SAI360 vs. VGS platform

The usage of ROAM, as well as the integration of external programmes through API and import functions, has almost reduced duplication of work. One thing to keep in mind is that your use cases must be very clear. There are a lot of SAI solutions, and their titles don't always correspond to what they actually perform.

If you are working with payments and you don`t want to store that kind of data to avoid a lot of strict requirements and headaches with tight processes, strict security, encryption and everything else you can leverage VGS platform to greatly reduce the work needed to enable payments in your system. They also provide tokenization for some other kinds of data but we currently do not use them. VGS platform also provides a product for compliance and controls (VGS Control) which helps you get ready and maintain compliance in your organization.

BWise support is knowledgeable and responsive. Bug fixes and development are also timely and ongoing.

The support is pretty decent, sometimes take a little bit o time to solve things (not critical things) but that is part of the ticketing/email async communication so its fine. All the times I had to contact support a got my issue solved and a lot of attention from the support team to help solving the issue.

The main issues were managing the internal conflicts and competing objectives, rather than the capability and implementation of BWise itself.

Wasn't personally involved in the vendor selection process. I am aware that one of the main drivers for selecting BWise was cost (I believe BWise total project cost was several times lower than MetricStream's).

Incentivized

We evaluated Drata as an alternative for VGS Control, but VGS platform control integrates a lot of controls around VGS itself and also with Cloud Infra that we use, which makes the process faster. Also keeping everything with the same vendor makes things easier to manage.
