What do you like best about Essential ERM?

The support staff are great and very open to requests for help when needed. This system is specific for ERM, and does not include other elements found in more sophisticated systems that may not be necessary for just the ERM process. It is also customizable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Essential ERM?

Find it difficult to add attachments easily, as in our review process, there are plenty of extensive mitigation plans for the risks in various formats. Also would like a feature for 'retired' risks, as currently once removed from the system, it is gone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Review of Essential ERM"
5/5
What do you like best about Essential ERM?

The software is very intuitive and easy to use. I also really like the visual bow tie diagrams and the way the tool incorporates strategic objectives, risk appetite and risk voting. The tool is well received by business users, which makes it easier to push risk processes out into the business where they can be more helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Essential ERM?

This tool does not have compliance functionality. That is not an issue for my use and actually makes the software less complicated, but if compliance is your top priority, this may not be the right tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
