This tool effectively demonstrates the value of internal auditing to the business. However, it lacks support for multiple users accessing Excel desktop at the same time, necessitating file checkouts.

I like using AuditBoard because it is easy to use and simple to set up and navigate. As an external auditor, I appreciate that I don't need to waste unnecessary hours tracking items down, as the dashboard streamlines efficiency for me. It allows the engagement team to log the status of request items during audit periods, which is very beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
At first, it was the access that I was granted. However, once the admin adjusted my credentials and permissions, I was able to utilize the tool more efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love how user-friendly AuditBoard is. As one of the administrators, I find it really easy to go in and add or remove fields and create new audit templates for different projects like continuous monitoring and regulatory reviews. AuditBoard also solves consistency problems for us, ensuring that all audits are completed in a consistent manner. The AI capabilities have been a real boon, helping our teams with consistent report and issues drafting. Overall, I love AuditBoard and recommend it to anyone that I hear is looking for a new tool.

In exploring annotate it would be helpful to have review notes linked within the documents that are being reviewed. Additionally, since we don't use the workstream platform, we would look for more easy use ways to connect our outside partners (e.g., Archer, ServiceNow) into our platform and the way we use it. I think it would be helpful to have some self-create dashboards in the platform as well, not just the canned dashboards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workstream uses; user friendliness for audit team and client which helped improve productivity, saving time for audit team and client Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Pricing and implementation for the controls module automation are my main concerns. I’d prefer this to be offered as a flexible tool we can use as we choose, rather than having it built for specific controls by Optro. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use AuditBoard for a variety of tasks including SOX and Operational Audits, risk assessments, and more within our Internal Audit function. I like how it helps us deploy resources efficiently across our audit plan and manage those audits from start to finish. Tracking and managing issue remediation is straightforward, and performing risk assessments in the tool is effective. What I like most is the continuous improvement of the tool and the new features that are being rolled out, which really enhances its usability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some functionality is in early stages and makes it difficult to use, including things like resource planner and some of the newer proposed functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
