Workiva is damn near perfect
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use and familiarity since it mimics word/excel functions
What do you dislike about the product?
Hyperlinks are a bit tricky to set up and/or destroy if needed (linked outside of SEC website). Our investor relation teams have links all over the place and wish I can just highlight them all and kill the links rather than doing it one by one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Workiva makes is easy to create/sustain the financials each quarter/year end and file with the SEC is a breeze. XBRL functionality is great to make sure similar information remains the same.
Great Core Features, But Clunky with Large Workbooks and Add-Ons

it works well compared to our previous audit solution for SOX, the tickmarking and permissions for external auditors.

It can be somewhat clunky, especially when dealing with larger workbooks. Additional functionality is sold a la carte which would be great to have, but is rather expensive.

Easy for Quarterly Certifications, But Notification Timing Needs Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
Simple to use for our company purpose which is a quarterly accounting certifications.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only issue we have is that when we initiate the form to people for signature, it has to be prompted a few times. It seems like it sends notifications in waterfall fashion where some people get it the next day, that seems odd unless that is intentional.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a formal legal document to review any accounting exceptions that occurred. This platform does help us deliver and see the progress (where it needs to be approved next) for timing and efficiency.

Streamlined Audit Management with Seamless Collaboration and Integration
What do you like best about the product?
Workiva provides an excellent centralized platform for managing audit, risk, and compliance workflows. I really like how seamlessly it integrates data across controls, evidence requests, narratives, and reports — reducing redundancy and manual effort. The collaboration features are strong, allowing multiple team members to work in real time without version control issues. The automated linking between documents and data points also helps ensure consistency, especially for SOC and SOX. Overall, it’s user-friendly, intuitive, and saves a lot of time during audit cycles.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall, I find Workiva to be a very useful tool, though it can sometimes feel a bit complicated. This may be due to the way we have implemented it, but in my experience, most users tend to use the comments section rather than the workflows. I also wish there were more comprehensive reporting features to track what is pending, completed, and other statuses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Workiva helps streamline and centralize our SOX ITGC documentation and testing processes. Before using it, our evidence collection and control tracking were spread across spreadsheets, emails, and shared drives, which made version control and collaboration difficult. With Workiva, all control narratives, test results, and evidence are linked in one place, making it much easier to manage updates and maintain consistency across the environment.
