Our verdict

Last verified Aug 25, 2026

A proven, 15-year-old mid-market GRC with real review volume (4.4/103 on G2) and solid multi-framework audit workflows; held back by an aging integration catalog, unpublished pricing with significant onboarding fees, and less automation depth than newer SOC 2-native platforms.
