Hi Marina Thank you for the review. We really like hearing when clients don't have anything they would want to change about VigilantPay. It means that our solution is ticking all the boxes.

### "Improved Performance"

February 20, 2025

4.0

Since my last review, the latency issues we were experiencing have been resolved taking away a lot of frustration being experienced by our staff. VigilantPay is easy to use and gives peace of mind.

Pros

Assists with ensuring payments are going to the right person and a good prompt to check for possible duplicate payments.

Cons

We do have some payees that get different types of payments so have duplicate vendor records in our system which sometimes causes a conflict in VigilantPay which we are unable to resolve without help from VigilantPay. Not that we have to wait long to get it resolved, just it would be great if we could resolve ourselves.

Hi Tonia, Thank you for your review. We're pleased to hear that the speed issues have been resolved. At VigilantPay, we are committed to providing our clients with the best possible experience. Regarding the ability to resolve duplicate issues independently, this functionality is on our roadmap and will be incorporated into our solution in a future update. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions or feedback.

Hi Namal, It's great to hear that you're finding value in verifying bank accounts and changes. This is a key feature that all VigilantPay users benefit from. Regarding adding notes to automatic payments and transactions made directly at the bank—you can add notes or tags to these transactions once you’ve imported your monthly bank statements, and these will be displayed beside the relevant batch payment on the Audit & Risk Report. During our phone conversation, you mentioned wanting the ability to hide payments made to your payroll provider. Due to the way our Audit and Risk reports compile transactions, we cannot exclude these payments. Most of our clients find this data valuable, as it helps verify that the correct payroll amounts have been deducted when using external payroll services. This is also essential for highlighting to the Board any other types of batches that may have been paid directly to the bank without first being approved through VigilantPay.

### "Great tool to provide peace of mind for supplier payments and payroll "

March 12, 2024

5.0

This is a really good, focussed tool that does just what you want it to do without any distractions. The setup, support and troubleshooting has been fast and excellent.

Pros

That it provides peace of mind that I am not making erroneous or fraudulent payments by running numerous checks over our payment details independent of our accounting and banking systems.

Cons

It did seem to suffer from the developer focusing on their AML/CFT offering and neglecting ongoing development for a period of time, but this has changed over the last year or two.

Thank you for your candid insights, Cameron. While not always front of mind Money laundering is a serious issue, often linked to organised crime and even funding for terrorist activities. Our software plays a crucial role in combating these illicit activities. We are dedicated to vigilantly safeguarding our community of users but also the broader community against crime.

### "VigilantPay - A governance godsend!"

March 6, 2024

5.0

The team understand where the risks of fraud sits and are very easy to deal with

Pros

This system gives visibility of standing data changes as a real time part of the payment approval cycle for both AP and payroll, allowing me to focus my time where the risk sits. It highlights new vendors and employees or those where payment details have changed allowing me to question the team and focus on compliance in process in the correct space, where our risk sits.

Cons

Nothing comes to mind, the systems delivers exactly what we need

### "Very Useful Product"

March 12, 2024

4.0

Pros

Keeps good track of historical AP and Bank numbers to make sure payments will be going to the correct party.

Cons

When there is a mistake, you cannot correct within vigilantpay itself to exclude to problem payment. You must go back into the batch file remove the line.

Hi Alex We appreciate your feedback. By design a user cannot edit the batch file within VigilantPay. This is part of the protection of the data for a client. If a user could edit within VP then this would then not match the data within the ERP and or payroll system. So any errors that VP finds does need to be corrected at the source. Stopping errors before payment is made is one of the core functions of VP.

Hi Dennis Yes we appreciate that this can be annoying. We are conscious of this, but for now VigilantPay is capturing an error or fraud which is what the system is designed to do. We will keep you posted on any progress.

### "Vigilant Pay"

March 10, 2024

5.0

Pros

The customer service has always been of a very high standard with any issues (not that we've encountered many) resolved efficiently. the configuration and set-up of the various workflows are also really easy to follow.

Cons

The warnings and alerts could be better tuned to eliminate noise given known information associated with regular / repeat payments so that when the alerts are there they are really there for a good reason.

5.0

Its given a real sense that we have greatly minimize our risk of internal and external loss through payment fraud. What is particular great is it does the checking before the transactions go anywhere near the bank. Not much help know that your money's been stolen after the crook has got away!!

Pros

Just fits in with our present systems Gives great overview of the system and risks associated with our payments processes to the Board

Cons

Very little, its simple, easy to implement and highly cost efficient.
