Optro Reviews, Ratings & Features 2026 | Gartner Peer Insights

Gartner defines governance, risk and compliance (GRC) tools as tools designed to support a holistic enterprise risk management (ERM) process, encompassing risk identification, assessment, mitigation, monitoring and reporting. These tools enable ERM teams to create a unified view of top enterprise risks, facilitating coordination across first- and second-line teams (e.g., corporate compliance) and partnering with internal audit on aligned assurance.
GRC tools empower leaders to automate, manage and report on enterprise-level risks comprehensively. These tools facilitate the risk assessment process, enable workflow automation and streamline information exchange among leaders and first-line risk owners, enhancing the identification, assessment and communication of top enterprise risks. GRC solutions also support decision making through data visualization, reports and dashboards, offering insights for executives and the board, and integrating with other risk management technologies to provide a comprehensive risk view. Increasingly, GRC tools incorporate AI capabilities for advanced automation, including risk score validation, recommended controls and risk quantification.

AuditBoard GRC has made managing our compliance and risk program so much easier. I really like that it gives me a clear view of our regulatory risk all in one place, and makes documenting control testing and tracking issues simple and efficient. It’s also automated several manual tasks, saving our team valuable time and reducing the chance for errors. Overall, it’s been a great tool for streamlining our GRC processes.

Vendor is trying but still needs work.  The support is lacking and changes are constantly made that breaks workflows and features without knowledge.

Director of IT

- ITRM has helped us go from well-organized spreadsheets to an application where the risk, controls, and assessments can be connected and then integrated to the IT applications that they govern. 
- We no longer have separate work books for each application and system this has saved us days of time in workshops and working sessions. Along with the risk calculations being available from previous risk assessments is easier to inform the current conversation about evaluating a new risk.
- collaboration across IT and the business is now easier and the stakeholders are identified so this makes meeting invites and delegation clearer.
