### "Satisfied Libryo Client and user."

May 13, 2025

5.0

Very well-maintained and up to date system, user friendly and easy to navigate. The use of the platform for all our SABS standards is also a big plus for us.

Pros

The regular updates of the different acts and regulations reminders send via email. The availability of our account manager for any queries, and the prompt response thereof, always. I am an administrator for our system; the registration and activation of user is very helpful.

Cons

The de-activation of user not actively using the system, if it can be looked at to lengthen the time period for the de-activating of the user.

Hi John, Thank you so much for the amazing and thoughtful review! It really means a lot to hear that you find Libryo reliable, user-friendly, and valuable for managing your SABS standards and regulatory updates. Thank you for your note on user deactivation — it’s a super fair point, and we’ll definitely take that into consideration. We’re lucky to have users like you on board! — The Libryo Team

### "Timeous updates to legislation changes."

September 20, 2024

4.0

Good. The interface is user friendly and easy to navigate.

Pros

I am informed of changes to legislation as these changes are made official.

Cons

Personally, I have given up using the search function. Google has proven more effective in finding specific legislation when I need to need to refer back. For example what is the maximum shelving high that we are allowed to use in the warehouse or how many suspended solids are allowed in the municipal effluent before penalities apply.

September 19, 2024

5.0

My overall experience with Libryo has been positive. The platform effectively streamlines compliance management by providing clear, tailored regulatory insights that are easy to access.

Additionally, the platform's ability to provide tailored regulatory insights for specific industries helped streamline our compliance processes and ensure we remained informed about relevant changes.

Cons

One aspect I found less favorable about Libryo was that occasionally, the search functionality could be improved to provide more precise results.

I love that it works as a legal register, with the assessment tool that's very useful.

### "Tasks and folders"

February 22, 2024

5.0

Quite experienced, I use it daily and am also an administrator.

Pros

The structure of projects with task and the possibility to add documents to a task.

Cons

It is not possible to hide the folders we create ourselfs. This means there are currently a lot of folders visible in our streams. Removing the old ones is not an option due to the audit trail.

Reason for choosing Libryo

As far as I know, we use Libryo from the start. There never was an alternative product we considered to use.

### "Your legal register at the end of your fingertips."

February 27, 2020

5.0

Updates on new legislation is delivered straight to your inbox so you stay in the loop. Audits are a breeze as you have proof that you have an up to date legal register and all documentation can be uploaded for audits. I can highly recommend Libryo.

Pros

The program is very user friendly and makes life a lot simpler with regard to legal compliance. Should you ever get stuck or need some explanation of the legal jargon, the program has an online chat feature with success agents to assist you. The Search feature is fantastic as you can drill down in your searches, search for applicable regulations on Environmental or Occupational Health and Safety, or both. Our company is currently in the process of obtaining ISO 14001 and the software has made my life a lot easier in obtaining information. It is also very exiting that the Libryo team is constantly working on improving the software with new features and the regular training sessions are very informative.

Cons

Feature to upload documents is very helpful but a drawback is that your need to replace the documents once updated. Using hyperlinks would mean that the documents on the systems are current.

April 16, 2021

5.0

Lybryo was extremely helpful with the implementation of our ISO 14001 and 45001 Management Systems. It's an easy way for our busy top management team to stay informed with legal and regulatory changes as well as whether other key stake holders in the company get to know the law and their compliance status.

Pros

The short overview with the option to read the full updates; I'm assured that legal updates are never missed

Cons

There's no legal updating service for businesses exporting or trading with other international business partners.

Pros

The platform makes it easier to locate the law that applies to a given assessment item.
