### "Makes AML Screening Hassle-Free for Our Team"

April 28, 2025

5.0

Sanction Scanner is a reliable, easy-to-integrate AML solution with real-time screening and robust audit trails—perfect for teams looking for flexible and scalable compliance tools

Pros

Sanction Scanner has been a game-changer for our compliance processes. The integration was super easy thanks to their API-first approach, and the real-time screening works fast and smoothly. Features like batch screening and fuzzy matching make it really flexible for our needs, and I especially appreciate how customizable the risk scoring is. The UI is clean, simple, and easy to navigate — and the audit logs give us peace of mind knowing everything is fully traceable. Overall, it just works the way you expect it to — reliable, efficient, and user-friendly.

Cons

Honestly, nothing critical to mention. Sometimes the UI feels a bit slow when handling big batch uploads, but it’s a minor thing and doesn’t get in the way of our daily use.
