“We’ve actually onboarded quite a few contractors and our experience has been that once we show them AuditBoard, they just take it from there — we’ve barely had to work on any training. They can see last year’s prior work and things like that, and they quickly pick up on how AuditBoard works, how to sign off, which requires less supervision from us.”
“AuditBoard really helped us as an audit team to focus less on the administrative efforts and really get focused on the issue itself. That’s been probably the biggest benefit for us as a team.”
“It’s a very flexible solution. However you’re doing things now, you will be able to do it that way in AuditBoard — or even better."
From a control compliance perspective, using Excel makes it extremely difficult to assess if you have control gaps — so how could we assess risk and confidently say we don’t have any deficiencies or material weaknesses? AuditBoard brings visibility front and center.”
“The first year that I spent at Tennant, it was hard to understand where we were at, at any given point in time. As I was communicating to our senior leadership team on status and updates regarding our process and our program, it became very apparent that it was difficult to actually provide relevant data.”
“When I joined Elevations two and a half years ago, the internal audit department was primarily outsourced. The decision had been made to insource the audit department, and I was brought on to coordinate that initiative. I hired a team and took a fresh look at our workpaper management system and all of our processes and procedures — there were a lot of inefficiencies."
“One of my favorite things that we have in CrossComply are the different frameworks that we have to comply with, including NCUA, CFPB, and different state regulations. It’s very easy to go in and learn about the regulations because we can drill down into a specific framework and it has all the different regulations laid out in front of you. We can automatically add all of our testing work so we can easily review any of the testing work that we’ve done either in previous audits or in previous compliance testing engagements — all in one place. It streamlines the ability to review all the work we’ve already done and the work that we have coming up in those different frameworks.”
“In motorcycle riding, obviously there’s lots of danger, and I like to call them disruptors, Sometimes you’ll see a deer, a pothole, a car turning in front of you, but the way you manage that risk is really understanding how to ride that motorcycle appropriately.”
“AuditBoard from the start has just made our lives and our ability to report to our executive management team exponentially easier."

"It’s a very user-friendly, efficient platform that has solved a problem that’s existed for 20 years since SOX has been out — to develop an intuitive solution that is designed for auditors … it helps us perform our job without having to conform our procedures to some tool."
"When we implemented AuditBoard, it was like being propelled forward into the 21st century."
"It truly feels as though auditors that have a great understanding of the industry’s needs for documenting and organizing quality audit work created the system."
"With our old software I got negative comments related to how cumbersome it was. We’ve actually received compliments from several process owners that they love using the AuditBoard system."
“Our previous software had some common criticisms from our audit staff, Too many clicks to drill down to the information you are seeking, lack of spell-check functionality, slowness when navigating or checking files in and out, input redundancy, non-specific SOX control testing workpapers, and a very basic management control certification process.”
