I use UpGuard mainly to monitor and assess our company's security posture. It helps me quickly identify risks, track vulnerabilities, and get clear visibility into third-party security issues. As an analyst, it makes my job easier because I can see potential problems early and report them before they become bigger threats. It's straightforward, reliable, and saves me time when doing daily security checks. UpGuard helps me quickly spot vulnerabilities across our systems and vendors, so I don't waste time digging through different tools. It gives clear reports I can share with my team, which makes it easier to prioritize fixes and reduce risks before they grow. UpGuard stands out to me because it makes risk management clear and practical. It gives a full view of our security posture, highlights vulnerabilities across systems and vendors/clients, and presents the information in a way that's easy to understand. This helps me act faster, prioritize the most important issues, and feel confident that I'm addressing real risks instead of spending time chasing noise. I find UpGuard especially helpful because it gives me a clear picture of risks without making things complicated. The dashboards are easy to navigate, and the reports highlight the most important issues so I know exactly where to focus. I also appreciate how it streamlines third-party risk monitoring, since vendor security can be tricky to track. Overall, it works well because it saves time, reduces guesswork, and makes it easier to act quickly on real threats. The setup process for UpGuard was smooth for our team. We were able to get it running quickly without complicated steps, and the platform guided us well through the initial configuration. It didn't take long before we had useful insights showing up in the dashboards, which made it easy to start applying the tool in our daily work right away. It's been effective whether the team was smaller or as we expanded, which makes it flexible for different sizes of organizations. Even at around a hundred people, the platform was easy to roll out and gave us the visibility we needed without adding extra complexity. It scaled well with the team and fit smoothly into our workflow. UpGuard has been reliable, easy to use, and it really helps our team stay on top of risks quickly and effectively. I would definitely recommend it to others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing that could be improved in UpGuard is the level of detail in some of the findings; sometimes the results feel too broad. The navigation between different reports can also feel a bit clunky, so smoother transitions would help. I think more flexibility in customizing alerts and dashboards would be valuable too, since it would let me focus more directly on the risks that matter most to my role.

I use UpGuard to monitor and reduce third-party and internal cyber risk by continuously assessing security posture. It solves the problem of unknown or unmanaged cyber risk by giving visibility into our own security posture and that of vendors. I like that it solves the problem of blind spots in vendor and internal security by continuously scanning for vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and data leaks across our attack surface. I appreciate how it turns unknown risks into visible, actionable tasks so we can fix weaknesses before they become incidents. The initial setup of UpGuard was super easy.

It's strong for visibility and monitoring, but not a complete, hands-off security solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

UpGuard has introduced new Security Profile control templates for ISO 27001 and NIST CSF 2.0, allowing users to instantly evaluate vendor compliance with these standards. The update enables automated, right-sized assessments, gap-based questionnaires that drastically reduce question volume, and reports aligned with ISO or NIST domains for simpler, clearer reviews.

The product very much meets our expectation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find UpGuard to be the best TPRM solution I've ever used. It effectively shows all the external risks to my organization in a single dashboard. I like its good UI/UX, which is admin-friendly and transforms complex manual cybersecurity tasks into an intuitive automated workflow. Users, including myself, often praise the platform for making it easy to gain visibility into vendor risks within days rather than weeks. The initial setup is generally described as very easy, frictionless, and capable of delivering valuable results in less than a week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that UpGuard is easy to use, so it doesn't waste my time and everything happens quickly. The continuous monitoring is great because it keeps me always aware of new risks. I appreciate the automation, which means reports and alerts happen automatically, saving me time and effort. The strong vendor risk management is really effective, allowing me to easily track the security of third party vendors. The initial setup is beginner-friendly, and even a newbie can set it up by following the required manual. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limited customization, false positives, vendor data gaps, cost of smaller team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the scores that it gives and the reports. The ability to take the reports to senior management and show them the score going from red to green is a big selling point. It is easy to resolve issues when given clear reasons why certain software or machines could be compromised if we do not implement fixes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there were ways to dismiss certain machines that are not affected by the internet or don't interact with our network. There are some machines that are 3rd party that we are not in control of that decrease our score and we would like a way to remove them from our reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the standout features of UpGuard is its security rating system, which provides a clear and insightful evaluation of an organization's cybersecurity posture. This feature is particularly beneficial for assessing third-party vendors, enabling organizations to manage and mitigate risks within their supply chain effectively. The platform's proactive data breach monitoring capabilities are highly valuable, as they allow for early detection and swift response to potential threats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform may offer limited customization options, which could be a drawback for organizations with unique needs or specific security requirements Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Vendor Risk helps minimize and identify risks related to company data and security. It assists in building a strong posture and makes risk loopholes more visible. Vendor Risk management identifies and reduces security, compliance, and operational risks from third-party vendors, improves security, protects sensitive data, ensures regulatory compliance, and helps prevent business disruptions or cyber incidents.

Vendor Risk can be time-consuming and manual. Better automation, continuous monitoring, and easier reporting would improve efficiency and visibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I primarily use UpGuard for vendor risk management. It helps our team automate the security assessment process, monitor our third-party attack surfaces in real-time, and streamline the questionnaire process to ensure our supply chain remains secure. UpGuard solves the lack of visibility into our digital footprint by identifying hidden vulnerabilities and data leaks across our external attack surface that we wouldn't be able to track manually. I appreciate the ability to fully customize questionnaires to fit our specific needs. It's incredibly easy to build tailored assessments that gather exactly the data we need from our vendors without any friction. This customization is valuable because it allows us to focus only on relevant risks for each vendor, eliminates unnecessary questions, speeds up the assessment process, and significantly improves response rates from our partners.

I would like to see more native, out-of-the-box integrations with niche ticketing systems, for example. More flexible reports and dashboard customization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
