Segregated data keeps sensitive data private It's difficult to segregate data in Excel so users only see some not all data within worksheets. Risk Wizard segregates data so users only see their data. Sensitive data can be user restricted . Automatic workflow not emailed worksheets Emailing Excel sheets with ‘to do’ lists' is time consuming to follow up and delivers mixed results. Risk Wizard has automatic alerts, reminders and escalation notices with oversight reporting that makes activity tracking easy. Top data security not locked spreadsheets Shared spreadsheets are difficult to keep secure, particularly on laptops or home office PCs. Risk Wizard is reliably hosted on Amazon Web Services where data security is proven and paramount. Multiple risk registers to one risk system Departmental risk registers in Excel need to be consolidated for reporting which takes time. Our centralised system maintains data privacy between departments with consolidated reports quickly generated. Multiple user styles instead of one in Excel Spreadsheets are limited to one access style whether it is a risk manager or an infrequent user. Risk Wizard’s user experience is configurable so a risk manager can have a different touch point than staff with different day jobs. Upgrade from Excel to tailored reporting suite Excel risk reports are limited and error prone. Spreadsheet ‘expert’ is usually needed for reporting. Risk Wizard has a simple report design tool and suite of report templates. Customers can tailor formats for different audiences. Consistent risk criteria and risk terminology Different dept. risk registers means variable risk definitions and inconsistent risk scoring. Risk Wizard's single agreed source of definitions and scoring scheme allows for better organisational comparison. From static risk list to dynamic risk process Risk lists created in Excel are rarely re-visited leading to a static, poor risk process. Our dynamic features provide users with on-demand reports interactive registers, dashboards and automatic work-flow. Drill down dashboards not just Excel charts Interactive Excel experiences need many linked sheets which is time consuming and difficult. Risk Wizard’s configurable dashboards are rich and allow drill-down from ‘bird’s eye’ view to detailed records.

Pros and cons of using Excel spreadsheets for risk management. Excel is a commonly used tool for risk management due to its flexibility and ease of use. However, there are both pros and cons associated with using Excel for risk management: Pros of using Excel for risk management: 1. Familiarity: Many people are already familiar with Excel, making it an easy tool to adopt for risk management. 2. Flexibility: Excel is a highly customizable tool that can be adapted to meet a wide range of risk management needs. 3. Data analysis: Excel has robust data analysis capabilities, including charting, pivot tables, and filtering, making it easy to analyze risk data. 4. Cost-effective: Excel is an affordable solution for risk management and does not require expensive software or tools. 5. Versatility: Excel can be used for a variety of risk management tasks, including risk identification, assessment, and reporting. Cons of using Excel for risk management: 1. Limited collaboration: Excel does not support real-time collaboration, which can make it difficult for teams to work together on risk management tasks. 2. Error-prone: Excel is prone to human errors, such as incorrect data entry, which can impact the accuracy of risk management data. 3. Lack of audit trail: Excel does not have a built-in audit trail, making it difficult to track changes to risk management data. 4. Limited scalability: Excel is not designed to handle large volumes of data, and as a result, it may not be the best solution for organizations with complex risk management needs. 5. Security risks: Excel files can be easily copied, shared, and modified, which can create security risks for sensitive risk management data. Avoid the Excel cons with Risk Wizard Excel can be a useful tool for risk management, especially for smaller organizations or those with very simple risk management needs. However, once spreadsheets are being used regularly and shared amongst staff the pitfalls of Excel become prominent meaning you need to step up to a robust solution such as Risk Wizard.
