Market Map

Strengths

  • Relatively easy-to-use
  • Comprehensive, has everything you might need and is PAYG so no upfront costs.
  • The payment and SoF piece are pretty good.
  • The workflow automation per practice area and ability to get your term of engagement signed and deposit collected in one flow is very strong

Weaknesses

  • The platform was not built for AML, evident by lack of proper Screening/Ongoing Monitoring module - there is no remediation capabilities - they just provide a pdf from ComplyAdvantage
  • The KYB module is disjointed and just a window shop into Creditsafe or whoever they are using for KYB - it is very frustrating to use and there is no case file for businesses, you can only have case files for contacts.
  • No Risk Assessment, risk scores or deep AML functionalities.
  • Not ideal for complex cases such as trusts or international companies
  • Glassdoor reviews are extremely concerning, unusually high staff turnover

Pricing

  • PAYG

Aventine Comment

A lot of law firms love this tool because it costs very little, has tons of features and they can customise the onboarding flow for different practices, but it is very weak on AML, they have weird terms for everything, high staff turnover, and it is not fit for AML onboarding.
