Diligent is built for listed and global enterprises with a dedicated governance department and a full board portal. EntityFlo is built for the internal mid-market team a step below that: the people who manage their own entities and need to do the work, not just administer it.
Diligent is implementation-led, typically weeks to months with onboarding support. EntityFlo is self-serve: your entities are live, your deadlines tracked and your gaps visible in hours.
EntityFlo treats trusts as first-class, AU-native entities, calculates UBO straight from the share register through trust and holding-company layers, and lodges with ASIC directly as an ASIC Agent: the structures and filings mid-market Australian groups actually run day to day.
When you outgrow EntityFlo, Diligent is the right tool. Until then, you're carrying enterprise weight you don't need to run a tight, mid-market group.
