For Bayard, we made exactly the right decision by selecting Athereon GRC for our initial certification. The cockpit is particularly user-friendly; you always have a complete overview of all ISO requirements and processes and know exactly where you are. The software itself always covers the latest regulatory requirements, so you are well prepared for audits. Help from the team was also always reliable, competent, and unbureaucratic. We particularly appreciated the personal support and the straightforward, solution-oriented approach for our company.

"By using Athereon GRC, we were able to link the requirements of the various standards (ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, BSI C5, ISO 27701) and thus process them in just one place.

The effort required to maintain the respective requirements of these standards and norms and the complexity that normally accompanies them have been significantly reduced through the use of Athereon GRC.

I would like to highlight two points in particular:

1) Open communication regarding customer requests and feature requests at all times. These are usually implemented very promptly.

2) The always fast and competent support from the support team.

Many thanks to the Athereon GRC team for the collaboration!

People that are planning something

Collaboration with Athereon GRC was very straightforward, both during project implementation and ongoing use. There was always a competent contact person. Any issues that arose were resolved promptly after reporting, and questions about specific Athereon GRC features were always answered quickly. Furthermore, ideas for new features or suggestions for improvements are received with great interest and then published in a future release.

We've come to value the unbureaucratic, customer-focused collaboration as our greatest advantage and strength, something we sometimes miss with other providers. We also particularly like the videos on Athereon GRC that have been published recently.

Athereon GRC can definitely be recommended for public sector administrations of our size.
