### "Great Software"

January 27, 2022

5.0

It is very useful for anyone with or working towards ISO certification. Very audit friendly - would recommend.

Pros

It is extremely straight forward to use. You can train managers quickly on it and use/adoption rate is very high.

Cons

It is a bit pricey. However it is more versatile and easier to use than most major software - worth the extra costs.

Reason for choosing Qualio

Greenlight also seemed like a great product but the implementation speed and ease of Qualio was out deciding factor.

### "Qualio is the Perfect eQMS - Simple and easy to use "

August 15, 2023

4.0

Experience overall has been great. Qualio has been super responsive to all questions and issues. They recognize where problems exist and where improvements can be made. They pay attention to the customer's requirements (needs and wants) and they implement them to improve the functionality and performance of the eQMS' features. Qualio is always working on new things to help facility the end user's IeQMS and remain compliant within the industry.

Pros

The ability to have all documents maintained electronically in one system. I managed a manual QMS for 13+ years...it was manageable, but Qualio made it so much easier! The change control element and the Training module was a huge bonus - especially when this was originally done manually all those years.

Cons

The cumbersome document editor seemed old and outdated and was not easy to use. However, Qualio has made many improvements to the document editor making it much easier to create and edit documents.

### "Qualio is a great flexible QMS tool for small companies"

August 16, 2023

3.0

Overall, my experience with Qualio is positive and I would recommend other small business owners to purchase this system. The system was fairly easy and quick to implement and covers the basics of what is needed to establish an ISO based QMS. The customer service is excellent and it appears that they are trying to improve both the quality of the product and the features.

Pros

Qualio has great customer service and and the onboarding team was incredibly helpful in setting up the system quickly. The system has great flexibility in setting up customized processes using their Events feature and I'm excited to implement their new analytics features. The process for change control is simple and intuitive.

Cons

As compared to other eQMS systems, there seems to be some basic functionality that is missing. For example, change control must be applied to one document at a time where most eQMS can revise multiple documents at a time. The system does unfortunately have bugs throughout all of their modules and the editing tool and tracking changes tool is quite tedious and burdensome. Lastly, their design control module is really a requirements management tool and does not actually assist with design control.

### "Most preferred and user friendly document management system"

July 27, 2025

5.0

Qualio is assisting me and my organization in maintaining all the company processes at one place. It has also helped me to make sure me and my colleagues are always up to speed with the trainings on new and revised processes. Moreover retrieving the current processes are also easy

Pros

I use qualio as our preferred document management system. The best part is its interface is simple and intuitive. Creation of sops, dops and policies are very easy. Moreover the way it keeps me abreast with my training needs is also something I appreciate the most.

Cons

At times creating a document is a bit of a lengthy process. If it had an option for direct uploading of the written document it would save time.

### "User-friendly platform to integrate teams"

May 27, 2025

5.0

Qualio offers a unified and user-friendly platform to integrate our teams, tools, and data. It streamlines critical quality processes, such as document control, training, non-conformances, CAPAs, audits, and supplier management, all within a single, collaborative system.

Pros

Very intuitive to use, The friendly interface does not require extensive training or uptime to get users on boarded and using the system

Cons

The document editor is not as robust as microsoft word. This makes custom documents harder to create

### "The solution to management of QMS activities and Events"

May 16, 2024

5.0

It has been an interesting learning experience and the solution to the tedious manual QMS. Work is simplified and distributed evenly. Is a fairly lean system.

Pros

Qualio has been improving every quarter to satisfy customer needs by incorporating suggestions for improvements made by customers and advancement of the feature available for use as per the current GMP regulations.

Cons

One has to adapt very fast with the changes to enjoy the benefits. So much good not to miss out on the advantages.

### "Quality Review"

April 29, 2024

4.0

Overall, the experience with Qualio is good so far.

Pros

The best thing about Qualio is that you can customise it according to you own operations. The second-best thing about Qualio is their support team.

Cons

Document management needs to be improved a bit. Resonance Health has faced a lot of issues when people with access to create drafts created drafts without prior permission and without any need of new document. This hinders the log control in Qualio.

### "Quality is in it's name and it delivers!"

April 12, 2024

5.0

I, and the company, have had a good experience with Qualio. Though there have been a few troubled spots we have always been reassured and received the improvements that have fixed issues. We are reassured that the Qualio team is working hard to give its clients the best quality management experience possible.

Pros

Qualio is a platform that we've seen grow over the years. They are a team that strives to deliver a product that meets the needs of its clients and is continually improving upon past versions to deliver a product and experience that is unobtrusive to workflow at a reasonable cost. Their service team ensures you have what you need, and diligently works to implement needed changes if a feature is not available. It's clean and navigable. I highly recommend it for smaller businesses or startups.

Cons

We have waited on occasion past a couple of feature releases for much-needed editor and supplier management changes. The review process and audit trail are good, but change control (requesting approval to create drafts, risk assessment features, and tracking changes between versions) are lacking. Sometimes it shows large chunks of text as removed and replaced when only a few changes were made. Sometimes it shows all it's changes in rich text code which is unreadable for most.

### "Qualio Review"

August 7, 2023

5.0

Yeah, it is good to use, good to show someone your documentation and completes the process flow with respect to the features and configurations.

Pros

It is the best document management system which consist of whatever things you required with respect to ISO standards and as well as the company standards. It can be configurable. Best interface, controlled documentation, easy to use and to show external parties.

Cons

There are no such thing that i dislike, but some sort of feature incorporation while releasing a patch or full release can be taken as feedback from current users so that the new feature or full release can contains the things which are mostly required by the end users.

Reason for choosing Qualio

I was not there while choosing the product so i can not give the pure info regarding the same.

### "Excellent solution for most quality management systems"

August 8, 2023

5.0

Pros

Almost endless configuration capabilities allowing the creation of documents and events that fit your QMS instead of rebuilding your QMS to fit the software.

Cons

Inability to hot-swap an approver when they are not available. Instead the document needs to be reverted to draft, the approver changed, and then the document rerouted.

### "An excellent software for newer startups focused on Quality. "

August 9, 2023

5.0

Overall, feel like value for dollars spent, an excellent system for first implementation. Qualio staff are reachable.

Pros

The e-QMS feature and pairing with Adobe makes this a eco-friendly and high quality QMS. Drafting, review, approval and change management are intuitive.

Cons

Inability to view what the exported PDF looks like. Makes it difficult when working with data table entries.

Reason for choosing Qualio

Document Tags and E-QMS features (Design control, DIOVV)

### "The perfect system for startups and young organizations"

January 17, 2019

5.0

Pros

I like the simplicity of the software, and the ease of configuration for the user. If a new document type is needed, it's literally just a few clicks away. I like the intuitive navigation and the ease of adoption by the end users.

Cons

At this time, the only place I can fault Qualio is in the data reporting capabilities. Running basics like how many open/closed NCRs or how many SOPs approved is fine, but without more capability built out, or an external API (like a BI report or crystal intelligence tool), I can't get to more data within records. I do know they are working on this however, and generally at the start up level, you're not yet in need of super detailed reporting within your QMS yet anyway. The basics they provide will more than get you off the ground!

### "Qualio Review"

January 27, 2022

5.0

We have a very high Qa workload and especially during inspections were reliant on a couple of people. One thing forgotten or not done on time can lead to critical or major reviews. We want to avoid that and also ensure the QA managers are using their time effectively and not chasing paper. We are still Completing implementation and will be able to measure the efficiency, time saved and capacity developed by end of the year!

Pros

I think the ease of implementation and support. Ease of use… “does what it says”. We still need more time with it but my employees seem excited about it!

Cons

I am not sure at the moment. There were some Minor hitches with implementation . But no feedback on this yet!

Reason for choosing Qualio

Ampleloguc was a bit convulated. More of a tracker than a true work on line software. We would not have been 100% paperfree! Implementation timelines were long with extremely high upfront costs!

We control almost every aspect of our manufacturing business in Qualio along with our MES. We love the system.

Pros

We easily pass cGMP complaince audits utilizing all features of Qualio. The ease of use and being able to quickly pull up any documents requested has impressed many auditors.

Cons

Initially the search feature was a bit clunky, but there has been improvements. No issues now.

Reason for choosing Qualio

Ease of use and an all in one system to handle all of Quality.

Pros

Getting used to this system was a challenge. But once I learned to navigate it became quite easy. I love that this program works as Quality should and is always improving.

### "Very efficient, user friendly tool for our QMS"

February 8, 2022

5.0

Fantastic, coming from older clunky more expensive QMS at other Pharma companies, Qualio was a breath of fresh air.

Pros

The workflows are very intuitive and with basic training a new user can navigate very easily.

Cons

There is huge potential within Qualio to add on things like calibration management or Internal audits management. So it would be great to see additional modules / use cases added. The ability to integrate with other systems is not very visible.

Reason for choosing Qualio

Cost and implementation time was way better than competitors.

August 8, 2023

5.0

Pros

Qualio is extremely easy to use, with a streamlined interface that ancitipates the user's needs. In doing this, it streamlines the time required to create, edit, and access documentation in a secure way, and does not require a large amount of training or time to get used to.

Cons

Small cosmetic and quality of life improvements are needed in specific areas, yet they are the exception to the rule in most cases and do not seriously impact the system's value.

### "Beware, Qualio is not a Turnkey Solution"

August 3, 2023

2.0

The drafted documents and form templates make starting easier, but they must be tailored to the company's needs, which requires a quality person. Plus, just having the documents does not create a quality system. Please don't be fooled by the pitch that Qualio is a turnkey solution. Be aware that Qualio will not let you out of your contracted commitment.

Cons

It is not easy to create QMS with the documents alone.

### "Great eQMS software"

August 10, 2022

5.0

This software is a quick and effective method of managing quality procedures. The system keeps track of everything. It is suitable for small businesses and is also scalable as they expand. 

Pros

This software has a relatively simple learning curve. The programme has a lot of flexibility and lets you format procedures and records anyway you choose. The software contains useful features, easy-to-use interface, and finding documents is not too difficult either. Tech support is also excellent.

Cons

It's challenging to create documents with Qualio. The formatting options could be improved. Some areas lack audit trails.
