**Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2020

Give it a shot.  It's a great program for analysis and monitoring.

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Continuous monitoring for compliance.  Anything we want to automate that involved data is defaulted to a HighBond project.

**Reviewed by:** Robert W. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 13, 2020

Integration of analytics and audit management software

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

Visual displays of data are still weak as compared to other visualization software (e.g. Tableau)

**Recommendations to others considering Diligent One Platform:**

Keep in mind that integration between analytics and audit management is often a weak point of other systems.

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are implementing continuous monitoring processes and managing output from it for a much faster and consistent program.

  ### 11. HighBond Review

**Reviewed Date:** May 13, 2020

That we are currently not on the platform.

I can see the benefits of the integration analytics. We are not on HighBond so cannot describe any issues.

**Reviewed Date:** May 14, 2020

HighBond is a very dynamic platform that allows great flexibility to build around your GRC program. Virtually any type of record can be designed, implemented, and then linked in a universe to manage multiple processes.

More off the shelf modules and additional administrator training would allow for a quicker integration of the platform.

**Recommendations to others considering Diligent One Platform:**

Build your tool off of existing processes. Be flexible in modifying a process to accommodate the tool's abilities.

**Reviewed Date:** May 13, 2020

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

Ability to script, and log analysis steps

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

Scripting language is unconventional and does not conform to other languages. It is more of a macro than a  script and often one must think "how can I trick it into doing XXXX"

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Automated monitoring of controls

  ### 16. Great resources to assist my learning of ACL

The visualizations in GRC needs to be worked on. I often have to import my data into Tableau  to create visualizations for my results.

**Recommendations to others considering Diligent One Platform:**

I think Highbond is a great tool that can help you scale as an organization.

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use  ACL analytics  and Highbond for our OFAC compliance process.

  ### 19. Smart and Versatile Tool for Compliance and Regulatory Governance, Monitor & Reporting

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Faye P. | Compliance Analyst II, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 25, 2019

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

1. Enable centralized location for data, projects, communications, and analysis - great for monitor and control
2.  Customization is easy and flexible to fit our needs 
3.  Access to many knowledgeable Galvanize customer/tech support personnel and a community of agile users.
4.  Support from Customer Success, Product, R&D and many other parts of Galvanize has been tremendously helpful and quick. They take my inquiries, no matter how minor, seriously and go above and beyond each and every time!
5.  Continuous release of newer and better version of HighBond almost every quarter -- The speed of innovation AND execution is unlike any company/vendor I ever worked with.  

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

HighBond is great in many ways, but in order to get to that point where one can use it professionally, a lot of time need to be invested in training and hands-on practices. (But once training is completed, it's so beneficial to the team and to the individual.)  For contributor users, it is fairly simple but from time to time we still have to do a little demo to convert them to use HighBond.  


**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a Compliance Analyst for internal control, sorting through and maintaining an overwhelming number of regulatory publishing/news/notices can take half of workday, if not more.  Keeping different sets of data on various standalone software can also be complicating an already complicated matter that calls for immediate attention.  HighBond allowed me to encourage team members to centralize all documents, correspondences, analytical evidence and alike in ONE place where we can connect, further discuss among teams, and take resolution actions.  Project management moved smoothly and more efficiently with issues being reported, tracked, and retested as needed.  If the auto-generated reports in Projects do not serve our purposes, we can create customized reports (in Reports module) for better views of Action Items related to particular project(s) so a "flat layout" of the project can be seen for quicker action, and it's a great tool when we meet face to face for discussion.

The Storyboard in Results module works wonderfully for us as visualizations can be created as results of data gathered from tables (Analytics).  This enables us to get points across when communicating with upper & middle management, especially when the data shown are being updated, through scheduled jobs, on a daily/weekly basis. (Gone are the days for creating PowerPoint slides!)  So far, we are using the Storyboards to create Table of Supervision and I also use it to create a monthly communication/reading file to eliminate: (1) the use of MS Publisher and (2) sending multiple (and excessive) emails when I can just ask team members to visit a link.

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 15, 2019

I like the simplicity of the product and user intuitively. It is quite easy for people to get familiar with the b2b saas product and the customer can easily integrate the tool into their various production quality workflows

  ### 30. New User, ACL is easy intuitive and eash to navigate

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Paul H. | Internal Auditor - IT SOX Compliance, Wholesale, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 11, 2018

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

I've used Launchpad's Academy, the comprehensive online training area extensively.  I like earning CPE while learning how to use ACL.  Earning badges and points is a fun way to show success! 

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

I'm new to ACL, but not new to aAnalytics.  So learning how ACL works is my pain point.  But the pain is going away as I journey through the Academy!.

**Recommendations to others considering Diligent One Platform:**

none

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Great way to keep track of controls from start to finish.  Manager is able to keep track of my work without me providing status updates.  Tracks my efficiency and leaves no questions - its all good

  ### 31. ACL GRC

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gregory C. | Senior Internal Auditor, Banking, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 14, 2018

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

Simple. It allows the small to medium size organization to collaborate on risk management activities, measure, track, remediate and monitor risks throughout the enterprise. 

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

Workflow is rudimentary if your organization wants to perform the actual management of risk project activities, including audit work i.e., audit work papers. While ACL GRC does track strategic risks and tactical risk, it should do a better job at relating those risk to each other (there is no cascading of strategic risk to tactical risk within the system). 

**Recommendations to others considering Diligent One Platform:**

There are a lot of GRC products out there and they are expensive.  In all cases the organization needs to understand its own processes first then integrate them into a GRC platform. There are not "out-of-the-box" solutions that will guide you through how to make a risk assessment, how to rate risks, how to design controls, how to remediate and issue.  These are things the organization should be doing anyway. Don't expect any GRC vendor to establish those things. The GRC space is new for ACL but they listen to their clients and have the basics down. 

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Audit risk management, issue tracking and remediation. Audit work repository.

  ### 32. Potential for controls and compliance governance

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kirby M. | Business Analytics Lead, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2018

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

Surveys can be sent to and answered by non-ACL GRC user.

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

For a lack of answer, I say that it still confuse me to create a survey connected to an ACL Analytics project. But, honestly, I cannot think of anything seriously that I dislike.

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I haven't personally utilized ACL GRC yet but based on our training, it can help our organization in monitoring of submissions of requirements related to controls and compliance.

  ### 33. ACL GRC Review

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

I like that GRC has a tool to monitor and auto-remind actions and request. It is more collaborative. It makes audit more organized and simpler. Reports are sophisticated and can be generated by just a click. You can even choose different audit types.

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

Audit reports are customize, no much freedom for desired report format. Table form write-ups sometimes would not fit to the PDF customize GRC report.

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We're enhancing quality, accuracy and timeliness of Audit Report, We use GRC for Fraud whistle blowing, OCC monitoring, produce graphical report/presentation and assigning the issues to respective department regarding long outstanding receivables.

  ### 34. Capable Tool for Skilled Users

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Machinery | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 14, 2018

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

Strong analytical tools for analysis which adds value to our conclusions presented to management. In addition to this, we like the interfaces that ACL can interact with, most notable Tableau and Microsoft Excel. 

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

Steep learning curve for processes that seem intuitive and often times are faster to perform in Excel. ACL is efficient for handling large tasks such as analytical tests across company wide data. The benefit however, wanes when we have to revisit the tutorial for how to run certain procedures

**Recommendations to others considering Diligent One Platform:**

Take time to learn the software and keep notes of lessons taken. My biggest concern with the tool is that it doesn't become more intuitive over time. Revisiting areas we've covered makes me less confident in utilizing ACL for more tasks. 

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Auditing analytics, able to process large amounts of data without spreadsheet failures or crashes. Insightful reporting and syncing with other platforms such as Tableau. 

  ### 35. Strong Data Remediation Tools

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Erik K. | Senior Project Manager, Information Technology and Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 11, 2018

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

Configurations available to trigger tasks, workflows. Filters work great.
Configuration that can be managed directly by Business without intervention from IT.

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

1. The differentiation of 2-3 roles with ACL GRC needs more clarity. It's not straight forward to understand.
2. SSO not straight forward, very complex. SSO does not allow to connect easily to 2 or more environments with the same SSO.


**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

- Remediation (workflow, triggers, etc) of data anomalies discovered through the ACL Analytics.
- Automation of remediation and automation of logs.

  ### 36. ACL GRC

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Utilities | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2018

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

Ability to send questionnaires on a recurring schedule to Control Owners. 

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

1) Complexity of set-up and maintenance. 
2) Inflexible scaling of custom control attributes
3) Lack of mass-edit for control language and attributes maintenance
4) Lack of mass-mapping for risks to controls
5) Highly complex & specialized maintenance of core scripts (not something I really want to get into with a GRC solution)
6) Siloed database modules that don't offer drill-in interface from one module to another

**Recommendations to others considering Diligent One Platform:**

Stay away from the Analytics script as a means for administering your GRC solution unless you have someone on staff that can write code in ACL's custom code.   

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Automating control assessments by control owners.  

  ### 37. Director of Internal Audit

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Monique V. | Director of Internal Audit, Banking, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 09, 2018

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

Ease of use. We were able to teach ourselves how to use GRC!

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

The help feature could be better. It would also be easier if there were a printable version.

**Recommendations to others considering Diligent One Platform:**

Pro
•	It is cloud based
•	It can be accessed even without logging on to company website (your company)
•	It can track and manage issues better, data saved is real time on the host platform
•	It can be used by multiple function within the company with each function having its own access (ERM, SOX, Compliance, Fraud)
•	There is a chat room so people can post questions from various companies and you can see if the problems can be fixed
•	Its flexible


**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a document repository. The cloud function allows us to store numerous documents without worrying about crashing the system!

  ### 38. ACL GRC Review

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Goods | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2018

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

I like how you can easily link ACL GRC to Results and build a storyboard

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

There isn't much I dislike at the moment apart from the record limitations. My questions are usually answered by ACL support

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ACL GRC is very effective for Project management this is something we are testing out. We have been using Results for over an year now and it is effective to build dashboards for internal customers.

  ### 39. Excellent for managing the whole audit project

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Manuel Andrés A. | Senior Regional Internal Auditor S&W Latam, Food Production, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 09, 2018

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

The cloud-based ACL-GRC platform. Is time-saving, modern and it is very customizable.
You can use it to manage the documentation of your projects.
It can be used from a cell phone.

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

Massive modifications (deleting issues, modifying items) are needed. If you have 300 action plans, and you want to add a user to 70 of them, it would be nice to have an option for massive modifications. 
Cell phone app is not so responsive nor modern, it is complicated to use.

**Recommendations to others considering Diligent One Platform:**

Ask for a demo (I think you can do this), I consider this as a millennial software for auditing. It needs improvements but it is really good to conduct audits.

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We handle the IA documentation entirely by ACL-GRC, this is definitely time-saving for us. 

  ### 40. ACL GRC for Internal Audit

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Machinery | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 11, 2018

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

I like having all of our audits in one centralized place that is accessible anywhere. 

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

The drilling down to get where you need to go does take time. 

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Streamlining our audit processes is what we are trying to do. Having done it for 1 year already, the 2nd year has been easier for us

  ### 41. Implementation was smooth

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 06, 2018

**What do you like best about Diligent One Platform?**

Been very intuitive for most employees to pick up and use right from the gate. Vendor has been very easy to work with and open to fielding (and implementing quickly) product ideas and enhancements that we suggest. 

While not perfect, ACL GRC does a good job of balancing basic functionality with customizability. Fundamentally, the tool is built on solid design principles (e.g. repurposing of information as needed/not duplication of data entry; flexible in-house reporting customization)

**What do you dislike about Diligent One Platform?**

As mentioned, pricing structure for Impact Reports. Also, limited ability to schedule/manage resources (overall project/resource calendar) within the tool (believe a future update is planned).

**What problems is Diligent One Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Keep an open mind. Don't try to find the solution that best fits or mirrors your current process/methodology. Look for the one that work the best/easiest and be willing to adapt current processes and procedures to best fit/compliment the strengths of the tool you ultimately select.

  ### 42. Cost effective and user friendly

Centralized  Audit work papers and not manual files.
Cloud based and can be accessed from anywhere.
Easy to tailor it to our own project needs.
Monitoring Audit issues.
Tim management.
Training management.
Link to  ACL Analytics.

The classifications are global.  They should be tailored to a repository

The tool sends emails directly to employees and attaches the comments/responses right to the record
