Clarivate Analytics headquartered in Philadelphia offers Techstreet, web platform for searching and management of global standards for risk and compliance management.
RSA Archer is fantastic at cataloguing, personalizing assessments, raw reporting, and capacity to add custom fields. It is a little clunky around adding contextual information to notifications, peeking into data before attempting to load pages, quick navigation or determining linked (or sub-linked) relationships. These are all concerns that can either be worked around with an appropriate data scheme or with careful administration of the sub-routines.
Techstreet would be suitable for building companies, certification companies, testing laboratories, and manufacturers. With Techstreet, you can purchase current and previous versions of standards and manuals from different accreditation companies. This is quite helpful for businesses that need to stay up-to-date on industry standards and regulations.
Integration capabilities to multiple enterprise systems
Control standards and Procedures to address multiple regulatory/authoritative sources, standards and frameworks enabling test once satisfy many requiremnts
Rapid application development and User friendly tool with configuration capability to customize easily without user requiring programming or coding skills
Good tool to get the information communicated, approval workflow, and easy to add new findings/questionnaires. Seems to be compatible with different browsers and little downtime. Only request for improvement is to add an export feature with fewer clicks. Maybe batch export.
Our RSA Archer team is dedicated to finding solutions for our organization. They haven't mentioned any issues with receiving support with deployment or bug fixes, and generally the platform is very dependable. They are always very excited about delivering a version upgrade and presenting any new features that provide more dashboards or chart types.
It has been roughly 5 years since I have seen Securevue, so a lot can change, but to me it felt like several products were purchased and an attempt was made to piece them all together into a single solution (and I believe that may have been true). It also required agents on endpoints which did not fit the model I believed customers were looking for. MetricStream appeared to be difficult to install as it took their own engineers some time to get it installed in my lab environment. I did not think their web interface was as intuitive as RSA Archer. Customization to the platform was possible to some degree, but required a lot more work and technical skills than required by Archer. I did like the landing page for MetricStream which called out the important action items for the current user, but Archer v6.X now has this feature.
Before Techstreet, I had to go to multiple places to purchase the standards I needed. This was time-consuming and frustrating. But with Techstreet, I can find all the standards I need in one place, and their prices are really competitive.
I also appreciate that Techstreet is a full repository. This means that they have a huge selection of standards to choose from, including both current and previous versions. This is really helpful for me, because I often need to reference older versions of standards for reviewing test procedures or training purposes.
