Excel: a universal tool, but not really suited to your compliance challenges

Used by default in many organizations, Excel is a long-standing reflex for managing compliance (ISO 27001, HDS, DORA, NIS2, etc.). But this choice comes at a cost:

  • ❌ Dispersed and decentralized data
  • ❌ High risk of manual errors
  • ❌ Lack of traceability and history
  • ❌ No task automation
  • ❌ Difficulties in producing clear reports for decision-makers

In a nutshell: Excel was not designed for compliance management.
