UpGuard’s cybersecurity platform has proven to be an invaluable asset to our organization.

The Threat Insights tool is exceptionally powerful, providing us with real-time detection of misconfigurations and a clear framework for prioritizing remediation. This ensures we focus our resources on the most critical risks instantly.

Beyond its technical excellence, the product is highly intuitive and has been seamlessly incorporated into our daily workflow and security checks. Furthermore, the implementation and integration with our ServiceNow platform were flawless, ensuring real-time threat data is immediately fed into our primary management system.

What do you dislike about UpGuard Vendor Risk?

I wish UpGuard would provide either the plaintext password or the password hash when reporting a data breach. This would help us determine whether the password is still in use, allowing us to better prioritize which users need to be alerted to reset their passwords. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient Compliance Questionnaire Management Tool"
4/5
What do you like best about UpGuard Vendor Risk?

I like that UpGuard can pull notes and files I've previously uploaded which makes filling out future compliance questionnaires easier. It's nice that it reads those files to auto-fill parts of the form, speeding up the time it takes to do forms. Some of these forms have a lot of questions and would otherwise take a long time. The initial setup was also easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UpGuard Vendor Risk?

I guess sometimes a question doesn't apply, but it just may not have a 'does not apply' button. So you're gonna have to upload filler or it's like an empty file to get past it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable partner for vendor risk clarity"
5/5
What do you like best about UpGuard Vendor Risk?

UpGuard gives me a single place to see the real risk picture without having to chase vendors for information. The automated questionnaires, security ratings, and continuous monitoring make third party reviews smoother and a lot more consistent. It saves time, keeps everything organized, and brings clarity to conversations that used to be non-existent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UpGuard Vendor Risk?

Some of the reporting views feel a little rigid. What’s there works, but a bit more flexibility around customizing dashboards and exporting insights would make it even easier to translate findings for leadership. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Onboarding with Robust Framework Mapping"
4.5/5
What do you like best about UpGuard Vendor Risk?

I like how efficient it is to onboard new vendors using questionnaires based on security frameworks like NIST CSF. The ability to map vendors' security practices to these frameworks and come up with a final score is really helpful. UpGuard takes the manual process of security document exchanges and stores them in a single repository. Once the questionnaires are completed, they are automatically mapped to the NIST framework and a score is provided. There's no need for manual review and on-net storage of the documentation for the vendor, as everything is saved online with historical notes and documents under the vendor. The initial setup of UpGuard was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UpGuard Vendor Risk?

I believe the AI feature could be improved. In proofing the outcome of what AI reports, I've found small discrepancies in what the information the vendor has provided and what AI has mapped to the final vendor score. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
