“Additionally, the reports generated from audits is not good for using in a presentation. If you have pictures, the pictures in the audit report can be rotated automatically and you cannot correct it and separated from the section where the image should be.“

### "Flawless chemical management"

February 5, 2019

5.0

I use this software to keep track of all the hazardous materials in our lab. It's great at organizing your inventory and the accessibility of the GHS SDS is a great advantage.

Pros

I like the different options to track and manage hazardous chemicals. I can access all the Safety Data Sheets from any device, including my phone! It's efficient and simple. I love the option to customize our labels, it helps us have a new organization in our lab.

Cons

The regulatory reports were hard to produce at first because of the layout of the software. It is not hard to understand, it just feels a little too out of place.

### "Excellent Experience Using VelocityEHS at SUNY"

October 8, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with VelocityEHS has been excellent. It’s user-friendly, reliable, and helps chemical management processes effectively across departments.

Pros

I really liked how easy VelocityEHS is to use. The interface is simple and intuitive, making it easy to find information& track data. It saves time and helps ensure compliance.

Cons

The only downside I’ve noticed is the difficulty in generating reports. It often takes a long time for the system to process and create the report, which can be inconvenient when data is needed quickly for meetings or compliance purposes.

### "High Costs but many options to choose"

June 16, 2025

2.0

Overall experience with Velocity was good, we mainly utilized their SDS software and evaluated other modules and options.

Pros

We were with Velocity for just over 20 years and was able to watch them grow as a company. They have a very large platform and offer many services.

Cons

Velocity has become a very large company and has lost the personal and customer focused approach. Pricing has also now outweighed the value and benefit of the platform.

### "TRAINING ON 10/8/25"

October 8, 2025

5.0

My only experience so far was the training that was provided to us today 10/8/25, and the training was wonderful! Very easy to follow along and understand what he was showing us. Very well done! Thank you!

Pros

This review was simply regarding the training that was provided to us today 10/8/25. The presenter was amazing! He did not rush, and spoke in a language that was easy to understand. I have not started using this system yet, but for the training piece of it, the gentleman did a GREAT job! Thank you!

Cons

Have not started using the system yet, so nothing to report quite yet. I will make sure to come back once I have started using the system.

### "Carls review"

October 8, 2025

4.0

Velocity EHS is easy to use and easy to train people on. I can build folders and subfolders so each department or location has their own set of chemicals. That simplies their Hazcom training.

Pros

great customer support from Velocity EHS. They are alwats quick to get back to me. And they have the right answer.

Cons

the sds updates seem to be behind. Someti.es that is because the manufacturer has slightly changed the product name.

October 16, 2025

Very happy so far. Love that you can print GHS labels. The ease of finding my SDS is very helpful,

Pros

Very easy to follow what he was saying. I really liked being able to print labels, for hazard or GHS.

Cons

Nothing - training was informative. I have nothing negative to say, but I did go quick so I do want to rewatch the training..

Custoner support and online training. Ability to get saved training to refer back to. The training was great, went at a pace i could follow

November 4, 2025

Very good. As a new responsibility for SDS sheets this program makes the responsibility easy to master.

Pros

Ease of use and access on the internet. It has a huge library and the use of locations is very user friendly.

Cons

Sorting through various versions of same product. There will be multiple products with the same name.

November 9, 2025

5.0

Overall, I highly recommend the training. The instructor was knowledgeable of the material, paused for questions in the chat and answered each question fully.

Pros

I liked most about Velocity EHS is the user friendly interface. How the instructor made the material fun to learn and relevant to safety in the workplace.

Cons

The part I least liked about Velocity EHS training was the slow pacing of the material. The training time was not the best for me.

5.0

Pros

The simplicity of the website and how user friendly it is from an administrative stand point and generic user!!

How many products are no longer in use but that is more a user error and org error on our part for not maintaining our site!

### "Velocity EHS in Corrections"

March 15, 2023

5.0

The department has used MSDS Online, now Velocity EHS since 2009. Could not be more satisfied.

Pros

MSDS/SDS management is most critical for the Department. We have 22 correctional facilities, plus headquarters and parole. All of these areas have access to the Department ebinder, as well as their own facility/office ebinders. Having access to this helps all areas keep their MSDS/SDS and chemical control in line by having the ability to know what chemicals/products are approved for use in the department.

Cons

Reports used to be easier to use. They used to be able to be exported in .pdf or .rtf which were formatted in a printable way. Now with export to excel spreadsheets, the reports have to be extensively edited to be able to get all of the information we use onto a printable page. We use product summary reports for our allowable chemical lists in our chemical inventory books, so a format that will print them in an 8 1/2 or 11x14 size would be great.

March 24, 2023

5.0

This chemical management system was extremely timely, trying to manage those old SDS three ring binders were a mess. Overall, the experience has been good, and I would recommend this product to any other company needed these services.

Pros

The ease and functionality of the system, also having 24/7 access online.

Cons

We are having trouble refreshing our system, I've spoken to a few customers service reps and it's still not working?

Reason for choosing VelocityEHS

Recommendation from another government agency

### "Great Product for Container Tracking and SDS management"

November 13, 2018

5.0

This is great for small businesses if you can afford the cost. The issues come in with expanding companies and larger and larger cost. Cost aside it is a great product and would highly recommend to small organizations.

Pros

This system allows for barcode tracking of containers. The mobile app is very helpful. There are very few SDSs/MSDSs that are not included and definitely boast correctly when they say a large selection.

Cons

The biggest disadvantage of this system is the price. You are charge not by space but by how many people potential are viewing the inventory. This is cloud base so even view only people are counted. (people without accounts) The IT staff is awesome while the sale associates have little knowledge of the product they are selling, and are not able to answer pricing questions without discussing with supervisors. It seems to be a small cloud run business out a building with a couple of people which is fine because the product is awesome but the service from sales has much to be desired.

### "Pros to chemical management"

May 9, 2023

5.0

I brought Velocity to my current employer from my previous and have recommended them to others on multiple occasions. Great product serves a purpose and is within a reasonable price point.

Pros

In many workplaces chemical management is overlooked, it can be cumbersome task that takes many man hours and often times the amount of materials does not justify the lost hours spent monitoring the program. After the initial start up costs its just more feasible to have Velocity manage the chemicals.

Cons

Ease of use, accessibility to information and costing

### "Not great"

June 25, 2019

3.0

We try to use RiskView to manage our critical risks, but the way the application is set up, the slow and complicated navigation through the system, the clunky screen layout and the frequent bugs and slow customer service response times (partially caused by the fact that Perth is 4 hours behind NZ) are making this hard.

Pros

The fact that I can build bow ties and use the system to provide Annualised Loss Expectancy for all risks.

Cons

The screen layout is clunky and the system is overly complicated. Browsing between bow ties takes time as you have to go via the root of the menu, reading and printing bow ties is difficult and it contains errors such as garbled up bowties.

Review Source

Response from VelocityEHS

June 28, 2019

Thanks for your feedback. And apologies as we had no idea how bad your experience has been. Firstly, the latest release has corrected the issue around bowties not being laid out correctly in certain circumstances. Re the other issues around navigation, we would like to organise a screen share with you so that we can better understand your challenges and fix them ASAP. Thanks again for your feedback.

### "Entry Level Software"

January 15, 2019

4.0

Great for small businesses looking to make the first step out of spreadsheets. Incident and inspection tracking, monitoring and reporting functions that allow for multiple user inputs.

Pros

Easy to use modules. Price is very reasonable. One of the lowest I've seen. Velocity EHS allows for flexibility which dashboards and creating forms for one time use.

Cons

Does not include smart storage. Repopulating a form is not yet possible. No document storage that allows for offline use. No dashboard on the mobile app.

### "A flexible, easy to access solution "

June 26, 2019

4.0

My overall experience has been excellent. Riskview has allowed us the flexibilty to accelerate some components of our program i.e. control verification and the only issues we have had in executing our program vision is entirely on our side. Meerkat have been extremely helpful in providing suggestions and solutions to some of our self inflicted problems e.g. duplicate data, poorly described controls etc.

Pros

I like most, the easy access provided to our employees on the ground to complete a verification.

Cons

I like least, that there more functions are not available via the mobile App.

### "Visual risk mapping"

June 25, 2019

4.0

Positive. Very engaging for the team to visually identify with where we need to do more work around controls or inversely, controls are adequately in place for managing probability of some causes/ mitigating consequences.

Pros

Ability to see the effectiveness of controls and controls common to managing other causes

Cons

If you've got a larger size bowtie, this doesnt lend itself well to printing or pdf printing. Have to wrestle with dimensions and page options, printing/ reprinting.

Review Source

Response from VelocityEHS

June 28, 2019

Thanks for your feedback. Would you be available to share with us how you would like to print larger bowties and we will move to implement ASAP.
