Sometimes The Grass Is Actually Greener
Choosing the right compliance partner can make all the difference
In today’s complex regulatory landscape, maintaining compliance is not just a legal obligation but a crucial component of business integrity and success. Choosing the right regulatory technology (regtech) partner for your employee compliance needs can be daunting, filled with questions about the necessary solutions, the reliability of the partner’s technology, and the cost and time of implementation. These concerns are critical since failures on the partner side can affect your business operations and global regulatory compliance.
Employee regulatory compliance ensures your workforce adheres to laws, regulations, and internal policies governing their conduct. This is essential to avoid legal penalties, financial losses, and reputational damage. When selecting a regtech partner, businesses often grapple with the effectiveness, reliability, and global applicability of the solutions offered.

Star’s Partner Ecosystem
Partnering with industry technology leaders in other arenas is uncommon in regulatory compliance. However, Star believes that to provide the best products and services, aligning with providers with proven track records in their fields is essential. A unique feature of Star is its powerful Partner Ecosystem, which provides access to cutting-edge, best-in-class, first-to-market technology that enhances its platform.

Comparing StarCompliance with Competitors
Star distinguishes itself from competitors through its unique features and customer-centric approach. While many regtech companies offer basic compliance tools, Star provides a holistic and integrated suite of solutions that address every facet of employee regulatory compliance. Common issues with competitors, such as unreliable systems, limited functionality, and poor customer support, are effectively mitigated by Star’s offerings.
Competitor Issues
The Star Advantage
System-Wide Outages
Star mitigates this issue by incorporating multiple redundancies into its platform, ensuring that clients have uninterrupted 24/7 access. These redundancies include backup servers, failover mechanisms, and continuous monitoring systems that detect and address potential problems before they impact users. By doing so, Star allows clients to rely on the platform for their critical operations without concerns about downtime or access issues.
Limited Review Fields
Star’s platform offers the capability to include unlimited review fields and options, allowing clients to customize their review processes extensively. This flexibility means that users can tailor review forms to meet their specific needs, incorporating various criteria and data points relevant to their unique requirements. This configurability enhances the accuracy and relevance of employee compliance, enabling clients to gain deeper insights and make more informed decisions.
Weak Analytics Dashboards
Star’s ability to natively distill and synthesize data for internal and external stakeholders cements its leadership position in the space. This data model is a differentiator for the industry. In addition, Star’s partnership with Snowflake brings first-to-market analytics and intelligence throughout the platform, setting a new standard for data-driven decision-making. This collaboration leverages Snowflake’s powerful data warehousing capabilities to deliver real-time analytics, enabling users to access and analyze vast amounts of data quickly and efficiently.
Insufficient Regulatory Regime Support
Star supports all the major regional regimes including SMCR in the United Kingdom, IAC in Singapore, IAF in Ireland, as well as BEAR and FAR in Australia. Star tailors its compliance software solutions for multiple industries, as well as partners with key regulatory bodies around the world including SEC, FCA, ESMA, ASIC and MKMA.
Lack of System Flexibility
Star’s future-ready platform offers intuitive and flexible solutions for managing employee compliance. Its configurable features automate compliance processes and provide easy access to vital data, enabling informed decision-making and proactive conflict detection.
