"Great for Collaborative Risk Tracking, but Navigation Could Be More Intuitive"
3.5/5
What do you like best about ISMS.online?

It allows us to work collaboratively, and it doesn’t restrict us when registering risks: their definitions, follow-ups, and related details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ISMS.online?

Navigation and overall usability could be improved, as it isn’t always as intuitive as I’d like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from John Whiting of ISMS.online

Mariana, centralising risk management and shifting towards a more strategic approach to risk treatment is a significant step forward and we're glad ISMS.online is helping drive that for your organisation. Your feedback on navigation is well-timed; we've recently released new navigational changes to make the platform experience more streamlined and intuitive. We'd love to hear whether those improvements land better for you and your team!

All the best,

The ISMS.online team

"ISMS Online"
5/5
What do you like best about ISMS.online?

By far the best aspect is the amount of time you save with the amount of information that ISMS Online autopopulates for you. You save 80-90% of the time you would have spent. The more nuanced your business, the less the templates will work for you, but most businesses will see significant time savings with it. Plus, the way it is setup means it can be used to fill even small gaps in days when you've dead time, making it efficient, so we use it almost daily in the setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ISMS.online?

Nothing stands out as being particularly bad. There are some annoyances around the amount you need to confirm changes, which is understandable, but its a lot of mouse clicks. And you could get lost trying to link all the relevant documents and policies all together. But these pale in comparison to the time you save using their templates and structure.

"Organized Compliance Management with Useful Dashboarding"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ISMS.online?

I find the dashboarding in ISMS.online very useful. It really helps in keeping everything organized and provides good visibility into where the gaps are. I also appreciate the good help from the customer services team during the initial setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ISMS.online?

I think there'd be huge benefit to having an onboarding type wizard that, when you're setting up a standard, takes you through it in a particular order so that your content gets uploaded and joined together easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from John Whiting of ISMS.online

Phil, we're glad the dashboarding is giving you and your team the visibility you need to stay on top of compliance gaps. That clarity is something we've invested a lot into. Your suggestion for a guided onboarding wizard is great, and we'll discuss it internally.

All the best,

The ISMS.online team

"Helpful Policy Prefills and Clear Structure for Smooth Collaboration"
4/5
What do you like best about ISMS.online?

Structure and helpful prefills for the polcies is really useful. Easy to naivagate and udnerstand where we are in the process and work with my colleagues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ISMS.online?

Nothing as of yet. Obviously there's a lot involved in the certification so nothing specific to ISMS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool for ISMS management"
4/5
What do you like best about ISMS.online?

All required sections and tools to create and run ISMS in a company as well as comprehensive templates which allow you to adopt policies or controls which you currently do not have. Interface is fairly simple and structures across sections are similar.

Very good customer support - they reply straight away and there is a real human (same few experts mainly) which provides quick answers to most of the queries or keep you updated if answer is not available straight away.

Very easy logs so everything is properly tracked. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ISMS.online?

Supplier Management (Accounts) part is not comprehensive enough. Pricing changing, subscriptions management and background account administration are not great. Small number of available integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable, intuitive, and essential for DORA and NIS2 compliance"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ISMS.online?

The platform offers a well-structured and intuitive environment for managing all aspects of information security. I especially appreciate the pre-built frameworks for DORA and NIS2, asset registers, and risk management modules that simplify compliance. It's a great tool for collaboration and version control, with clear ownership of tasks and documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ISMS.online?

Some of the navigation flows can feel a bit clunky, especially when switching between related sections like risks and controls. A more dynamic dashboard view or customization options for different roles could improve usability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Overall Experience"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ISMS.online?

The platform is extremely easy to use. The templates provided by ISMS.Online make it very straightforward to create the controls and policies that don’t currently exist. I also really appreciate the ability to compare previous versions of documentation within the platform, which is a huge benefit when I’m reviewing past updates and making further changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ISMS.online?

The only downsides we’ve found so far are the lack of a “bulk export” option for our controls, and the fact that the policy packs fall outside the “standard” licensing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from John Whiting of ISMS.online

We're really glad you're finding ISMS.online such a straightforward way to manage your policies and controls! It's great to know the version comparison feature is proving useful during audits.

Thank you,

"Great experience and superb customer support"
5/5
What do you like best about ISMS.online?

We adopted ISMS.online to build an Integrated Management System (IMS) and the results exceeded our expectations. The platform is superbly designed — exceptionally simple to use, yet powerful enough to handle complex requirements. Its customer-centric approach is obvious at every step: workflows are intuitive, configuration is straightforward, and the user experience is clearly prioritised around real operational needs rather than unnecessary bells and whistles.

Thanks to the tool’s simplicity and sensible defaults, we were able to deliver a fully functioning IMS in no time. What would normally have required lengthy meetings and heavy bureaucracy was reduced to the bare minimum; approvals, documentation and process mapping were all dramatically streamlined. The platform’s templates and guided setup were particularly helpful for accelerating implementation without sacrificing compliance or control.

Customer support is equally impressive. The team is responsive, knowledgeable and proactive — they helped unblock issues quickly, offered pragmatic advice tailored to our context, and followed through until everything worked as intended. That level of service made a tangible difference to our rollout timeline and to team confidence.

In short: a highly effective, user-friendly solution for building an IMS fast, with excellent support and a genuinely customer-centred product philosophy. Strongly recommended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ISMS.online?

There's really nothing that we can mention when it comes to less positive points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from John Whiting of ISMS.online

Thank you for taking the time to write this so thoughtfully. Delivering a fully functioning IMS while cutting through the usual bureaucracy and keeping your team confident throughout is no small achievement, and it's great to hear the platform and support team played a meaningful part in that. We hope the IMS continues to serve your team well.

All the best,

The ISMS.online team

"ISMS.online makes it easier and more efficient"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ISMS.online?

I find the program to be very clear and user-friendly. It makes working with ISO easier and more efficient, and contributes to better structure in the work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ISMS.online?

there is no linkage between the different standards, and the program does not include an opportunities register. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from John Whiting of ISMS.online

An ISO journey that feels engaging rather than overwhelming is exactly what we're working towards, and we're pleased that it's landing well for your team. Knowing the platform is contributing to better structure and efficiency in your work is great to hear. On the cross-standard linkage, great timing, as we have some updates in the pipeline on both fronts that we're looking forward to sharing soon.

All the best,

The ISMS.online team
