ACL Robotics + HighBond Results
Comentarios: Overall HighBond is a solution that will enable a full End-to-End view of your audit status.
Puntos a favor:
Hybrid Audit automation allows organizations to run complex gathering and data modeling that enables full population testing without the overhead cost.
Puntos en contra:
There are not that many sources of user stories outside of Galvanize communities. It may make it difficult to adopt as is not widely popular.
My experience

The ability to be right on time Easy to use
Puntos en contra:
customisation is an issue and essentials are expensive to maintain

HighBond platform as used by Internal Audit
Comentarios: HighBond transformed the way we do and document our audit. We used to them manually. Now, we document them all digitally via HighBond. With ACL also, we automated our audit operations such as resource analysis, budget to actuals analysis etc,. All these are documented automatically through Storyboards available in the platform also.
Puntos a favor:
HighBond is very easy to deploy and use.
Puntos en contra:
Some features that we would be happy to see: 1. Ability for admins to assign required fields before sign-off 2. Timesheet approval workflow 3. Ability of Contributor license users to sign-off at summary pages

Highbond GRC Solutions & its promise to organizations
Comentarios: With Highbond one is able to ensure risks around business objectives are addressed with an aim of fulfilling regulatory/legal compliance requirements
Puntos a favor:
I like the fact that the solution is now evolving into a cloud based solution and not on-premise. This affords the IT team more time to handle other core functions while being confident that the Audit activities are not impacted negatively.
Puntos en contra:
Pricing model is a bit prohibitive to the small and medium size entities.
ACL (now Galvanize) is constantly improving!
Comentarios: We currently utilize ACL to normalize data (names) and then conduct fraud analysis on the payment requests to prevent duplicate or overlapping requests. ACL is also used to capture telemetry data, eliminate duplicates, and prepare the data for uploading to our database for use/review. All of these things can be automated using ACL, ACL Exchange Server, and/or robotics functions.
Puntos a favor:
This is one of the most powerful and versatile analytics software packages available. The built-in functions are relevant and effective. The ACL community and support provide literally thousands of scripts and other helps. The new features keep coming and are amazing, like the ACL Robotics (automation functions). We could not do what we do without this software. They have also provided hands-on service with implementation of new software packages.
Puntos en contra:
There is very little to not like about this software. Probably the most difficult thing to overcome was convincing our own IT group to allow the software access to our in-house databases. We had to provide overwhelming proof that the ACL software is read-only to the databases and does not overwrite or replace data or change the existing tables in any way.
ACL Robots
Puntos a favor:
Features that are most impactful 1. Ease of Data Extraction and connections to various ERPs and Databases. 2.Functionalities like Fuzzy Duplicates, Joins which helps to perform Descriptive and Diagnostic analysis 3. Log of steps performed to achieve Data Analytics Results.
Puntos en contra:
Dashboard features should be similar to Tableau. Export of results to Excel - One should be able to do the formatting similar to Excel within ACL for Windows application itself.
Solid Software
Comentarios: Overall, it has helped automate some of our audit processes. However, sometimes it has limitations and we have to use a SQL/Teradata, Tableau, or Excel which defeats the purpose at times.
Puntos a favor:
One of my favorite, and most helpful things about ACL is the data import. It is clean and quick, and very easy to learn. Also the scripting is very helpful because you can rerun processes without redoing the work and have scripts run automatically.
Puntos en contra:
There are features of ACL that make it difficult to work with if you are trying to take notes or change a cell's information. For example, you can't really add a new column with your notes in specific cells.

ACL Review
Comentarios: Overall, our team is satisfied with the ACL tool. We are currently using it to track analytics projects and will begin to integrate more risks and controls in the coming weeks.
Puntos a favor:
The ACL tool is easy to use and offers convenient reporting.
Puntos en contra:
The ACL tool needs better or more configurable way to track progress on projects. All steps should not be weighted equally. Overall, the scheduler could be enhanced with more options.
ACL for GRC/Audit
Comentarios: We wanted a tool to address our management of risks, related audits and an added benefit of managing our compliance program. Additionally, we wanted the tool to be able to analyze data and help in managing risks and developing continuous monitoring types of reviews. ACL fit the bill.
Puntos a favor:
ACL is an easy to use GRC system. The focus is not on Sox or compliance management, but rather an integrated approach to risk and audits. This makes it more suited to teams that focus on risk management and operational reviews aligned with these risks. Sox modules are well developed and easy to use, but is not the primary focus of the tool. Added benefit of utilizing data analytics (which ACL is known for) in the audits and risk assessments as well as being able to build in continuous monitoring opportunities.
Puntos en contra:
There isn't a lot to dislike about the software. Some of the drawbacks are within the Sox/compliance module, primarily stemming from the fact that the tool is not designed specifically for that purpose. However, we are seeing with each new release that some of these are being addressed.
Highbond
Comentarios: We have been able to standardize our audits and are beginning to produce metrics and KPIs
Puntos a favor:
The tool helped us standardize our audit process and have difficult conversations on how the audit department should function.
Puntos en contra:
We can't attribute the audits to a section of our healthcare organization. The reports are not very customizable. very little training on the newer aspects.
Good product mix
Puntos a favor:
Analytics and Robots great for getting Internal Audit Analytics function up and running
Puntos en contra:
Lack of autocomplete and onscreen function parameters

Comentarios: We are very satisfied.
Puntos a favor:
Very helpful in doing analysis GB worth of data. Saves a lot of time. Relied upon by management as it is able to preserve integrity of data.
Puntos en contra:
For new release of product, I need to download the whole installer instead instead of just having the updates. But other than that, none that I think of as of this time.
Great product for analytics
Comentarios: Everyone I have meet with and worked with has been amazing. The webinars always give me great insight and tips to take back to my scripting.
Puntos a favor:
I like how easy it is to use the Macros to create scripts that can be used for repetitive tasks. The free online support center and training classes help learning the system a breeze.
Puntos en contra:
I wish the desktop and web/robotics systems worked together a little easier and did not require you to upload data to use the robotics function.

Time saving data analytics
Comentarios: Overall satisfied with product quality and after sales support
Puntos a favor:
Automated data analytics which is very time saving when analysing huge amount of data
Puntos en contra:
Script is a bit hard to learn and use, it would be great the Help function can include some examples of script usage instead of just the syntax.
Overall Good Software
Puntos a favor:
There is continuous focus on improving the technology and each year something new is released that makes auditing easier.
Puntos en contra:
Some parts of the software are not user friendly and can be a bit complicated to use without using a consultant
Great Audit Management feature
Puntos a favor:
This product is very easy to keep track of audit progress status and remaining audit procedures.
Puntos en contra:
Reporting and Analytics requires some customization.
ACL Review
Comentarios: We are using 1985 green screen technology and I have to import the data through SQL Server. Much to my surprise, I am getting the results needed for the most part unless I am working with multi-line fields.
Puntos a favor:
Training - I have never used anything like ACL so having really good training is extremely important. I have done a lot of online learning but nothing I have taken comes close to the training provided by ACL. It is even better now that the modules are more condensed and focused topically. I am a rookie and have a ways to go before I finish but thanks to the exceptional training that is provided, I am seeing the benefits of ACL for our organization.
Puntos en contra:
There are a number of different ways to get the same result and I am not always convinced I am doing it the right way. I find it difficult to pull results when multi-line fields are being imported. Not sure how to it correctly.
HighBond - One-Stop Shop for GRC Needs
Comentarios: We are currently using HighBond to Build Risk and Control Framework that is assessible to GRC projects. This enables providing unified assurance in the system.
Puntos a favor:
It is very easy to use. The Platform is fully integrated as all the Apps both offline and online work together to achieve the GRC objectives.
Puntos en contra:
I can hardly pinpoint any of the feature that is missing. Except that, I have not yet seen the possibility of sending Audit Plan and Scope information to Auditee prior to Audit engagement.

Good product, great customer service
Puntos a favor:
It has good features and there is a lot of good training available for ACL Analytics. Not about the software itself but there is great customer support available- they are always very helpful and willing to explain/provide additional information.
Puntos en contra:
Not about the software itself but I was hoping for better training materials for ACL Exchange.
