Audits take too long. Evidence lives in spreadsheets and shared drives. Your team spends more time chasing files than fixing gaps. ZenGRC gives compliance teams a single place to map controls, collect evidence, and stay audit-ready. Map a control once and it satisfies multiple frameworks automatically. Connect to 117 pre-built integrations and stop chasing evidence manually. Get implementation in weeks, not months. ZenGRC is built for security and compliance teams managing 3 or more frameworks: SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, HITRUST, NIST, PCI DSS, CMMC, and more. It costs a fraction of enterprise GRC tools, and it works without a dedicated GRC consultant to run it. Book a free demo to see it in action. Wondering if ZenGRC is right for your organization?

Verified reviewer Computer Software 1001-5000 employees Used daily for less than 6 months Review source Reviewed May 2018 Logical and minimal approach to GRC saves time! 5 One of the biggest benefits that has made a huge impact is the time savings we've achieved in our IT Security group by using ZenGRC. Our old email/spreadsheet process would be a multi-week process, cause confusion every audit and often get us lost in the weeds of details when we needed to be focusing on the auditors. The first audit we ran through ZenGRC saved us literally a full week of time that would have been dedicated to reviewing evidence submission via email and spreadsheets. Having ZenGRC in place allowed us to put multiple review points in place BEFORE the evidence came to our group for review practically eliminating the requirement of follow-up request corrections. Ratings Breakdown 5 Ease of use 5 Value for money 5 Customer support 4 Functionality Pros: ZenGRC brings all the tools you need to run a successful GRC program to the table in a clear, concise and minimalist package that's nimble and efficient. Our company had been utilizing the old method of email/spreadsheets and was getting lost in the weeds even on the smallest of audits and struggling to keep up each year to stay ahead. Our evaluations with other tools fell flat, didn't meet our requirements or introduced complexity. Our evaluation of ZenGRC started with skepticism, but quickly turned positive once we realized how logically organized the system was on the back-end. During our testing period, we were able to quickly create a Sarbanes-Oxley program, using both their template import and the GUI, in a matter of days. Since that time only a few short weeks ago we have now almost completed a full internal audit of our SOX program, complete with evidence collection and control evaluations. Our rough estimate has us gaining back a full week of time from previous audits last year and year prior using the old email/spreadsheet method. We are now rolling out an ISO27001, SOC2 and internal security control framework on the heels of the SOX success. Cons: As with any SaaS from a small company that is new to market (less than 5 years), there are aspects of the tool that require some creative thinking and clever workarounds. This is not necessarily a dislike in my opinion, however less technical individuals may find this aspect difficult or troublesome. ZenGRC staff do redeem themselves on this front as they're quick to respond to feature requests and have already implemented several suggestions our team has submitted. Since starting to use the product, they have continually updated the product with new features, fixes and updates to existing functionality. Read More TA Tim A. Verified reviewer Pharmaceuticals 11-50 employees Used daily for more than 2 years Review source Reviewed July 2025 Makes It’s easier to track risk and less chaotic. 5 ZenGRC has allowed us to remain proactive not reactive. We’re more consistently tracking risks and it’s now simpler to report on compliance status to leadership. Ratings Breakdown 5 Ease of use 4 Functionality Pros: I love that I can map risks, controls, and policies all in one dashboard. It’s good to see how other compliance frameworks overlap, and where we may also have exposure. Cons: It could need better integrations with some of our other tools. Importing data, if not cleanly formatted, can be clunky.

Verified reviewer Telecommunications 1001-5000 employees Used daily for more than 2 years Review source Reviewed June 2020 Practical and straightforward approach to GRC Management 4 PCI Assessments became more efficient with Objects, Controls, Requests, and Evidence migrated from spreadsheets and disparate file repositories to one system with relational mapping. Mapping Risks to our Vendors and Vulnerability management programs provides a holistic view of our security posture. Ratings Breakdown 5 Ease of use 4 Value for money 5 Customer support 4 Functionality Pros: The ease of use and administration is well balanced with the functionality needed in a GRC tool. ZenGRC gets the job done without being overly complicated. Cons: To meet our Privacy and Data Governance requirements, we initially deployed on-premises. However, soon after that, we found that software upgrades required significant IT involvement. Also, the technical specifications to continue to host on-premises did not align with our internal standards. We had to re-assessing our risk in storing sensitive information off-site. After performing more stringent due diligence of ZenGRC as a vendor, we migrated to ZenGRC cloud-hosted. Our preference would have been to remain on-premises with better upgrade automation that ZenGRC Administrators could perform within the user interface. Reasons for choosing ZenGRC Other Vendors required significantly more administrative overhead. Although the competitors' had a mature and feature-rich GRC platform, they were overly complicated for our use cases. Read More SB Steven B. Verified reviewer Insurance 5001-10000 employees Used daily for less than 2 years Review source Reviewed November 2019 Powerful, extensible, and easy to use software. Excellent support and product roadmap. 5 We're facilitating internal audits with ZenGRC, and the software does a great job of it. Ratings Breakdown 5 Ease of use 5 Value for money 5 Customer support 5 Functionality Pros: The ZenGRC solution streamlines conducting internal audits. Auditors can easily set up control frameworks (tons of templates are provided, which is very helpful), evidence requests, assign them to auditees, and review the evidence submitted. Auditees can easily provide feedback, ask questions, and submit evidence for review. The workflows ZenGRC supports are both incredibly accessible and very powerful. ZenGRC actively listens to customers and has actually incorporated a number of suggestions I (and other customers) have made. I'm excited to see what they'll develop in the future. Cons: The ZenGRC solution is fantastic, and all the complaints I had 1.5 years ago have been resolved, and my expectations exceeded. I wish the vendor/third party management module was receiving more attention, sooner, but the roadmap for its development has been conveyed to me, and I understand the timing. I wish there was a licensing model which was not tied to user counts, which would enable us to do even more with the product. Reasons for choosing ZenGRC The competitor is very powerful, but far, far, far, harder to use, with tons more overhead. ZenGRC hits the right balance of being easy to use but very powerful and extensible. Read More Travis R. Verified reviewer Computer Software 11-50 employees Used weekly for less than 2 years Review source Reviewed November 2017 ZenGRC Delivers Compliance and Automation 5 The immediate benefits are streamlining of processes and simplification of evidence collection. What used to be a multi-step JIRA project with a manual review, then publishing to a separate project where our auditors could view the evidence, is now a simple workflow. This is a huge timesaver and makes the audit process as painless as possible. Ratings Breakdown 5 Ease of use 5 Value for money 5 Customer support 4 Functionality Pros: Simple, easy to use, despite managing complex workflows and multiple audits across ,multiple teams. Easy to import specific controls and modify existing control sets to meet our needs as necessary. Audit readiness dashboard is critical as you prepare for new compliance initiatives or are questioned on "how difficult" it would be to be to become compliant with a specific regulation or framework to close a deal. Cons: The JIRA integration is improving in significant ways, however the complexity and manner with which we implemented JIRA makes an effective integration difficult and as a result the immediate integration is not as useful as we would like to see. That being said, the two-way sync has made a dramatic improvements, and for most customers, the existing integration is likely more than sufficient. Read More DA Dave A. Computer Software 201-500 employees Used daily for more than 2 years Review source Reviewed September 2017 ZenGRC is a major part of our successful compliance programs 5 Because it's so well organized we've managed to keep the required staff to manage compliance at a minimum. Ratings Breakdown 5 Ease of use 5 Value for money 5 Customer support 5 Functionality Pros: I have been using ZenGRC for over two years now and it has been an essential tool helping us get and stay organized when we embarked on gaining a SOC 2 attestation. We have since been through two SOC 2 audits and are using ZenGRC to help us assess and remediate our gaps against ISO 27001. Cons: There's still a some things you have to edit by exporting to CSV, editing in your favorite spreadsheet app, then re-importing, so it would be nice if some of that functionality was built into the UI. That being said, that workflow is actually ideal for some tasks. Our last audit firm wasn't able to use the app directly for requesting and managing audit evidence so there was a bit of duplication of effort. The ZenGRC team is making some changes to make that better though. Read More VR Verified Reviewer Telecommunications 5001-10000 employees Used daily for less than 6 months Review source Reviewed October 2021 Simple GRC Tool 4 Ratings Breakdown 3 Ease of use 4 Value for money 4 Customer support 4 Functionality Pros: ZenGRC is an incredibly flexible and simple GRC tool. It has capabilities to modify it to support the companies needs. Their strong USP is their capability to map findings, reviews, etc. with predefined security frameworks. The tool is simple and easy to use and great for a company in the early stages of its GRC journey. Cons: The tool lacks a lot of features available in standards enterprise GRC systems. There is always going to be a considerable amount of development effort by the implementing team since many features are not pre-built. The UI is too cluttered and a lot of advanced vendor module functionalities are not available. Read More VR Verified Reviewer Events Services 51-200 employees Used monthly for more than 2 years Review source Reviewed July 2018 Great Compliance / Audit Tool 4 Automating our audit and compliance issues into one platform that is easily accessible when needed to pull these files. Ratings Breakdown 4 Ease of use 4 Value for money 3 Customer support 4 Functionality Pros: This tool is very user friendly and navigation is around. It gives us one single platform to keep our audits managed efficiently and easily accessed if needed. We now have a tracking system for our compliance issues to resolve them swiftly and avoid fines and penalties to stay compliant. This tool has been a great organizational tool with many features to save time with tedious audits. Cons: There could be more reporting features available. There seems to be a lot of editing involved to download and/or export documents. If this was a built in feature with this software that would be helpful. Read More JG Justin G. Verified reviewer Gambling & Casinos 10000+ employees Used weekly for less than 12 months Review source Reviewed June 2020 Great for our needs 5 Since our compliance team is small ZenGRC has helped us to be able to management the requirements better and be more prepared for audits. In addition when people leave and new people come on to the account team, the new person is able to pick up where the last person left off. The software helps the entire account team manage the requirements more efficiently. Ratings Breakdown 4 Ease of use 5 Value for money 5 Customer support 4 Functionality Pros: ZenGRC is great for our team since we have one contract with a lot of requirements. The software gave us the ability to customize without the added costs with other off-the-shelter software. Cons: Although this is a minor concern, I wish the software would allow for renaming the main attributes. We use different terminology from the software and is confusing for some of the users. Reasons for choosing ZenGRC Mainly the cost of the software.
