Optro makes documentation and testing easy, and I like the workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think OBR scanning could be better. I’d like Optro to collaborate with another company or improve the software so it can automatically pull the data rather than just copying it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like Optro's user-friendliness and the good and available support staff. It saves time for users since any questions can be answered quickly by Optro staff, who can also help us with harder questions like reporting and survey setup. The initial setup was easy, although it did require SMEs from the team to assist with deployment. We switched to Optro primarily because of its user-friendliness compared to what we used before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I find the forms for SOX kind of cumbersome, and I think the native reporting, visualizations, and surveys feel a bit 2000's. They are not very advanced, although they are okay for a SaaS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Optro easy to use and very intuitive. It makes sense to me and gives me visibility across the organization. I also switched from ProcessUnity for the cost savings and ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I’d like more support in understanding how other customers use the same platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that we are able to have all of our modules in one place Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It’s frustrating to not have formatting available in the tool. We also had a poor implementation partner Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The reason I dropped the rating a little bit is I am working on survey templates and Optro does not have a good branching feature like MS Forms. I would like to have a little more features with Likert in MS Forms would have been helpful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Having better design and user friendly features in Workstream for surveys would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The way Optro surfaces relevant tools and integrations based on actual workflow context rather than generic category browsing has changed how our team approaches finding new solutions. Instead of spending hours evaluating options that turn out to be irrelevant we are landing on genuinely useful tools much faster than before. The curated quality of what gets surfaced has also meant that the tools we discover through Optro tend to be production ready rather than half finished products that look good in a screenshot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The coverage of niche industry specific tools is still developing and we occasionally hit gaps where a category we need is underrepresented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to modify the system to reflect our audit process and practices has made us more efficient and consistent as we perform our engagements. The integration with microsoft makes for faster working paper updates and encourages all team members to work within the system. We can have one repository for all supporting documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The inability to view documents/files in other work steps without having to check in and out of the workpaper. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
AuditBoard has help me a lot in reporting and consolidation of audit details and issue information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are still some limitation to AuditBoard, but I’m sure AB will take into consideration and enhance in the near future! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
That it allows different teams from around the org to work off the same playbook. No more silos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I can't think of any downsides. Perhaps not having a dedicated model risk management module. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
