easily build databases as well as to easily monitor them I work mainly with 11G, and while it's a constantly improving product, I'd like to see it as a cloud-based offering to help with storage and memory. This is something that I'd like to learn more…

Centralized management strengthens compliance with good look and feel
From my perspective as a customer and end user, Archer has an impressive look and feel, but the most adaptive feature is its ease of configuration which helps to enhance our process according to our maturity. It's more about our organization getting centralized with an integrated approach that focuses on risk governance and compliance. When can provide a detailed dashboards to management with the details of risks from top-down or bottom-up prioritizing actions based on its criticality or necessity. This allows us to show end users and management where the issues lie and effectively demonstrate accountability and visibility in compliance.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is a good product that allows us to easily build databases as well as to easily monitor them."
"This is a good solution compared to others in the market because it is more secure."
"Flexible record permissions and data import features."
"The last project was for an investment group that was using Excel. Shifting their records from one position to another took approximately 15 minutes. In Archer, we created a workflow for them to leverage it, and they could send the single record with one click to one person within seconds. The whole process went from 15 minutes to two minutes to get the approval for the records. The main purpose of Archer is to just make it easy."
"The tool has stability, and it allows me to automate whatever process I have."
"Archer has simplified our security audits. It's made it easier to raise and trigger questionnaires to customers."
"There is absolutely no doubt that it is a very good tool for audit management as a whole."
"To me, that's a better way to go."
"It is enterprise-wide accessible. So, it is very helpful for all the employees in our bank. They can log in and do their risk management activities. It has a few inbuilt modules that are helpful for doing risk management activities, such as issue management, risk identification, risk assessment, and policy exception management. It also has some inbuilt workflows inside these modules. They are also helpful."
 

Cons

"We chose this because of the stability but sometimes you run into bugs in the lower versions and it's easier to upgrade to keep the system stable."
"Its customization features could be better."
"It would be useful for customers if COBIT 2019 could be translated into different languages."
"Because I have not upgraded, the graphical user interface is not the current one. It is not very modern and as user-friendly as it could be."
"The ticket handling process could be improved."
"If you need to integrate the RSA products with another SEIM solution, then it doesn't work properly."
"The dashboarding in this solution needs to be improved, specifically the graphics."
"Initially, technical support is a little weak, and I would rate it six out of ten. The issue with initial support is that new engineers are often not as experienced."
"The user interface needs work. There are many small text boxes, like credit card size's boxes, where we need to input a lot of text. You can't see what you're typing beyond the tiny window, so you have to scroll or type elsewhere and copy-paste it. It's very inconvenient."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"At the higher end of the price scale, but provides better, more accessible functionality and customization than cheaper products."
"The solution’s pricing is moderate."
"I am not 100% familiar with that, especially with their new model. I just know that the way they've licensed per user to scale is good."
"The solution's price should be reduced. You only have to pay the license and there are no additional fees."
"The price of the solution is very affordable."
"It is not expensive. It is reasonable. We only pay for the licensing."
"The initial purchase is cheap. You pay a nominal price to start then renew the license annually. You also must buy a license for each module. I'm not too fond of that aspect of the licensing model. You buy the elephant and then spend more money to feed the elephant."
"I am not sure about other companies, but it's quite expensive."
