Acuity never take their eye off the ball with the featureset of their GRC solution "STREAM".

What do you dislike about Acuity Risk Management?

The transition to raw web delivery is a little slow, but it is heading in the right direction and will deliver all that is expected from the product set. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Acuity Risk Management:

Tell them exactly what you want and don't assume it's like every other GRC out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Acuity Risk Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

Risk Management engagement is always a challenge within the organisation and often people simply don't know where to start. The Acuity team understand there are many ways to apply risk management techniques and pretty much facilitate all of them within their platform, and will ensure that whichever is chosen, it will yield the most usable operational mechanism it can. Unlike others, it lets a company work how they want to rather than force you to change practices to fit the tooling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Acuity Risk Management?

STREAM helps us to check our Organization compliance with the ISO 27001, conducting the risk assessment of our assets in a straightforward way, avoiding to do calculations and presenting results and a clear and understandeble for everyone way.

The aspect that should be improve is to have the Utlity module as a separeted feature, which is an Excel file, that is difficult to undestand for the user. I suggest to integrate this module in STREAM as part of the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Acuity Risk Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

Acuity facilitates the risk management process avoiding to do a lot of calculations, that in our case, because of the number of the assets and risk registers we have, would be very complicated to perform.

Acuity automatically calculates the residual risks in few a straightforward steps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Acuity Risk Management?

Stream is a platform for managing compliance requirements. It lends itself to storage of customer requirements, security frameworks etc. Its strength lies in its ability to link these requirements with identified risks and controls together plus maintain any documentary evidence to demonstrate compliance.

Acuity provide many templates for international security frameworks including those from NIST, ISO and IASME.

One of the best aspects of working with Acuity is that they listen carefully to their users eg feature requests. Acuity Discovery Club provides the opportunity for Stream users to share knowlege and experience with other organisations using Stream e.g. how they exploit the software within their own organisations. The most recent event covered changes to ISO standard 27001 and provided a masterclass demonstration of how Acuity use Stream within their own organisation to manage and maintain compliance with 27001. There was also time within the agenda for attendees to swap experiences of how they have implemented the standard, especally powerful for those setting out on the route to certification. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Acuity Risk Management?

Stream is a powerful solution that benefits from being set up according to best practices, therefore in order to get the best from Stream, training is a must. This can provided by the Acuity team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Acuity Risk Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

Stream is providing support for ISO 27001 certification. It is also a central repository for all customer security requirements. The solution enables a large number of controls to be managed by a slim headcount. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Acuity Risk Management?

Acuity is an incredibly flexible tool to model assets, requirements, risks, controls, and assessments in a way that maps and supports existing enterprise processes and structures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Acuity Risk Management?

In the beginning, it's hard to see the forest for the trees. The multitude of possibilities can be overwhelming. It would be very helpful not only to have technical documentation on how to use which function but also to have a method manual available to help guide you through the jungle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Acuity Risk Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

If risk management is not only to make auditors happy but also to support fact-based decisions of the company, then there is no way around a tool in which different parties provide their input. Acuity enables us to ensure that asset owners at all levels perform their assessments in a traceable, auditable and transparent manner and that we maintain an overview of the status of corporate risks and their treatment at all times.

What do you like best about Acuity Risk Management?

The biggest advantage of Acuity risk management is that it is highly configurable which has allowed us to meet requirments from a number of stakeholders across our group setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Acuity Risk Management?

With the limited use we have had out of the tool to date the only dislike is with the reporting functionality, we will at some point create dashbaords with PowerBI as although Acuity holds the data, getting the reports and charts cannot be done from within the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Acuity Risk Management:

There is so much the tool can do, implement it one step at a time to ensure its fully embedded Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Acuity Risk Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

Acuity Risk Management has allowed us to move from doing assessments and risk analisis within spreadsheets. It will also eventually allow us to provide information to the stakeholder enabling them to make more risk based investments rather than compliance based.

The tool has also allowed us to get a group view of risks which has not previously been possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Acuity Risk Management?

Although information security management can be a very extensive and complex task, STREAM enables us to make our ISMS as efficient as possible, increase transparency and be maximally flexible.

With STREAM, interrelationships within the ISMS can be presented in a structured and simple way. The operation of the ISMS can be guaranteed efficiently even when taking countless international standards into account.

In addition, Acuity's pronounced customer orientation stands out, which supports requirements in a targeted manner or, if necessary, expands the system sustainably. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Acuity Risk Management?

The initial implementation is a very complex task that requires very good knowledge of the subject matter and the tool.

However, this has nothing directly to do with Acuity Risk Management or the STREAM tool.

For what initially appear to be simpler solutions do not, in my experience, offer the flexibility needed in a heterogeneous or more complex environment as they are further developed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Acuity Risk Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

By using Acuity Risk Management, we are able to realize maximum efficiency in maintaining our ISMS and provide up-to-date visibility at all times, even across multiple international scopes and applicable standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
