There's a fine line when balancing your requirements for choosing the best GRC Software. From compliance requirements to system requirements, SaaS software vendors can leave you on cloud 9 or behind the eight ball.
When you finally get your business-case approved by your board of directors to implement a new GRC system, you need to know you’ve got the right vendor shortlists, capability statements, sandpits available and assurance that the software will be able to evolve with your business.
Having assurance that you’ve done your research, is just like backing yourself walking into a university exam after studying all your mandatory syllabus.
When you’re informed, you’re forearmed.
Below are ten questions to ask any GRC Software Vendor, to help you be forearmed in choosing the best software that will meet your business requirements.
