CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, company size fit, deployment model, here is our conclusion:
Compliance teams and legal departments running fast accessibility audits on public-facing web properties should start with AccessAudit Free Scan because it requires zero signup and returns a WCAG 2.1 score in seconds, letting you baseline hundreds of URLs without vendor lock-in. The no-friction entry point means you'll actually run scans instead of getting stuck in procurement; the tradeoff is you're limited to URL-level scanning without the deeper remediation tracking or continuous monitoring a paid platform provides. Skip this if your org needs detailed remediation workflows, role-based reporting, or integration with your dev pipeline.
Mid-market and enterprise security teams managing complex software supply chains should adopt Manifest Platform if SBOM governance and third-party risk visibility are your compliance bottlenecks. The platform maps to NIST CSF 2.0's GV.SC and ID.AM functions through automated SBOM enrichment and component integrity verification, giving you the provenance tracking that manual spreadsheet approaches simply cannot scale. Skip this if your organization hasn't yet standardized on SBOM generation across development teams; Manifest works best when you already have SBOMs to manage rather than starting from zero.
