Thanks so much for taking the time to review Perimeter!

Our mission is painless VRM: an end-to-end workflow with real-time visibility and verified vendor profiles, not just questionnaires. It’s great to hear Perimeter is helping your team move faster and focus on higher-value work.

If there’s anything we can tune next - templates, integrations, or automation - your CSM is ready to help, and our product team uses G2 feedback to prioritize improvements.

Want a quick optimization session to make sure you’re getting the most from Monitor, Assess, Extract, Verify, Respond, and Share? We’re happy to set that up.

Thank you for being part of the Perimeter community!

"Easy to use tool to simplify Vendor Management Processes"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Perimeter?

How the tool can be tailored to suit needs and the support provided by the vendor Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Perimeter?

Initially, several adjustments are needed to get to a good place to start using the tool.

I would also like some more customization on the source of the emails and logo details to make it more company-oriented. Sometimes the Processbolt logo throws our vendors into confusion.

There is a minor concern about the visibility of the questionnaires. If a vendor is being assessed by your company, any user from that company will be able to see the vendor's assessment even if they are not part of the working group. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thanks for the thoughtful review - and for working with us through our evolution from ProcessBolt to Perimeter.

The rebrand isn’t just a new name; it comes with upgrades aimed at exactly what you flagged:

• Branding & emails: company-first sender options and logo placement so outreach looks fully yours (no ProcessBolt confusion).

• First-mile setup: faster starts with templates and presets across Verify, Respond, and Assess to reduce early adjustments.

• Visibility controls: clearer role- and project-level permissions so only the right users can view a vendor’s assessment.

We’re glad our team’s support and the platform’s flexibility are landing for you - and we’d love to tighten things further!

If you’re open to it, your CSM can run a 15-minute optimization to better align to your workflows.

Thanks again for the candid feedback - it helps us keep making VRM painless!

"ProcessBolt is a great product, team and ROI."

5/5

What do you like best about Perimeter?

The biggest benefit for FirstWatch is the ability to capture responses in our knowledge base, and speed of responding to outbound questionnaires. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Perimeter?

Various third party systems integration over the web, have had some issues. However, ProcessBolt was able to resolve in short order. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Team G2 of Perimeter

John, thank you for the 5-star review and the clear ROI call-out!

We’re thrilled that Perimeter’s answer library is helping FirstWatch capture knowledge once and respond to outbound questionnaires fast and consistently - exactly what Respond (with Extract feeding it) is built to do.

Appreciate you noting the integration hiccups, too. While ProcessBolt is now Perimeter, the focus hasn’t changed: reliable connections and quick resolution. We’ve continued to harden our web connectors and monitoring to keep workflows smooth. If you’d like, your CSM can do a short tune-up to confirm you’re on the latest configs and best practices.

Thanks again for partnering with Perimeter and for helping us make VRM painless!

"Process Bolt Customer Service"

5/5

What do you like best about Perimeter?

ProcessBolt provides a user-friendly interface, customizable workflows, integration capabilities with other systems, and its ability to centralize and manage vendor information effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Perimeter?

While Processbolt has great features , the Intergration with Servicenow is limited Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Team G2 of Perimeter

Thank you for the 5-star review - and for calling out what matters: a clean UI, customizable workflows, solid integrations, a single place to manage vendor data, and the time savings from centralizing vendor information - that’s the heart of Perimeter!

That’s exactly what Perimeter aims for: painless VRM, end-to-end: centralized vendor profiles in Verify, faster assessments in Assess, and smoother questionnaire work in Respond.

On ServiceNow: fair call-out. ProcessBolt has rebranded to Perimeter and we’re actively expanding depth here. In many cases we can unlock more today with configurable field/field-mapping, workflow triggers, and API/webhook automation to fit your SNOW processes.

If you’re open to it, your CSM can run a short working session to map your specific use cases (INTAKE → review, assessment tasks, issues/exceptions) and enable the right options.

Thanks again for partnering with us and for the thoughtful feedback; it helps us keep making VRM truly painless!

5/5

What do you like best about Perimeter?

ProcessBolt platform has helped in assessing, tracking, and monitoring the risks associated with their third-party vendors, helping to ensure that vendors are meeting their obligations and minimizing the risk of data breaches or other security incidents.

In addition, ProcessBolt has helped my organization identify and manage the various attack vectors that could be exploited by attackers, enabling them to prioritize and address vulnerabilities in a more proactive and efficient manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Perimeter?

Nothing that I can think about at this time. The software works very well, and the team has been highly responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Perimeter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Streamlined vendor onboarding: ProcessBolt has provided a centralized platform for managing vendor onboarding and due diligence processes, making it easier to onboard new vendors and ensure they meet the organization's security and compliance standards.

"Great product and great team"

5/5

What do you like best about Perimeter?

I have been using ProcessBolt's vendor risk assessment platform for the past few months and have been highly impressed with its capabilities. The platform is user-friendly and easy to navigate, making it simple for my team to conduct thorough vendor risk assessments.

One of the platform's standout features is its ability to automate much of the risk assessment process, dramatically reducing the time and effort needed to complete assessments. The platform also allows us to easily track and monitor vendor risks over time, which has helped us to identify and address potential issues before they become significant problems.

In addition to its technical capabilities, the support team at ProcessBolt has been excellent. They are always available to answer questions and provide assistance and have been instrumental in helping us to get the most out of the platform.

We also save a lot of money because we don't have to buy an additional product to provide infosec risk ratings for our vendors.

Overall, I highly recommend ProcessBolt's vendor risk assessment platform to any organization looking to improve its vendor risk management processes. It has been a valuable asset for my team and has significantly helped us reduce our risk profile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Perimeter?

The only thing I can think of is that, like most software, sometimes I wish the UI was different/better. That's a minor problem; if I find something particularly egregious, they will fix it pretty fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Vendor Risk Management Made Simple"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Perimeter?

Vendor risk management is an exploding topic that affects every company. Companies can be subject to 'inbound' assessments from their clients, 'out bound' assessments to service providers they use, or both. Given the variety of methods used in industries to conduct these assessments, managing these effectively and consistently can be challenging, time consuming, and resource intensive. ProcessBolt has really helped by automating this proess! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Perimeter?

Like any software, there are initial setup and configuration considerations. To use the tool effectively, you need to ensure you have stakeholder alignment on a variety of answers to your companies risk posture. This is a good thing, but it takes time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Team G2 of Perimeter

edit

Thank you for the 4.5-star review and for laying out the real VRM challenge - keeping inbound and outbound assessments consistent without burning time.

Great to hear automation is delivering value! That’s exactly what Respond (for questionnaires) and Extract (to build and govern your answer library) are designed to do - so every inbound asks gets a consistent, approved response. Many customers also publish a reusable security profile via Share to deflect repeat requests, while Assess tracks status and exceptions.

On the “first-mile” setup and alignment: Since your review, ProcessBolt has rebranded to Perimeter - focused on painless VRM end to end, and we can now shorten that with a quick configuration sprint.

If you’re open to it, your CSM can schedule a short optimization session to make sure you’re getting maximum speed and consistency.

We appreciate the partnership - and the clear feedback!

"Solid Application, Reasonable Pricing"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Perimeter?

The core functionality of sending and receiving feedback to questionnaires works exactly as intended. It's a vast improvement on anyone still operating through excel spreadsheets and emails. Additionally, the price point is much easier to swallow than some competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Perimeter?

The platform is still a little young and sometimes shows its immaturity through some unexpected interactions or bugs. The PB team is very responsive though and always keen to work on new features and functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Perimeter:

Give it a look and see if it works for you. If a feature or requirement you have isn't available, mention it and the PB team is likely to add that feature for you within a relatively reasonable timeframe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Perimeter solving and how is that benefiting you?

We do about 1,000 vendor risk assessments per year. We previously used spreadsheets, so just on that factor alone, Processbolt saves us hundreds of hours of work per year. They also keep things simple, which is hugely beneficial for us because it makes it easy to use the features we like and not be force-fed the ones we don't, unlike other platforms. The API options also make it easy for us to automate the initiation of questionnaires from our internal ticketing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Processbolt team has been incredibly receptive to feedback and requests for help"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Perimeter?

Processbolt has been essential to us being able to track and be able to complete security assessments.

However, most importantly, Gaurav Guar, the CTO, has been very receptive to product update requests that made sense to the rest of their client base.

These updates have helped speed our assessments significantly.

In addition, Processbolt has always responded very rapidly to any questions or issues we have had. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Perimeter?

It would very much help us to better integrate with our ticketing system. This, however, is a task that are investigating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ProcessBolt works!"

5/5

What do you like best about Perimeter?

ProcessBolt is intuitive and the knowledge base helps a ton with responding to RFP's and client assessments that we receive. As a salesperson, it is super helpful to have pre-approved responses that we can leverage to respond to questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Perimeter?

I truly haven't had any issues with ProcessBolt, the team is experienced in this space, and I consider them experts when it comes to vendor management. Even the implementation of the tool was pretty seamless for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
