It is accessed via web browser and can be set up with Single Sign On (SSO). Minimal training is needed to get started, and no coding or complex work is needed to set up your hierarchy of locations and processes. The user experience has been tested extensively to deliver a highly intuitive interface and a ‘low click’ environment. Ideagen continues to beta test new features with end users and there are various channels through which customers can advise on what they would like to see in the roadmap. • Simple licencing structure: Ideagen provides a simple and transparent licensing structure. This means that users get a complete system for their internal audit work – no extra modules are needed for specific use cases. What customers see in the product demonstrations is an accurate representation of the features they will have access to as a customer. • Easily comply with ISO 31000: The ability to directly connect objectives to risks and controls helps companies to comply with ISO 31000 and can easily be demonstrated. The library of Objectives, Risks, Controls and Tests (ORCT) provides centralised content that can be applied and re-used throughout the application as part of audit workflows. This also enables a more risk-based approach to auditing. • System flexibility: Ideagen Internal Audit is flexible enough that it can mirror your organisation’s hierarchy of locations, processes and any other entity that needs to be audited. The step-by-step audit methodology tracker dashboards for audit methodology, key dates and audit execution. The methodology tracker will support any framework, from the latest IIA standards to ‘agile’ sprints based on your own criteria. This ensures everyone in the team works consistently to the same processes and standards. Each stage of the workflow is prompted automatically. • Enterprise risk data feed: Ideagen Internal Audit shares the same software environment as Ideagen Risk Management. Companies that want to use Ideagen for both their internal audit and their risk management functions are able to access the full site using an Enterprise licence. User permissions are controlled by your organisation so that both teams still retain their independence. Both teams benefit from a centralised library of Objectives, Risk, Controls and Tests (ORCT), plus automated alerts that are triggered when a risk or control reaches a certain threshold. ## Quick Stats & Ratings | Metric | Rating | Detail | | **Overall** | **4.2/5** | 10 Reviews | | Ease of Use | 4.3/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Customer Support Software | 4.3/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Value for Money | 4.4/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Features | 3.9/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Recommendation percentage | 80% | (8/10 Likelihood to recommend) | ## About the vendor - **Company**: Ideagen - **Founded**: 1993 ## Commercial Context - **Pricing Details**: Pricing information is available on inquiry. - **Target Audience**: 51–200, 201–500, 501–1,000, 1,001–5,000, 5,001–10,000, 10,000+ - **Deployment & Platforms**: Cloud, SaaS, Web-based, Windows (Desktop), Windows (On-Premise), Linux (On-Premise) - **Supported Languages**: English, French, German, Italian, Spanish - **Available Countries**: Australia, Ireland, Isle of Man, United Kingdom, United States ## Features - API - Access Controls/Permissions - Activity Dashboard - Activity Tracking - Alerts/Escalation - Alerts/Notifications - Approval Process Control - Archiving & Retention - Assessment Management - Asset Tracking Software - Audit Management - Audit Planning - Audit Trail - Compliance Management - Configurable Workflow - Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA) - Customizable Forms - Customizable Reports - Customizable Templates - Dashboard Software ## Support Options - Email/Help Desk - Phone Support - 24/7 (Live rep) - Chat ## Category - [Compliance Software](https://www.getapp.ca/directory/243/compliance/software) ## Related Categories - [Compliance Software](https://www.getapp.ca/directory/243/compliance/software) - [Risk Management Software](https://www.getapp.ca/directory/246/risk-management/software) - [Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) Software](https://www.getapp.ca/directory/251/governance-risk-compliance-grc/software) - [Audit Software](https://www.getapp.ca/directory/470/audit-compliance/software) - [Incident Management Software](https://www.getapp.ca/directory/1415/incident-management/software) ## Alternatives 1.
