    Ideagen
    Easy to use and can be customized at certain level[s] based on the organizational requirements. Availability of customized report[s] and metadata to be included in the report generation. Comprehensive risk assessment module and questionnaire tracking for the audit feedback. Centralized directory to store the data and share across the audit department or with specific auditor.

    MetricStream is well suited for when you need to pull a report into Excel for further analysis. It is not good for when information needs to be entered as this is all done manually by analysts and managers. If we can implement a way to take parts of uploaded documents and have the system automatically enter the information in the designated fields in MetricStream, it would cut out lots of manual work for our department.

    • Improve number of outages and time that it is out for.

    Archer is more risk-management-friendly in that it has a better interface and more room to conduct risk-related tasks and pull reports.
