"Automated Governance Made Easy—Outstanding Consultant Support from Ashna Jeeva"
What do you like best about Scytale?

There are similar competitive systems on the market. The automated evidence gathering, policy templates and intuitive UI radically reduces the effort involved to setup and maintain an effective governance process. What truly differentiates Scytale from their competitors are their consultants who help guide you through the process. Our consultant Ashna Jeeva went over and beyond the call of duty to help us define a governance framework that suitable for our business operations, and then help guide us through the process of enforcing the controls and gathering evidence. Without Ashna's steer the whole process would have been orders of magnitude more time consuming and unlikely to result in the same quality governance framework that Ashna helped us deliver.

What do you dislike about Scytale?

There are few buggy aspects with some of the automated evidence tools, but the support team were very proactive at addressing any issues we logged with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simplifies SOC Compliance with Ease"
What do you like best about Scytale?

I like that Scytale is very easy to use, making it an accessible online platform. It's great that all the information is readily available in one place, which makes SOC compliance much easier and saves a lot of time and effort. I also find it valuable that it helps solve uploading evidence issues effortlessly online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scytale?

I think the integrations could be made a little bit simpler. And in some cases, jumping between screens, you've got to go through a number of steps to get back to data that you were accessing in a previous screen. One other thing I would like to get changed is the ability to bulk update data, either a deletion or bulk update of one of the fields. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Scytale Turned ISO & SOC Compliance from a necessary evil to a smooth Confidence-Building process"
What do you like best about Scytale?

Scytale has completely changed the game for us. Thanks to their expert guidance, streamlined processes, and standardised control libraries, they’ve transformed ISO and SOC compliance from a punishingly slow, necessary evil into a highly efficient workflow. Even with a small startup team and limited time, Scytale made it possible for us to confidently achieve certification without derailing our core business objectives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scytale?

The thing that I lest like was one of the characteristics of Scytale that got us over the line. Their unrelenting support to achieve the outcome we agreed with them at the start - always with a smile and wise words Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great service and platform for becoming ISO certified"
What do you like best about Scytale?

We had a positive experience working with Scytale to achieve our ISO certification. Their team (and especially our contact person CJ) provided clear guidance and support, making the certification process much smoother for us. The platform itself is intuitive, provides a clear overview of policies, controls, user reviews, risks and training. Basically, making it easy for us to stay organized and follow best practices going forward. I would recommend using Scytale if you are looking to get certified. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scytale?

Platform is evolving so we were facing some issues along the way (which were resolved swiftly though). One thing to note is that the effort required from our side was greater than anticipated, especially around implementing certain internal processes. With more upfront clarity on this, we could have prepared better. For future users, I’d recommend asking early about potential gaps between your current setup and the scalable processes required for certification. But overall, the combination of their expertise and platform made a big difference in getting us across the finish line. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Compliance with Smooth Integration"
What do you like best about Scytale?

I really appreciate how Scytale helps us with compliance, especially in achieving ISO27001. Having their team on board, who know what they're doing, helped us reach our goals much faster. The platform is smooth and automatically collects our evidence, clearly shows us where our gaps are, and explains what we need to do to fix them. I also love the simple interface—no need to manually check all controls, as it shows exactly what evidence is needed for each one. The integrations with GitHub, Jira, Azure Services, and Google Workspace are a huge plus, allowing for automatic evidence collection with no extra effort from us. Additionally, the initial setup was extremely easy: log in through the email, and it just works. I could invite the rest of my team right away, assign tasks, and start working immediately. I’m beyond pleased, so much so that I would rate it a 20 out of 10 if I could. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scytale?

There was one control that had the incorrect remediation instructions, but this is a minor inconvenience and I'm sure will be quickly corrected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Expert Guidance Simplifies Compliance"
What do you like best about Scytale?

I really value how Scytale guides and assists my company with SOC2 and ISO reviews, especially when some requirements are unclear, and we need guidance on which evidence to supply. The professionalism and competence of our GRC manager at Scytale, who is also very customer-oriented, make a big difference. I also appreciate how Scytale helps us communicate with the reviewers on various subjects like report timelines, payments, questions, and evidence. Every question gets an answer, which makes the whole process smoother. The platform is pretty intuitive, and even if I don't understand something, I just ask our GRC for assistance. Finally, Scytale helps us a lot with these exhaustive and complex processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scytale?

Be a little bit more responsive. But usually they respond on the same day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good Compliance Features, But Performance Needs Improvement"
What do you like best about Scytale?

What I like best about Scytale is its user-friendly interface and automation capabilities. It simplifies compliance workflows by centralizing evidence collection and control tracking, which saves a lot of time compared to manual processes. I also appreciate the transparency it provides across frameworks like SOC 2 and ISO, making audits much more efficien Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scytale?

One area that could be improved is the speed of certain processes when handling large volumes of evidence. Occasionally, the platform feels a bit slow during bulk uploads or when switching between multiple frameworks. Enhancing performance in these scenarios would make the experience even smoother Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential for ISO Certification Success"
What do you like best about Scytale?

I like Scytale a lot because the service supports us throughout the entire journey of obtaining ISO certification. The weekly meetings are extremely helpful, keeping momentum high with clear steps and todos. The team is also direct when we're too slow, which helps us stay focused. The platform itself is very user-friendly, providing a clear overview of where we stand in the process and what the next steps are. The initial setup was easy, and it's well-connected to our complete tech stack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scytale?

In the platform there could be more upfront clarity on the expected effort per task, so it's even easier to plan internally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good experience, easy and ISO 27001 Stress-free"
What do you like best about Scytale?

It’s very easy to communicate with the Scytale team and get guidance whenever needed. They handle most of the complex work behind the scenes, making implementation much simpler for us. The controls are well-structured, and it’s clear what type of evidence is required for each, which makes compliance much easier to manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scytale?

Improve the integrations from third-parties with GRC plataform to allow more automatic sync without required to manually update the evidences. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
