## Connected Risk Reviews
  ### 1. Powerful platform for digitizing policy management

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mathew S. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 28, 2023

**What do you like best about Connected Risk?**

The product is a powerful platform for regulated firms in the financial industry to comply with the ever-changing regulatory environment. The software helps my organization navigate rules and regulations, internal processes, and regulatory reporting requirements. The configuration of Connected Risk specifically in regulatory change management and digitizing legacy policies is a huge win. Integration with our existing technologies was quick, especially moving from SharePoint to Connected Risk. Connected Risk is easier to use than our legacy portals and we use it frequently as a result of the change.

**What do you dislike about Connected Risk?**

Configuration can take some time due to some complexities, but overall fairly quick. Implementation nuances are sometimes lacking.

**What problems is Connected Risk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Connected Risk solved our age-old policy respository issues and connected our policy management teams with regulatory change libraries making it easier to author policies on the go. Digitization of our policies was a huge undertaking and it was handled with care with Connected Risk. SharePoint to Connected Risk was probably the best use of our time as we are now able to service our global policy library with ease and have it accessible worldwide without problems.

Ease of use. Ease of Implementation. Customer support is good. It has a lots of features.

I would say the design of the system seems old but they are improving on the UI bits this year and its looking very good now. Probably will keep getting better in the future.

**What problems is Connected Risk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The GRC capabilities ofthe system are great. it helps prepare automations to assess different data. I mostly configure this for clients as per their requirements but its easier to do with ConnectedRisk.
