Performance of Archer Across Market Features
Archer Likes & Dislikes
Flexibility. Ability to configure ourselves. Customer service.
With Archer I have a comprehensive view of risk across the organization since data is pulled from multiple sources. This has actually enhanced the flow of communication and co-ordination between various teams which are involved in risk management activities.
I really like that Archer is the standard when it comes to GRC tools. It's been around a long time that most mature programs do leverage it to further their journey.
Some features are underdeveloped. User experience is a little outdated.
There are very few settings which allows me to create reports that reflect my needs. This often results in exporting the raw data and then working on it externally which is not the idea of having a centralized platform.
The growing pain for Archer has always been the user experience. It's good that it's flexible but users complain that it's clunky and hard to navigate.

Strong Choice for Risk Management
Archer is a flexible and highly configurable risk management platform that allows organizations to tailor solutions to their needs. We have optimized this by building several use cases for non-traditional purposes, taking advantage of Archer's strong workflow and notification capability and applications for areas typically outside of Archer's suite of products. In our experience, Archer's customer service team is responsive and knowledgeable. Archer offers a premium success program which enables relationship building with your representative. This has proven invaluable in helping us solution several pain points. Archer does have a few limitations. New functionalities, often available due to acquisitions of other companies, can be rolled out too quickly, leaving some features underdeveloped or incomplete. Also, its user interface can feel outdated though their team is actively working on improvements utilizing customer input. Modernization of the platform is on the horizon which we eagerly anticipate. Overall, Archer is a strong choice for risk management with some caution for new features and an evolving user experience. - VP, Product1B-10B USDBankingReview Source
Archer GRC: A Flexible Approach to Complex Processes
We're happy with Archer as our enterprise GRC tool. It's the leading tool in this space and has plenty of flexibility to accommodate the most complex processes. The area of improvement we would like to see more from Archer is the more flexibility in reporting and dashboards. Our team connects data from Archer to other reporting mature tools like PowerBI. - HSE ADVISOR AND LIFTINNG APPOINTED PERSO50M-1B USDTransportationReview Source
The Need for More User-friendly Report Customization in Archer
Archer is useful for GRC management and the issue of having all the data in one place is rather important. There are several other aspects of report customization that can greatly enhance their effectiveness for assurance professionals like me if they were made more user-friendly. - ASSISTANT MANAGER, OPERATIONS50M-1B USDTransportationReview Source
Archer's Integrated Approach to Risk Management: A Comprehensive Insight
Archer provides a strong basis for an integrated approach to risk management but the absence of readily accessible reporting tools is a significant limitation in terms of communicating risk information. If we have more flexible reporting then we will be able to share risk insights more effectively. - Consultant10B+ USDIT ServicesReview Source
Archer's eGRC Platform: Lingering in the Past or Still Relevant?
Archer has a somewhat dated user experience, I feel that users demand more of eGRC platforms in the modern era from the perspective of how it can be used, and how it looks and feels.
