Netwrix Platform Governance (formerly Strongpoint) Reviews & Product Details

* Strongpoint offers a wide number of features which effectively aligns the change management with customer requirements in our Salesforce platform.

* With its Flashlight tool, we can prepare documentation in brief for all Salesforce attributes and establish connection between various objects & its relationship.

* Since we handle a lot of sensitive information, its important to keep track of data changes for managing compliance policies and prevent security breach. Standpoint streamlines the tedious process of consolidating change history for quick reference.

* We can also populate the user permissions between various Salesforce applications for comparing the privileges and to revoke it if its no longer required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

* The learning curve is quite steep since we need to have brief understanding on various object-level and record-level security features of Strongpoint.

* Also, we need to ensure that the availability & accuracy of our Salesforce metadata because lack/incomplete metadata will affect the change management process.

* Apart from these challenges, Strongpoint is effective thanks to its hassle-free integration with third-party softwares, ease of implementation through custom documentation templates, creating customized approval workflows, capturing the proposed change details and maintaining audit trails across our Salesforce environments.

- I haven't run into anything I outright dislike about Flashlight Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use. This product is well-presented to the user. Logical user interface makes for a great experience. I love being able to see where items in our org are used. Getting to scripts, workflows, lists, etc. is easy from the ERD view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes I cannot find specific fields that I need to find to be able to know how and where it's being used. I don't know if that's a limitation of NetSuite (where we use Strongpoint) or not. I would also like to see the product come with a training program, much like Trailhead for Salesforce. The up-take on using this product would be much faster and probably more efficient.

ERD View & SQL Library are the tools I use the most, usually on a daily basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Wish I was able to delete/clean-up records in bulk. The status is a good guide, but removing them as I mark them for clean-up would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Constant system monitoring and awareness Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Feels a little bulky. Slow processing over time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- You can manage tons of data using a tool called 'FlashLight' it helps to manage any redundancy with data or documentation.

- This is mainly an automatic compliance reporting system that can be integrated with Salesforce and Netsuite.

- You can run reporting without any data redundancy as there will be redundancy checks as well as any documentation that needs to be audited will be produced.

- Good technology for company audits and report management.

- Provided Indexing by scanning the Org, indexes all metadata and you get to notice the entire sitemap and keyphrases placed.

- Account permission based on user rules are also available and managed by the admin of the account or some of the users having the full rights to information.

- This will bring more clear documentation when retaining documents during audits and research.

- Integration with Tickets for any requests or update changes mainly using Jira.

- Captures and records all the changes and even places any reports for the task at hand.

- Sales management documentation, account configuration protocols are documented and configured. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- I would want more clear documentation to be provided by the company to influence more users on how easy the setup is since this will be used as a documentation system for the entire organization.

- Would need even deeper database on the API integration and ticket system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I enjoyed the implementation process. It was very hands-on. It was a nice balance between flexible and accountable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the menus are a little clunky, and it can take a while to get used to them. Something so small, I'd prefer the SoD menu closer or embedded in the Strongpoint menu Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It provides incredible insight into customizations, users/roles, changes, and script performance. It also has automated tools to help with removing stale saved searches to help keep NetSuite clean. The change management is awesome and is highly configurable to help show what is important to you. Lastly, their support is awesome. The first response and time to resolution are incredibly quick. We've made enhancement requests to the product and some came out on the next StrongPoint update. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When you pay for quality, you get quality. It's not cheap, but when you factor in the time savings and the value add to the organization, it pays for itself very quickly. Fortunately, there is a free version of this product (at the time of this writing). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Flashlight and Documentation & Optimization feature sets are fantastic for any size company that has even basic customizations. However, the effort saved to analyze the system and assess the impact of changes becomes huge in older and highly customized NetSuite accounts. For those needing formal change management and falling under SOX the Intelligent Change Management and Enterprise Compliance features provide a quick solutions to a key problems.

Not a fault of the product but implementing the change management and enterprise compliance processes can be challenging without the proper resources to implement and manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The control reports, which give us more visibility into our system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
