Diligent One Platform vs. Secureframe

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.

Good typical compliance framework with easy interface and integrations to ensure standard compliances like SOC 2. I suspect for the base functionality, its very similar to other competitors like Vanta so really a preference.

• 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.

• When multiple people have the same permissions in workflow, it can be confusing on who is the approver
• When a workflow is rejected by a second reviewer, it will automatically go back to the preparer - the item does not go back to the first reviewer

The new platform seems to be much easier to use. The other had a lot of wasted space and it seems that has all been fixed. I like all of the new features and being so used to boarddocs, I was not sure about learning something new but I see that it will make my life easier.

The Questionnaires feature (which assists in RFP's, security questionnaires, etc) could be designed a lot better. I see what they were going for, and based on their track record for improving features I'm sure it will get a refresh, but in it's current state it is the only features that I do not use.

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.

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 our previous challenges with using an Excel based platform as follows: 1-Version control was a disaster to manage in a big company. There was not always a single version of the truth and broken formulas can derail the process and set us back significantly 2-Excel lacks the clear audit trails we wanted, specifically if we consider the key compliance areas of the business 3-Reporting to Exco took too long, relied on key individual skills in data analytics and reporting

Simplicity, ease of use, and responsiveness. The three most important things for me in any product/service. If use of the product comes naturally and I get the answers I need quickly you're already a contender for me. But, when I can get a response from my account manager in under 90 minutes, consistently. Then I know that my business matters to them.

• We have been able to to double our coverage with the same amount of people
• we have been able to integrate all certification, legal compliance, Operational compliance and Risk auditing into one coherent strategy
