Instead of NAVEX EthicsPoint
Stop renting NAVEX EthicsPoint. Own your whistleblowing system.
We build your version around how your organisation takes reports, investigates and reports to the board. We bring your EthicsPoint case history across, set up a reporting line that feeds it, and run it for you.
NAVEX lists EthicsPoint Essentials from US$1,980 a year, for US businesses with 250 staff or fewer. Larger and non-US programmes are quoted privately.

Read the invoice first
What the subscription is paying for
NAVEX publishes one EthicsPoint price, for small US businesses. Everyone else gets a quote. Before the renewal, check what the quote is really for.
The price follows your headcount
The published Essentials price covers organisations with 250 employees or fewer. Above that, the programme is quoted privately.
The published price is for the US
Essentials is built for US-based businesses with US-based support. A New Zealand or Australian group is priced privately.
The reporting line is the visible part
Web and phone reporting around the clock, with anonymous options. Behind the line, each case is a record with dates, an owner and an outcome.
Standard dashboards, standard workflows
Essentials lists simple case management, preconfigured workflows and standard dashboards. The question your audit committee asks next is not always on one of them.
Local rules are still your job
The New Zealand 20 working day timeline and the Australian whistleblower policy rule apply to you whatever the platform. The records have to show you met them.
Leaving means pulling reports out
NAVEX does not publish an export format. Case history comes out as the reports your account is set up to run.
The system you own
Start from what a case officer does every week
Deadlines
Never miss the date that protects the discloser
Every report carries its acknowledgement date, worked out in New Zealand working days with your holidays taken out.
- check Reports not acknowledged, with the days left on each
- check Disclosers not updated in 30 days, and what they were last told
- check Australian cases where the discloser went to ASIC or APRA, with the 90-day point shown
- check Cases past your own target, oldest first
Confidentiality
Know exactly who has been told
The database never stores a discloser's name. Every time someone is told who they are, the basis is recorded, and anything without a lawful basis is flagged.
- check An identity register by case: who was told, by whom, and why
- check Consent, regulator, police or lawyer recorded against each one
- check Board reports with numbers and categories only, never case detail
- check Case records that cannot be deleted, with every change logged
Investigation
Run the case from report to outcome
Each case moves from received to closed through its own steps, and it cannot close with work still open.
- check Protection assessed and the reasoning written down
- check Investigation actions with owners and due dates
- check Closing blocked while actions are open or protection is unassessed
- check Outcome messages drafted for the discloser, ready to review
After the case
Check the discloser is not paying for speaking up
Closing a case books two retaliation checks, and any concern stays on the record.
- check Checks due and overdue across every closed case
- check Concerns and detriment kept on the file with notes
- check Training dates for every eligible recipient and case officer
- check Policy review dates for each company in the group

Switching
How to switch from NAVEX EthicsPoint
In practice, the move involves exporting your case list, mapping your fields, testing the import and checking the records before you switch over.
- 1
Prepare the case report
NAVEX does not publish an export format, so check with NAVEX EthicsPoint and export what your account allows, usually CSV or Excel. The import uses a case list saved as CSV from an EthicsPoint report. Decide which history you need in the new records. Reporter names are not imported, and message threads and attachments stay in EthicsPoint, read-only, until your retention period ends.
- 2
Run a test import
Load the case list into the new system with a test run first. If the report's column headings differ from the fields in the new records, map the columns so each value goes to the right place. Review the test results before importing the records for ongoing use. If you are having Enterprise DNA run the system, they handle this import and mapping with you.
- 3
Check the import results
Review the import's flags and compare the record counts with the EthicsPoint report. Check any flagged records against the source report and resolve discrepancies before relying on the new records. Confirm that the fields you need are present. Keep the source report available while you do these checks, and remember that reporter names, message threads and attachments are not part of the imported records.
- 4
Run both systems briefly
Keep the new records and EthicsPoint available together for a short period while your team checks its case handling. Keep using the current reporting line until the replacement secure form, mailbox or phone line is live. Then confirm that new reports are reaching the new records and that your team can manage them there. Message threads and attachments remain read-only in EthicsPoint until your retention period ends.
- 5
Switch off EthicsPoint
Once you have checked the imported records and flags, and the replacement reporting route is live, stop using EthicsPoint for new cases. Keep its message threads and attachments available read-only for as long as your retention period requires. Make sure your team knows where to find the new case records and how incoming reports reach them before you close off the old process.
Where the real effort goes
The work is usually in mapping your own fields and rules, checking the imported records, and deciding how much history to bring across. The case list comes across, but message threads and attachments stay in EthicsPoint until your retention period ends. If Enterprise DNA installs and runs the system for you, Enterprise DNA handles the migration, column mapping, test import and count checks.

Questions
Instead of NAVEX EthicsPoint, answered
Who receives the reports if we leave EthicsPoint? expand_more
Your people, the same as now: the case officers and eligible recipients named in your policy. The free version does not take reports from the public, so in your version we set up a secure form, mailbox or phone line that files each report straight into your records. Until that is live, your current line keeps running.
Can anonymous reporters still talk to us? expand_more
Yes. Each report carries a contact route the discloser chose, such as a mailbox thread or a hotline reference, and every message to and from them is logged against the case. The records never hold their name.
Is the case data safe? expand_more
It sits in a database you own, under your own access rules, not on a shared vendor platform. Records cannot be deleted, every change is logged, and nothing is sent anywhere without someone on your team approving it.
How does our EthicsPoint history come across? expand_more
We run your case report, map the columns, do a test import and check the counts with you before anything is switched off. Reporter names never come across. Message threads and attachments stay in EthicsPoint, read-only, until your retention period ends.
What does it cost compared with EthicsPoint? expand_more
The free version has no licence fee. Our version is one setup fee, then a monthly retainer, sized to your programme. Bring your EthicsPoint quote to the call and we will compare them honestly.
Bring your EthicsPoint quote to Sam
Spend 30 minutes with Sam. Bring your EthicsPoint quote, your whistleblower policy and the report your audit committee receives. We will show what moves across, what we build and what it takes to run your version.
