Glasscubes vs Inflo

Inflo alternatives for PBC lists: how Glasscubes compares

Glasscubes runs the PBC request list for your audit clients: each item tracked, overdue items chased automatically, and a price published from £96 a month. Inflo is a full audit platform. Here is where Glasscubes is the simpler fit — and where Inflo is the better choice.

Where Glasscubes is stronger

Inflo is a digital audit platform: working papers, audit data analytics, quality management and a Digital Collaboration module for PBC requests. If your problem is getting the PBC list back complete and on time, the question is whether you need a whole audit platform to do it.

01

A price you can read

Published from £96 a month plus £14.40 per user on annual billing, so a six-person audit team pays £182.40 a month, excluding VAT. Inflo says you only pay for what you use, but publishes no prices: you book a demo.

02

Clients click a link

Clients answer each item from a secure link, with no account or password. Inflo's security page says access to its platform is by username and password, with two-factor authentication available.

03

Data in the UK

Data is stored in AWS data centres in the UK. Inflo's security page lists its EMEA instance on Azure, with the primary data centre in North Europe (Ireland) and the backup in West Europe (Netherlands). Both of us hold ISO 27001; Glasscubes is also Cyber Essentials certified.

04

Reuse last year's list

Save a PBC list as a request template and send it again next year, or schedule it as a recurring request. Automatic reminders are on every plan and stop once the client has finished.

Straight about the limits

Where Inflo is the better buy

Three things worth knowing before you switch, including the cases where Inflo is the better buy.

  • Inflo covers the whole audit

    Inflo also offers working papers, audit data analytics that it says analyse 100% of transactions, and a quality management system. Glasscubes is for collecting PBC information from clients and tracking what is outstanding.

  • Requests and working papers in one system

    If you want requests, working papers and review in one platform, Inflo is built for that. Glasscubes is for the request side: collecting information from clients.

  • Inflo is built by audit specialists

    Inflo says its risk-based methodology was built by audit professionals, and that it suits firms from small practices to global enterprises. Audit is one service line of several for us, so a firm whose work is mostly audit should weigh that depth honestly.

Worth a look if…

  • You need the PBC list back complete and on time

    Track every item, chase automatically and see what is outstanding across all your clients, without changing how you do the audit.

  • You want to see the price first

    Published pricing, and a demo built on your own request list.

  • You want working papers and analytics in the platform

    Choose Inflo. Requests are one part of a wider audit platform, and a wider platform is what you are after.
