Database & Spreadsheet Comparison

Better features, easier to use, and lower cost

If you are currently using spreadsheets or databases to manage business critical activities like risk and compliance, then you’ll know that they have some big disadvantages. Not only are spreadsheets and databases hard to maintain and audit, they also lack visibility and accessibility to the key stakeholders in the organization.

Xactium’s web-based Solutions are as easy to use as the best consumer web-sites, while also providing a single, shared place for managing your critical business activities that is accessible, auditable and adaptable to users needs.

Even better, Xactium's solutions offer the security, scalability and reliability of traditional enterprise software, without the high license fees and implementation costs.
