Diligent One Platform offers a unified solution for Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) management, providing a comprehensive overview of risks and insights in one place.
My experience in this regard has been limited unfortunately. Before Diligent our work was Excel based and in my previous company this type of activity was done through an in-house system which was custom built to suit the business.
While Excel offer flexibility I would sum up …
Diligent One Platform is the best to me so far and it really does well to make use of technology and gadgets to have a paperless environment that can be easily updated and keeps track of changes and archives old documents well. Also has a level of safety from cyber attacks. It …
We originally considered SharePoint and made the mistake of choosing Diligent One Platform. We thrilled to be going back to SharePoint; in our experience, Diligent One Platform was a complete waste of time and money.

Chose Diligent One Platform
Risk management is better in D1. TeamMate was inflexible.
Even do I personally did not have previous experience with other solutions, the approach that Diligent One Platform has to show the real risks in the organization, how easy is to manage this information that is complex by definition and the support that gives us to 'create a …
The tool is extremely rigid in its definitions. We tried to implement it for almost a year and nothing happen. One time a team member made a mistake and uploaded a wrong list risks to it was not possible to eliminate any of them we had to take the database down, erase …
Cheaper. We retain diligent due to the cost. The other products have more advanced tools but unfortunately due to overall cost and time to implement we are limited in exploring other options at this time.
Diligent Community is well suited for entities in the public sector who need to comply with the Brown Act. Diligent One Platform is not well suitable for those who are not tech savvy. Board members who are older and do not use the Diligent One Platform frequently, are not comfortable using some of the functionality - such as voting - so it still needs to be done on the back-end.
Enhance business compliance by maintaining records and documents for all our processes and reports, which allows us to not worry about training new people in case resources are transferred.
We integrated risk assessment tools and business continuity plans, which allowed proactive identification and mitigation of potential business risks.
It helped to secure communication channels with confidential discussions and document sharing among team members and leadership.
I give it a 7. It has had a significant impact on the GRC department in terms of efficiency and effectiveness. At the start it took some time to tailor it to our unique business needs and to set up all our requirements. I would say the superpower of the tool is really here, in terms of time saving in report prep and manual testing. We have really used the control self assessment ability to have a strong impact on the business which helped to improve the internal control culture across the business. The dashboarding abilities had limitations for us and we created our own internal dashboards more suited to our operational needs. There is a steep learning curve for the admin roles who manage the system but I assume this will be the case for most of these types of systems. On the opposite side the end user usability is very good and easy to grasp.
HighBond by Galvanize support has some of the best and fastest support that I have experienced. Though we only contact them through emails, they were quick to provide insightful information about our problems. Whenever we email them about an issue, they would be able to reply in less than an hour, ready and prepared with useful solutions to address the issue.
We’re pretty satisfied with the implementation offering and the reading experiences provided. With our quarterly audits, this tool has made the task much more accessible. The outcome of version control of documents is easy to accomplish, and gathering all the records in one place makes it more accessible.
I'm excited about diligent due to the fact that they provide many tools to support compliance through use of analytics and testing processes. We also use FloQast, for which I'm an advocate for, however I'm not sure they have expanded yet to support analytics and testing. I don't have any further experience with other products
A lot of time and efficiency has been saved for my team as we continue to find different ways to automate tests, continuous monitoring projects, etc. We have been able to shift our focus on enhancement projects that previously had been on the back burner until we had switched to the Diligent One Platform.
