VP - Enterprise Risk Management & Corporate Governance Information Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Flexible Platform that grows as your requirements / company grows." January 2, 2023 5.0 The most noteworthy from an overall experience is the level of support that the team provides. Customer Service is clearly job #1 from sales through to implementation. Pros provides everything that we were looking for to centralize, manage and control our Information Security policies and procedures. It has shown its' ability to adapt to the ever-changing requirements of our business as we moved between multiple standards and certification pursuits. Its crosswalks kept duplication at a minimum and dashboards provided leadership with the right metrics to ensure everything stayed on track. Cons Hard to say that there was anything we did not like as the support for the product and capabilities was top notch. If we did find anything wrong or needed anything, this was quickly remedied, or alternatives provided. Available training on all of the features that the product has is probably my only "least" item, but that is offset by the level of support that the team provides. Reason for choosing C1Risk The evaluation considered multiple factors from feature functionality, standards support, ease of use, and financial considerations. Review Source RH Ryan H. GRC Analyst Law Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Ryan-Dinsmore Review " May 10, 2022 5.0 We are using to build out and mature our wholistic GRC program; from vendor management, to issue tracking and resolution, audit management, and maintaining a comprehensive risk register. C1Risk is enabling us to do all of those in one place, in an interconnected way. Pros The ability to connect the various facets of your risk program in one place and in a logical way is simply awesome. It's a tool you can use to identify, measure, control, and mitigate risks all in a linear and consistent fashion. It enables a level of program maturity that was previously out of reach for many organizations. Cons I'll get back to you on that one. Thus far, anything I have found missing or lacking is already on their roadmap and soon to be implemented. Review Source Response from C1Risk July 6, 2022 Thank you Ryan. We really appreciate your honest review. It is a pleasure to work with you and and glad we're able to provide you with an opportunity build out and mature your GRC program in one place! We very much look forward to this continued partnership with you! CD Chris D. Leader - Cyber Security Risk Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Product, Amazing Customer Support" December 17, 2019 4.0 This product helped our team raise our Gartner maturity rating and solve our issue management problems Pros \- Very easy to use and met all of our needs. - Customer support team is very accessible - Friendly user interface - Easy to use reporting tools - Can enable MFA and/or integrate with access management systems Cons Our team was not able to work on development of new functionality, we had to rely on CyberOne to make changes. I wish wish we had to ability to make changes to email notifications, the required fields for assessments, and automation. Switched from [RSA Archer Suite](https://www.capterra.com/p/176996/RSA-Archer/) We needed a product that could be customized and used by employees is multiple countries. Also Archer was not able to easily meet the needs of our security third party team. Review Source LW Lynn W. Director of Compliance and Risk Management Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Robust Tool / Outstanding Support" August 30, 2021 5.0 There are so many great things to say about CyberOne but the support is really top quality. The team is always available for training and to work through issues and just share knowledge with us. Training for nonpractitioners (evidence owners) has been easy and overall we feel like CyberOne is really a valuable extension to our team! I have already recommended this product to a peer and will continue to do so. Pros We are a law firm in our second year of working with CyberOne for ISO Certification, Access Review, and Contract Management. One of the many attributes of this platform is that it has enabled us to manage a variety of projects on a single platform. We are currently in surveillance audits for ISO 27001 certification, our quarterly access review process is automated on CyberOne, we are building a complex contract management program and evaluating further use cases. Perhaps the biggest benefit to the product is that we have access to the full platform and all modules for a single price, so we can budget effectively and scale our program with CyberOne without any hidden costs or budget surprises. The modules are also all integrated so we connect all of our policies, controls, and ultimately all our risk and compliance in this platform. Specifically, regarding our compliance and audit needs, the automated evidence collection process in CyberOne has worked really well and helped us expedite our audits. We were able to conduct our audit on-screen with our auditor, using CyberOne. Beyond ISO, CyberOne has also provided us with crosswalks to other frameworks, which they manage and update. It is great to know that we can build our risk register, manage findings and manage third-party risk assessments on this platform. We are excited to see all we can do! Cons Because the tool is so robust, early on with the onboarding, I sometimes would find myself on the wrong page - nothing that a little time and familiarizing myself couldn't resolve. Review Source Response from C1Risk July 6, 2022 Thank you Lynn and likewise, we also feel like we are an extension of your team and so happy our platform is providing you with everything you need to manage your projects! SB Shari B. Administrative Assistant Business Supplies and Equipment Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "CyberOne Review from a non tech person" May 17, 2021 5.0 CyberOne is a great organizational tool, a time saver and has assisted in broadening my knowledge of the audit requirements. I have gained valuable knowledge by starting at ground level with the control library and building the internal controls and evidence checklists which eventually lead to document requests. Following each step in the process has reduced the amount of time spent gathering evidence and ensured that we were capturing once and applying efficiently to each requirement without duplication of work therefore reducing my workload by at least 50-75% . The ability to schedule document requests instead of just in time processing is valuable beyond measure! Because of this feature I've been able to concentrate on other tasks, feeling confident that the request will be made as or when required whether it is monthly, quarterly or yearly. I am not a "techie" person, but I know how to navigate around in a computer. CyberOne was user friendly and easy to use and adapted to the needs of our business easily. Pros The software is versatile, in that you can manage your own dashboard to your specific needs of the business. It allows you to have several dashboards available to work with during the many phases of an audit with ease of gathering and presenting documentation professionally. With the online training it was easy to get started, and figure out what your needs were. It allows you to grow as you build and make changes as you build and not impact the final outcome. CyberOne Support were fantastic in providing training and answering any questions I had. They were willing to work with us and ensure the product served our needs. Cons There is nothing I can say bad about the software. The developers were quick to respond and help solve any issues we had. Reason for choosing C1Risk I did not make the final choice to purchase, but initiated the search for purchase by requesting a product I could use to help me organize several hundred pieces of information into one convenient place with an option to monitor, process and submit easily for an audit . Audits can be very stressful if you are not fully prepared. CyberOne meets all these requirements and then some! The purchase of CyberOne has given me the confidence, as an end user, in knowing that the information I need is conveniently stored in one place and cross referenced properly to the applicable requirement. Review Source Response from C1Risk May 20, 2021 Thank you for this fabulous review Shari. We really appreciate it. It is a pleasure to work with you and we look forward to this continued partnership with you and the Maxwell team. Who thought PCI could be this much fun! Onwards and upwards! Thank you. DW Donald W. IT Security Engineer Airlines/Aviation Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "GRC Tool" October 22, 2021 5.0 I've used several products but what makes this one stand out is the level of support provided. The CyberOne team was always available to answer our questions and setup check-ins to ensure our success for certification audits. Pros Product was easy to set up and use. Compliance and Risk Management modules were heavily used for audit reporting. The CyberOne team provided invaluable advice and support during our ISO 27001 certification process. Cons Policy Management is unable to link to official policy repositories. Reason for choosing C1Risk cost and ease of use. Review Source Response from C1Risk July 6, 2022 It is a pleasure to work with you Donald. Thank you for the honest review and feedback. We are constantly striving to improve our product and this feedback is so helpful in ensuring that we continue to provide a software that services you smoothly. Rob H. Global Compliance Manager Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great GRC solution for any sized organization" January 9, 2020 5.0 Pros Because it's based on the SalesForce platform, the GRC software is stable and functional. Plus the support that I've received for training, customization, and reporting is quick and effective. Cons This software does the GRC tracking that it needs to do and better than other software tool options. GRC software is can be challenging and this software is the least challenging to setup and start using. Reason for choosing C1Risk Best out of the box experience of similar GRC solutions and fastest implementation time of all. Review Source Israel V. Senior Manager, Vendor Relations & Partnerships Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "CyberOne Rocks! " June 26, 2020 5.0 CyberOne helped us organize various compliance standards, that frankly, we did not have the bandwidth to execute on. We weren't sure what to expect, but they have exceeded all expectations. Pros We love the flexibility of the platform. The ability to customize it to our needs and industry. It is very easy to use and implement. Its ability to scale is very impressive as our customer base continues to grow. We are super confident that CyberOne has the right tools to help us achieve our goals. Cons As with any new software, there is a small learning curb. Our team adapted well and encountered to major challenges. Review Source Response from C1Risk July 6, 2022 Thank you for the review Israel. We're always hoping to exceed expectations with our platform and so happy that we have in your case! We are thankful for the continued partnership!

Unbeatable price. Clearly created by former practitioners who understand this space. Pros C1 is a revolutionary compliance solution. The platform enables multiple frameworks to be mapped to a single control with a single click, which can also be connected to policies to eliminate policy gaps. The platform includes pre-populated crosswalks that take all of the hard work from the mapping process. The evidence repository prevents control owners from being inundated with evidence requests and evidence collection is done by 'set it and forget it' automation with for both manual collection or system integration. The process also includes testing and mitigation capacity, eliminating any pre-audit uncertainty and enabling continuous control monitoring to maintain compliance. Cons Wish this was available before we purchased our last GRC system. It is so much better! Thankfully, C1 team is great about extracting value from existing investments vs. major overhaul.

CyberOne lowers your risk substantially by enabling you to manage issues and spot and prevent potential major vulnerabilities. The tool is comprehensive while clear and easy to use. The strategic benefits should be obvious to and felt by C-level execs and by the systems administrators who are currently struggling to stay on top of cybersecurity and risk mitigation challenges. Cons None. It's well designed and engineered for easy adoption and use. Review Source RH Raquese H. Sr. Cyber Security Consultant Computer & Network Security Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy to use and very helpful customer service" April 14, 2020 5.0 The business problems that are being solved are being able to implement a cyber risk program in a more streamlined process creating room to keep our overhead low and less man power intensive because of the atomization CyberOne creates. Pros This product is definitely one of a kind. I have been using this platform for about a year now and it has helped out tremendously. Not only is this platform easy to use but its affordable, impactful, and easy to implement. Lastly, I cannot thanks the customer service team enough for their rapid responses. If there is a question or anything that needs to be done it is corrected in a timely manner and there is also a great reference location should a user have any questions. Cons During the year of using this software anything that needed to be corrected the team is really fast on fixing bugs and rolling out anything new. Review Source KB Katherine B. Intl. & Ntl. Lead Cyber Compliance Computer & Network Security Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A Must Have if Visibility into your Supply Chain & Vendor Accountability Matters to your Operations" February 14, 2020 4.0 The community support is what set CyberOne above others. I felt confident using the tools, and if issues arose, I knew I had a great team to address my concerns and remediate issues. Pros 1.-) Super customizable, easy interface, multi pipelines, streamlined 2.-) Unified communications 3.-) the ability to customize information for vendors and engage via a 1-stop shop 4.-) Multichannel contact widgets 5.-) Automation and visual workflow 6.-) easy to use tracking, setting up triggers, compliance, policy mapping, supply chain risk management and threat intelligence fields 7.-) Great community support Cons In some places there is a confusion between the new and the old interface. But this was fixed early on, so the community support is top notch. Honestly, there is not much for criticism as it can be improved with the users. Like I said earlier, you can cater Cyber1 to match your specific needs. The portal, like any others takes a bit of time to get accustomed. There is a lot to offer, and as such, lots to learn. Give yourself time to become familiar with it, utilize the demo environment, and keep brushing up on the tools and widgets. It takes time, but will be worth it in the end. In the end, Cyber1 helps improve vendor accountability and provide visibility in near-as-real time into supply chain management. A must for anyone that works in the wild west of cyberspace.

Chief Privacy Officer Law Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "CyberOne is excellent for risk management" February 11, 2020 5.0 Pros PRO's CyberOne's capabilities for risk and compliance management are amazing! It's really easy and fast to deploy and has great automation and integration capacity to help lighten the load of monotonous, repetitive tasks that are costly both in time and expense. It's user-friendly, support and training are great and the user experience overall is unbeatable, as is the price. We refer CyberOne regularly. Cons CyberOne is highly configurable. It can be used out of the box, but configuration makes it more powerful. You just need someone on the inside wh will take it on and optimize it for the organization. it is usually pretty easy. However, if we didn't stop the scope creep internally, it could have spun out. Review Source DB David B.
