Ecomply is from Aazar, the guy who I know for more than a year now. His knowledge in GDPR compliance is top notch.

Given he's the Founder of GDPR compliance, I wouldn't think twice to use another tool to my business compliant.

Pros:

One of the easiest GDPR Compliance tools to use

Cons:

Nothing I can think of

Thanks for hunting @jeroen_corthout It all started with a phone call from a fellow SaaS company co-founder on 25th July (Good 2 months after GDPR implementation). This is how the conversation went: X: Hey, Aazar how is it going? A: Good, good! How about you? Followed by few minutes of dissing the new Jurassic World Movie X: So, Aazar do you have a GDPR Guidebook that I can refer to? A basic 101? I am sort of struggling here with GDPR compliance. Not even sure if it applies to us in the US. A: Well it does apply to you, for sure! Some friendly banter followed where I made fun of my friend for not thinking about the GDPR till now. I got him all worried about it: mission accomplished! However, the more I researched, the more I realised that there is a need for a basic guide especially for people who are yet to start their GDPR efforts or who have just embarked on this “noble” journey filled with its own arduous hurdles. Experts estimate that 65-85% of the companies are still at the start of their GDPR compliance journey. This Guidebook is exactly for these companies. So if you have just started the journey, if you are currently on it and lost, or if you just need an overarching view of what needs to be done or if you simply love everything GDPR as much as we at ECOMPLY.io do: then this book is for you! The GDPR Guidebook for Starters - 2018 will give you a brief overview of GDPR, bust some GDPR myths, take you through some critical actionable steps that you need to take, provide you with a checklist (especially for software companies) and we will sign off by sharing some tips from industry experts. Grab a coffee, you are in for a GDPRide! Disclaimer: Please don’t take this as a legal advice. This is a best practice guidebook.
