What is Diligent Audit
Diligent Audit is an audit management software product used to plan, execute, document, and report internal audits. It supports audit teams with workflows for risk-based audit planning, workpaper management, issue tracking, and audit reporting. The product is typically used by internal audit functions and governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) teams that need centralized audit documentation and visibility across audit engagements. It is positioned as part of Diligent’s broader governance and risk platform, which can matter for organizations standardizing multiple GRC processes under one vendor.
End-to-end audit workflow
The product covers core internal audit lifecycle needs, including audit planning, fieldwork/workpapers, findings, and reporting. This reduces reliance on spreadsheets and shared drives for audit documentation. Centralized engagement records can improve consistency across multiple audits and auditors.
Issue and remediation tracking
Diligent Audit includes mechanisms to capture findings, assign owners, and track remediation status over time. This supports follow-up audits and management reporting on open items. It also helps maintain an audit trail of changes and updates to issues.
Alignment with broader GRC suite
Diligent Audit is part of a wider set of governance and risk products from the same vendor. For buyers already using related Diligent modules, this can simplify vendor management and enable shared data or reporting across governance and risk processes. Suite alignment can be useful for organizations seeking standardization across audit and adjacent GRC activities.
Suite complexity for small teams
Organizations with lightweight audit needs may find the platform-oriented approach more complex than checklist- or workflow-first tools. Implementation and configuration can require more upfront design work to match an organization’s audit methodology. Smaller teams may not use enough of the feature set to justify the overhead.
Integrations vary by environment
Connecting audit workpapers and evidence to external systems (e.g., document repositories, ticketing, or ERP sources) often depends on available connectors, APIs, and internal IT support. Integration depth and effort can vary by customer environment and governance requirements. Buyers typically need to validate integration capabilities during evaluation.
Reporting customization may require setup
While audit reporting is a core capability, tailoring dashboards and reports to specific stakeholder formats can require configuration and ongoing maintenance. Some organizations may still export data for specialized analysis or board-ready formatting. Reporting needs should be mapped to the product’s native templates and configuration options during selection.
