Nachteile: None, I'm happy with the overall features of the software.

"Great SOX Management System"

Kommentare: Overall I am very satistied with AuditBoard and I'm happy we selected it for management of our SOX program.

Vorteile: AuditBoard's SOXHUB is a great GRC solution for managing a SOX program. It's super easy to manage in all ways, including adding documentation, managing PBC requests, user access, etc. I like that everything is contained within the system, so all documentation is in one place. Being able to manage PBC request within AuditBoard and then link them to the control testing significantly reduces email traffic and makes review and testing more efficient.

Nachteile: Sometimes it's hard to run reporting for exactly what we want, but I think with more experience we will get better at generating reports.

"SOX Hub Experience"

Kommentare: We have been using SOXHUB for a few months and have very happy with the ease of use they system provides. There are some basic functionality features (e.g. additional reporting capabilities, issue tracking, etc) I wish the system had immediately available, but I have been told some of these features are in the works. Overall, we are happy with the purchase thus far.

Vorteile: Ease of Use

Nachteile: Reporting capabilities & Issue Tracking

"A Sensible Internal Audit Software Solution!"

Kommentare: It has been really good! They have teams of very helpful staff that are kind to work with.

Vorteile: The software has been created for use by auditors, so it aligns with practice and fills audit needs. The system well-documents audits from start to finish, provides great oversight and dashboard reporting to audit management, and is continually being improved by the engineer team. They even take user opinions into account quite often. The entire staff has found it intuitive to use and easy to navigate. We love the Controls Module for our SOX control work! Business owners are also complimentary when we roll out automated survey, certifications, PBC requests, etc. The system features can save audit teams time once initial set-up has occurred. It is also reasonably priced. We are very happy with our choice to partner with AuditBoard!

Nachteile: So far, the Risk Oversight Module that we just recently implemented has been my least favorite piece, but we are still working on it. It seems to have been designed more for Risk Departments and ERM teams, than for audit's risk assessments of their auditable entities. We've lost some features we had in our spreadsheets, but will keep building. Also, the tired pricing of some modules based on the number of controls can make it expensive to set all risks and controls up in the system, but we'd like to be comprehensive.

"Great way to manage the Internal Audit process"

Kommentare: I'm an internal auditor and have been using SOXHub for 4 months now. You don't need to be a tech master to navigate through the software, since everything is web-based and support is just a phone call away. The initial process of setting up controls and linking things around can be a bit tricky, but after awhile, everything will come together and make sense. The Dashboard provides a quick and easy way to show what controls are effective and what controls are ineffective. Navigating through everything is a breeze as you can sort my controls, types, control owners, who tested the controls, who reviewed the controls, etc. There's so much functionality involved such as creating specific rules for control owners, external auditors, and system admin. Additionally, you can run reports with specific parameters, to get a quick listing of whatever you are looking for. I really enjoy the WorkStream, which allows you to create tasks for control owners and have them upload their PBCs. It's a good way to keep track of who needs to complete what and also provides a deadline for such individuals to complete their assigned tasks.There's also a neat feature where you can "@username" someone and communicate any questions or concerns you may have. I've done this with my HR Manager, and she thought SOXHub was pretty cool for doing this since emails tend to get lost in the clutter. We also provided this access to our external auditors, and they were able to make their PBC requests and get in touch directly with the control owners, without sending emails. The feedback I received from an individual from Treasury had been positive, as she was happy that the external auditors weren't constantly parading around her desk for requests. Some minor suggestions I have would probably be in regards to the Narratives. The current functionality of editing your narratives is limited to a few general editing tools, but that's understandable since this is not Microsoft WORD. If you are nit-picky on how you like to format things, this can become a nuisance, but updates are along the way. I've talked to the SOXHub support, including James Im, who by far is very helpful, on things that can improve upon. The folks here are constantly listening and taking feedback on what they can do to make SOXHub better. I've offered a few suggestions on features I'd like to see, and within a month or so, the feature was implemented. All-in-all this is a great software. Thank you!
