AuditBoard is a comprehensive software solution that has proven invaluable for the Internal Audit Department. Users have found it to be highly effective in managing a wide range of audit-related tasks and processes. It serves as a centralized platform for creating and housing risk assessments, audit work documentation, and internal audit reports. Internal auditors can easily document SOX control walkthroughs and testing, track issues to completion, and generate reports for management.
The benefits extend beyond just the internal audit team. Control owners and business units also benefit from using AuditBoard as it streamlines processes, facilitates collaboration with the internal audit department, and enhances efficiency in completing audits and SOX requests. Additionally, the software enables surveying audit clients for feedback, certifying control performance, managing global SOX control owner testing programs, and conducting quarterly disclosure surveys.
Moreover, AuditBoard is not limited to internal audit functions alone. It is utilized by the Risk Management department to address operational audits, risk assessment, and controls within the organization. The IT department finds value in using AuditBoard to monitor compliance frameworks such as ISO and PCI, ensuring adherence to regulatory standards.
Overall, AuditBoard serves as an essential managerial and risk tool for the whole organization. It provides a centralized location for all materials related to internal controls, offers insights to control owners and management about their controls' effectiveness, identifies issues or gaps in the controls process, and allows for certifications of controls on a quarterly basis. The flexibility of AuditBoard also enables users to adapt control language based on specific department or organizational needs, making it adaptable to various types of risks such as SOC, SOX, and operational risks.

(1-10 of 10)AuditBoard - Enhancing internal audit and controls
- Control documentation
- Dashboards
- Reporting
- Audit Managment
- Maintaining Audit Trail
- More responsive customer support
- Increased functionality of dashboards
- Increased cross integration with other platforms/software
Situations where it might not be useful are for organizations that are smaller in size where the templates don't fit well with their internal audit/controls program. There is a significant amount of testing required before using the platform, and adapting working papers to fit in well with AuditBoard
Great tool for auditors
- It has a profile page for each control where we can document audit testing and attach supporting documents for each test.
- AuditBoard has improved the editing features of the test sheet and attached documents. When I started, I would have to edit a file on my laptop, delete the file attached, and re-attache the latest file, now it allows me to edit as a pdf or excel file on my laptop and then sync with AuditBoard.
- We can also request supporting documents to control owners within the program, and they can upload documents to the request.
- Dashboard could be more user friendly
- The narrative features could be better integrated with google doc
It would keep the audit testing neat and tidy.
- AuditBoard allows real-time collaboration between control and business owners and auditors.
- AuditBoard has a lot of fantastic training sessions and office hours to help users make the most of the product.
- AuditBoard has great customer service personnel to answer questions and troubleshoot any issues.
- It would be nice if AuditBoard had more audit templates available for use on Ops Audit.
- More timely updates for all users on their new features and release notes.
- More CPE training and round tables for the users.

Capable All-In-One Audit Management/GRC System
- Allows line of business managers to review and report SOX control status/changes which automatically update the controls in the related narratives.
- Shows status of work.
- Exports system data to Excel to create many helpful reporting possibilities.
- Organizes audit tasks and information.
- We used to perform our Risk Control Analysis (RCA) for each audit's planning in an Excel spreadsheet. Once we purchased the Risk Oversight module, AuditBoard helped us convert the RCA to a system function rather than a spreadsheet. At first, we lost some of the functionality the spreadsheet provided, but AuditBoard did continue to help us build and work towards a solution more similar to what we previously had. Though happy with it, it's still not perfect. As one example, I'd like to be able to link actual Ops Audit work steps that cover the risk and controls being outlined in the RCA, rather than just adding a comment to state which steps cover them. More of a preference, I suppose.
- I also had demoed their beta Resources and Scheduling module, but it didn't have enough functionality at the time to work for how we put the quarterly Internal Audit schedule together (using Excel). One thing I recall was that you couldn't pull in SOX controls or non-chargeable work (such as education or administration) to auditor's schedules; it was meant to schedule the Ops Audits only. It is possible they have already fixed or improved this; I just haven't seen the updated version.
