Transparency alternatives to SARS GRID
Other Higher education CRM vendors we measure, sorted by how much we found at them and not at SARS GRID. This is a comparison of disclosure, not of features or fitness.
12 shown of 28 that differ from SARS GRID on at least one criterion we measured for both. Public transparency score, not a product or security rating.
SARS GRID has 12 gaps in what we could measure: Data processing agreement, Subprocessor list, Data location stated, Status page with history, Public pricing, Certifications named, Uptime SLA with a figure, HTTPS enforced with HSTS, No third-party tracking before consent, security.txt (RFC 9116), Notice before subprocessors change, Named privacy contact. The column “Found there, not found at SARS GRID” is the one that closes them.

Only criteria we could measure for both are counted. Where we could measure one and not the other, the row is silent: that would be a statement about our measurement, not about either vendor. Every single result with its source is on the two profiles.
