Streamlined incident management with user-friendly automation tools and responsive support
I use OneTrust specifically for incident management. For my company, I helped to create the incident management program that we currently use, particularly with gathering the information and sending out assessments to different vendors to collect information for further research and discovery.  I…

Acts as a software inventory of applications in an environment
I face some difficulty while upgrading any field in the application. Suppose I change an application's IT owner field, which is at the end of the application. After I save the change, it takes me to the top of the page, which is an issue for me. After you change and save the pre-filled specific information at the end of an application page, the application will again take you to the top of the page.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The privacy impact assessment automation tool and the incident management tool are very user-friendly."
"One of the valuable features of this solution is it has the ability to review fourth and fifth parties to the nth degree."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it already has visibility about all the data protection regulations or other cybersecurity regulations related to several countries"
"One of the valuable features of this solution is it has the ability to review fourth and fifth parties to the nth degree."
"Vendors can be assessed and rated out of the tool, and assessments can be scheduled for updates at certain intervals."
"The biggest plus for us is that everything we need for our Privacy Program is in one single tool."
"As a solution for IT risks, it is a very good product."
"The simplicity of OneTrust GRC, particularly its user interface, is valuable as it makes it easy to use and not complex."
"We can get all the information about all the applications in a single platform."
 

Cons

"I haven't seen any return on investment using the solution. If I had the opportunity, I would use a different solution."
"The implementation of OneTrust could have been smoother, particularly in terms of scoping for those outside of governance, risk, and compliance."
"They could improve by offering free help."
"The Vendor Risk dashboard is quite basic today and not interactive, but improvements are in coming the next releases."
"They could improve by offering free help. A solution, a lot of times, is not just the use of the solution. For example, it is the overall engagement, how well do they support the system, what is their SLA, and how long their response time is to an issue. It would be beneficial if they had some type of professional services where they offer the first five hours of professional services a year for free. That would be a substantial benefit rather than having to buy professional services or professional services packages."
"We encounter difficulties creating multiple platforms or interfaces and manual processes for changing certain settings."
"For the Vendor Risk Module I see only minor functionality improvements needed."
"OneTrust GRC's workflows aren't automated and need to be manually driven."
"After you change and save the pre-filled specific information at the end of an application page, the application will again take you to the top of the page."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The platform is expensive."
"OneTrust GRC's licensing costs about $15,000 per module."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is too expensive, I rate the solution a seven since it falls under the pricey side."
"I found the pricing and setup cost very reasonable."
"OneTrust GRC is an expensive solution."
"The solution is expensive."
