Are you talking about VigilEnt Policy Centre? I looked at this when my company was looking at developing our security policies (it comes with an electronic copy of Charles Cresson Wood's "Information Security Policies Made Easy"). It is both a document management system and a user testing system. My organisation already had a controlled documentation system and I couldn't justify the cost of duplicated functionality.
Users within business need controlled access to corporate documents, whether relating to information security, industrial safety, human relations policy or anything else. My personal impression is that VigilEnt Policy Centre is for companies that do not already have a controlled document system or that can afford a separate one for information security. All companies that I've dealt with in the UK and US already had a controlled documentation system for managing controlled access (read only, editor etc.) to their polices and added their security polices to their existing system. What does your company do with other corporate documentation? Do you need a separate system for security? The testing aspect of VigilEnt Policy Centre may be worth the cost to you business but I found it rather expensive. Ian.
