"Essential ERM: Intuitive, Interconnected Risk Management Made Easy"

5/5

What do you like best about Essential ERM?

An automated must-have tool for Risk & Compliance managers to obtain a clear view of their risks universe and mitigating controls (whether existing or proposed).

I found the Essential ERM interface intuitive and user friendly to navigate through. Risks were easy to set up and link with others, creating a principal risk, sub-risks, and a risk scenario hierarchy. There was no need to build complex procedures and coding.

I like the connection between objectives, risks, causes, consequences, mitigation strategies, mitigating actions, key risk indicators (KRIs), sub-risks, and more. This interconnected approach provides a comprehensive view of risk management, which is essential for ensuring nothing slips through the cracks, in this fast paced world that we now operate in.

What do you dislike about Essential ERM?

Not being able to upload documents to support risk or control reviews. A dedicated area for outstanding action items from all reviews for a company or a portfolio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Essential ERM solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a "one stop" software that helps us to track the "essential" components of our ERM program, while maintaining a simple and easy to use platform.

Essential ERM from Tracker networks did that while staying under our budget. The development team is also very responsive and will assist with solving problems once it is verified as a true need.

The visualization of the risk through the bow-tie gives a nice overview of where we are while the heat map tells us quickly where we want to be. The KRI Monitoring really shows graphically where we are out of line and what to adjust to get back in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Jason Doel of Essential ERM

Thank you for the thoughtful review. We’re glad to hear that the intuitive interface and the connected view across objectives, risks, controls, and KRIs are helpful.

We also appreciate your feedback on document uploads and tracking outstanding action items. Within Essential ERM, you can already link to supporting documents. In addition, the ability to upload and manage documents directly was recently introduced through our Essential Compliance module, which connects seamlessly with Essential ERM.

For action tracking, Essential ERM provides consolidated views of outstanding action items across an entire organization or specific portfolios. We’d be happy to show you these features and welcome your feedback.

If you’re open to it, please feel free to reach out to your Tracker representative or success@trackernetworks.com and we’d be happy to walk you through these capabilities.
