Ideagen Policy Logic vs. SAP Process Control

Ideagen CompliSpace is great for keeping track of regular updates and reports with set repeating tasks for each user and team to keep up with. Where it falls short is the lack of feedback from the user to admin where external programs or solutions need to be used to keep the scope of tasks updated or changed.

SAP Process Control is well suited for managing the end to end lifecycle of controls across different regulations. When managing a risk and controls framework it is better suited for public companies that have regulation requirements. The tool does not offer good capabilities for managing robust IT regulations. It would be good if there's improvement to the tool so it can be used to manage IT assets.

I think there are still some rooms for improvement and updates to it but there are not any obvious or painful shortcomings that cause a disruption to regular workflow from what I've used it for.

The connectivity with other SAP products out of the SAP GRC suite, like Access Control and so on, was key for the decision. Also we had an already mature SAP System landscape as well as having internal processes that were similar to the SAP Process Control standard processes helped us with the decision to implement SAP Process Control.
