Likelihood to Recommend Product is a great tool to serve as a central point to compile and document sox controls. This allows transparency across the team and teammates to edit and view progress. The tool also provides an interface that will make it easy for the internal audit team to track and compile control requests. I particularly like how it lets all of the control owners take ownership of their controls. I am currently exploring some of the advanced tools that support testing and the accuracy and completeness of our data, which i'm very excited to explore.

Read full review Pros HighBond is great for managing requests, to do’s, and review notes HighBond is generally flexible with the configuration and terminology you can use. HighBond is a good tool for centralizing risks, controls, test plans, and procedures in a framework that allows you to standardize its usage. Read full review Unique expert knowledge of their target platforms. Not many companies have such a unique position in their target market. Their employees have a deep understanding of SharePoint, Office 365 and Azure and also regularly advise Microsoft on these matters. Community involvement and contribution to open source projects. Key employees at Rencore are considered thought leaders in their area of expertise and contribute to high profile Microsoft open source initiatives. Rencore's unique position when it comes to code quality analysis in the SharePoint space sets it apart. There's really no alternative. Platform governance is another Rencore strength. No other product provides the insights into your SharePoint Online environment with full auditing of not only configuration changes but also who changed which code where and when. Again no alternatives exist. Thomas Vochten Solution architect Office 365 & SharePoint | Microsoft MVP
Read full review Cons The current setup does not have a risk management option. There is not an easy way to catalog all audits and then cycle through them. The set up of tabs within a project can be a bit cumbersome and excessive. Read full review Rencore's product line is of course still a bit of a niche: SharePoint code quality is not something every organization on the planet is concerned with - although Rencore does much more than that. We feel Rencore's marketing efforts are mainly targeted at technologists. There's a lot of other potential, especially for their platform governance product.

Read full review Support Rating 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.

Read full review Implementation Rating I was not involved in the implementation, but i do think the interface works well and is a great tool to centralize our compliance program. I'm currently in the process of exploring many of the advanced features and using the Diligent Academy to learn about some of these exciting features to add value to our organization. I recently attended a CPE and was very impressed with the presenters and their energy and knowledge of the product
Read full review Alternatives Considered Diligent Highbond stacks up somewhat poorly against our other tools. In addition to what was included above, we use some smaller tools that fulfill many of the gaps left by Diligent Highbond. We have since started to move away from Diligent Highbond.
Alteryx is better at processing data and their server tool can be used to publish results for review.
Read full review I don't know of any products that compete in the space and if there were any, they would not stand a chance against Rencore. Behind any good product is a team of highly skilled individuals, who all have the same goal, who are passionate what they do and lastly, are in it for the betterment of where they started; As Developers themselves. You can't buy that
Read full review Return on Investment It has saved me time generating status reports It has saved me time in coordinating with others to obtain information, since it tracks requests and sends reminders It saves time with to dos and open reviews to keep track of tasks to be completed Read full review The clear impact was the amount of time saved code reviewing or going through lines of code marked off by other tools that are not relevant. We cannot put a number on it since the project started off with the tool in place but based on the rules applied it could be as high as 20% of the project time.
