TeamMate+ from Wolters Kluwer has long been known in the internal audit space, with a product line covering TeamMate+ Audit, Agile Audit, Analytics, Controls, and ESG. Even so, not every audit team in Indonesia sees it as the best fit for their needs.
This article summarises the six alternatives most often considered as a replacement for TeamMate+, along with each one's strengths and the situations it suits best.
Disclosure: Audithink is our own product and is listed first because this article is published on our site. Information about the other vendors is taken from each vendor's public documentation as of 29 September 2026. Please reconfirm with the vendor before making a procurement decision.
Why Do Companies Look for TeamMate+ Alternatives?
TeamMate+ is a mature product, but the following reasons often come up when audit teams consider switching:
- User- and module-based licensing model. Costs tend to rise as more users or modules are activated, and pricing is not published.
- Implementation through a vendor or global partner. Onboarding and auditee training often run across different time zones and languages.
- A fixed, built-in methodology. Organisations with a specific audit charter and approval flow sometimes have to adapt their process to the system, rather than the other way around.
- Data placement rules. Some state-owned enterprises, regional government companies, and government agencies are bound by rules on data storage location that need to be confirmed in advance.
What Are the Six TeamMate+ Alternatives?
| Alternative | Main strength | Best suited to |
|---|---|---|
| Audithink | Internal audit focus, workflow customisation, local team, lifetime licence option | Companies and public bodies in Indonesia |
| Optro (AuditBoard) | Broad GRC ecosystem: audit, risk, compliance, and controls in one platform | Global enterprises with complex risk structures |
| Resolver | Audit integrated with risk intelligence, less work through email and spreadsheets | Organisations unifying audit and risk |
| Workiva | Connected data; changes to source data flow through to related documents and reports | Teams producing many data-based reports |
| SAP Audit Management | Integrated with the SAP ecosystem | Companies already running SAP |
| Diligent | Data analytics, issue management, and AI-based capabilities | Teams moving toward continuous assurance |
1. Audithink
Audithink is internal audit management software developed in Indonesia. Its scope follows the auditor's own cycle: risk assessment, the annual audit plan, programmes and working papers, findings with recommendations, notices to auditees, follow-up monitoring, and automatic reports and dashboards.
Its strength lies in its fit with the Indonesian audit context: SPI structures at state-owned and regional-government enterprises, APIP at government agencies, OJK requirements, and ISO-based quality audits. Workflows can be adapted to the organisation's methodology, the implementation team is based in Indonesia, and both Annual License and Lifetime License options are available, giving it a different cost structure from TeamMate+'s per-user subscription model.
Its limitations are also worth noting: its scope focuses on internal audit, not as full a range of analytics and ESG features as TeamMate+. PT Timah Tbk recorded an audit process roughly three times faster and a drop of around 80 percent in paper use, as described in PT Timah case study. A detailed comparison is available at Audithink vs TeamMate+.
2. Optro, Formerly AuditBoard
Optro (AuditBoard was renamed in March 2026) brings internal audit, risk management, compliance, and internal controls together in one GRC ecosystem. The company states that the platform is used by more than half of the Fortune 500.
Compared with TeamMate+'s audit focus, Optro targets organisations that want to connect audit with broader risk and compliance functions in a single platform. A detailed comparison is available at Audithink vs Optro (AuditBoard).
3. Resolver Internal Audit Management
Resolver provides an internal audit management solution integrated with risk intelligence. The platform helps manage the audit universe, processes, risks, controls, testing, findings, and action plans in one central system.
One of its emphases is reducing reliance on communication by email and spreadsheet, through workflows, automatic reminders, and a collaboration portal for auditees.
4. Workiva Internal Audit Management
Workiva connects data, documents, working papers, testing, risks, controls, and audit reports in a single working environment. Its main advantage lies in connected data.
When source data changes, linked documents and reports update along with it, reducing the risk of using inconsistent figures across documents. This is valuable for teams with many cross-referencing reports, a need that also often shows up among teams that previously used TeamMate+ Analytics.
5. SAP Audit Management
SAP Audit Management helps manage the internal audit process from risk-based planning, preparation, and execution through reporting and follow-up.
Its greatest added value appears in companies already using SAP for operations, risk management, or internal controls, because the data and processes sit in the same ecosystem.
6. Diligent Audit Management
Diligent combines audit workflow, data analytics, internal controls, issue management, monitoring, and AI-based capabilities in one solution, and also connects to Diligent Corporation's board governance portal.
The platform is aimed at helping the internal audit function move from manual processes toward a more continuous, risk-based assurance approach. A detailed comparison is available at Audithink vs Diligent.
How Do You Choose the Right Alternative?
The following order of questions helps narrow the field before you contact vendors:
- Is the scope internal audit alone or the full GRC spectrum? If it is internal audit only, a focused platform is adopted faster.
- Are there data placement rules? If so, set aside cloud-only vendors first.
- Is the budget recurring or one-time? A per-user subscription model and a lifetime licence have different effects on long-term budget planning.
- Is the audit methodology already standardised? If it's already set out in your audit charter, prioritise a system that can follow your process, not the other way around.
- Who will train the auditees? The availability of a local team and the language of training determine how quickly the system is adopted.
- Which systems must it integrate with? An ERP, HRIS, or risk management system already in use affects the choice.
Once you've narrowed it down to two or three candidates, ask each one to demonstrate a full audit cycle using a real scenario from your organisation, with the help of 40-criteria RFP checklist.
FAQ About TeamMate+ Alternatives
What is the best TeamMate+ alternative for Indonesian companies?
It depends on your scope and budget. For organisations focused on internal audit with auditors and auditees in Indonesia, a local platform like Audithink is usually adopted faster. For multinational groups with broader GRC needs, Optro or Diligent may be a better fit.
How much does TeamMate+ cost?
Wolters Kluwer does not publish TeamMate+ pricing. Its licensing model is based on the number of users and the modules selected, and the exact figure is only known after the proposal process.
Are there alternatives that can be installed on your own servers?
Yes. Audithink can be deployed in the cloud or on the company's own servers. TeamMate+ also offers both cloud and on-premise options, so the main differentiator is usually not where the system is hosted, but the support language and cost structure.
Do I need to replace my system if I'm already using TeamMate+?
Not necessarily. A switch is usually considered when the subscription cost is out of proportion to the modules actually used, when data placement rules appear, or when local support becomes a requirement. Calculate your current total cost of ownership and module usage first.
How long does migrating from TeamMate+ to other software take?
It depends on the volume and format of the data to be moved, usually covering the audit universe, findings history, and the status of follow-ups still open. Ask for a written migration plan with a time estimate inside the quote.

Conclusion
No alternative is best in every situation. What decides it is the audit scope, data placement rules, budgeting pattern, and who will support your team during implementation.
If your scope is internal audit in Indonesia, schedule an Audithink demo and ask our team to run one complete audit cycle following the process that applies at your organisation.
