GREAT ASSESSMENT PLATFORM

Perimeter is an extremely easy-to-use and flexible assessment platform. The tool is agnostic to any one methodology. It can be customized to your company’s specific rule sets to measure vendor’s risk or leverage one of Perimeter’s templates.

I didn't know I needed it, now I have to have it

If you want a tool that comes pre-populated and you can start using day one, get this one. If you want a tool and is highly customizable and can quickly be modified to suit your needs. If you want a tool that has excellent support, use this one. I'm certain there are things that Perimeter doesn't do excellently, but I haven't found them yet.
