Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Frequently asked questions about getting started with Sprinto, including setup time, framework changes, staff onboarding, integrations, and policy management.
This section answers common questions about setting up and using Sprinto for the first time. If you have a question not listed here, contact our Support Team.
1. How long does the initial Sprinto setup take?
The setup time depends on the size of your organisation, the number of integrations, and the complexity of your compliance requirements. Most customers complete the core configuration within a few hours, with additional time for policy approvals, training assignments, and vendor assessments.
2. Can I change my compliance frameworks after setup?
Yes. You can enable or disable compliance frameworks at any time from the Frameworks page in the Sprinto dashboard. Note that billing is based on enabled frameworks.
3. Do I need to add all staff during the initial setup?
No. You can add staff at any time using integrations, bulk upload, or manual entry. However, adding all relevant team members early helps ensure a smooth onboarding process and accurate compliance tracking.
4. Can I use my own policies instead of Sprinto templates?
Yes. You can upload your existing policy documents, use Sprinto templates, or create new policies using Sprinto’s built-in editor.
5. What if my organisation uses an external training provider?
You can integrate your external provider with Sprinto. Alternatively, you can use Sprinto’s built-in training capabilities to create and assign training campaigns.
6. Do I need a Mobile Device Management (MDM) tool?
Not necessarily. You can use Dr. Sprinto to monitor device health without an external MDM. If your organisation already uses an MDM tool, you can integrate it with Sprinto.
7. How do I track onboarding progress for new staff?
Sprinto provides an onboarding workflow that allows you to monitor completion of assigned policies, trainings, and device compliance. You can also send reminders directly from the dashboard.
8. Can I integrate Sprinto with my IAM or ticketing systems later?
Yes. Integrations can be added at any time, whether for IAM tools, infrastructure monitoring, code repositories, or ticketing systems.
9. Is vendor due diligence mandatory?
Vendor due diligence is only required for vendors classified as high risk based on your configured risk assessment criteria.
