    Great workflow tool but customization could be easier

    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    RSA Archer met my team's needs for building out a Vendor Risk Management program, allowing full control and build out of our customized workflows for all SMEs and stakeholders.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Although the platform allowed for customization and met our team's needs, it was very nuanced to create the custom dashboards + necessary approval workflows and required multiple resources on our end including hiring a full-time dedicated Archer RSA expert on our team, who dually worked as the primary admin, and contracting with multiple consulting firms for many years to assist in the build out.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Creating a full end to end vendor risk management program allowing for systematic review, documentation repository, approval, annual risk review and renewal capabilities with workflows to all relevant SMEs by vendor type and risk score weighting.
    Recommendations to others considering the product:
    Do your due diligence to best understand what likely are the capital budgeting requirements to onboard and implement this system for your program needs, especially the ongoing support needs + costs.

    What do you like best about the product?
    It was pretty fast to navigate through the application and easy to use.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Hard to develop customized applications that were not out of the box. It also became complication to figure out the structure of the application once it grew to a larger scale.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    I utilized it to track vulnerabilities for the government's cyber security team. It was beneficial for our team because it provided simple to use interface for tracking issues. The ability to use workflows helped as well for efficiency.
    Recommendations to others considering the product:
    If you need an application for tracking capiblities, RSA Archer can get you there, but if you're looking for something with more customization not out-of-the-box, I would look elsewhere.
