Reporting and Analytics Enhancement Reflect Broad Governance, Risk and Compliance Usage

CLEVELAND -- Axentis, providers of the industry's most comprehensive and widely deployed governance, risk and compliance (GRC) management solution, today announced the latest enhancements to Axentis Enterprise (Ae), the industry's only pure software-as-a-service (SaaS) based solution. The January product release introduces additional powerful reporting and analytic capabilities that allow everyday users to more rapidly and efficiently analyze their organization's key GRC-related data. In addition to the Axentis Enterprise platform, these enhancements are available to customers of the Axentis solution suites, including Sarbanes-Oxley and Privacy Management.

"Today our customers are turning to Axentis to manage a broad and growing number of GRC applications, be it SOX, privacy, regulatory or ethics-related issues," said Roger Bottum, vice president of marketing at Axentis. "In order to ensure success, it is critical that these companies have the ability to easily manage and analyze their GRC data at any given point in time to ensure that their compliance performance is in line with the demands of the organization."

New wizard-driven capabilities enable customers to more easily select, filter, analyze and publish data, and additional configurable graphical dashboards provide intuitive displays for executives and management, with no assistance required from their IT department. In doing so, Axentis Enterprise makes it easier to identify potential issues and faster for customers to meet the needs of a specific GRC initiative. The most recent release also includes a series of other "ease-of-use" enhancements requested by the Axentis customers.

Axentis is the only GRC company leveraging a pure SaaS model to deliver consistent workflow, reporting, security, and content and learning management.
