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. Review Source AD Anna D. Registered Nurse Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Thorough & concise " November 5, 2025 5.0 The product is user friendly and works well for our company. We have multiple locations. Employees find it useful. Pros The presentation was very helpful and concise. I especially appreciated how the presenter went through the steps for each item discussed. Cons I was not logged in, but able to follow along with the host's screen. That was my fault, not the host's. Review Source AS Andrew S. Environmental, Health and Safety Food & Beverages Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source MN Mangala N. CHO Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source LJ LORI J. IT SPECIALIST Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "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. Review Source MO Megan O. Environmental health and safety specialist Aviation & Aerospace Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Recommending this Training" October 16, 2025 5.0 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.. Review Source CF Carl F. Safety Tech Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source JE James E. Director EHS Business Supplies and Equipment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent Tool for Managing Safety Data Sheets" November 4, 2025 4.0 Very positive. Great and frequent training is offered and is also recorded to slow access at a later time so you can learn at your own pace. Also, very responsive customer service. Pros Great powerful tool to manage SDS across multiple sites. Very easy for end users to search for and access data sheets eliminating the need for huge binders. Cons A little complicated to use, especially at first. I’ve gone through multiple training sessions, and have found them very helpful. Review Source HL Hank L. HSE Leader Machinery Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Curren User" November 4, 2025 4.0 Good, I have many locations using the SDS and ergonomics modules. We are benefitting from there and trying to add additional features if we can get approval. Pros AI usage with the selections and suggestions. AI for the ergonomics evaluations and ease of use for non specialized employees. Cons Price of the software packages. Some of the pricing gets expensive and most companies are trying to cut costs.

I Would like velocity to be able to sue the QR code or UPC codes to link tk the chemical prodcut and then track it through MY inventory! Review Source PV Patricia V. Projects Assistant Government Administration Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Impeccable Customer Service & Easy to Use" September 9, 2025 5.0 So far, it has been easy to use. I enjoy seeing all the locations and being able to search at each location. Having the archive has been extremely helpful. Overall the system is user friendly and easy to navigate. Pros The customer support is impeccable. The ease of use and learning is extremely helpful to us as we are just starting to use this software more. Cons I don't know enough about the system yet. But it seems a bit confusing to on how the SDSs get updated - continually approving the updates seems tedious. Review Source AB Alan B. Supervisor Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Review-AJB" November 11, 2025 4.0 Very good. The information is very beneficial to the job. We do here at Cardinal health and was presented concisely. Pros Good thorough explanations, good examples shown. Presenter did a very thorough job of covering the information. Cons Not applicable. The information was valuable, concise and presented in an easy to understand manner. Review Source LL Lance L.

The trainer was very helpful and knowledgeable about the product. Pros Clear training and PowerPoint was helpful. The system seems very user friendly and clear. Thank you for the training. Cons It was all very helpful. The trainer was very clear and moved through the topic with grace. I’m excited to start using it. Review Source KC Kevin C. Senior Focus Factory Manager Architecture & Planning Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Ergonomics " September 10, 2025 4.0 Has been good with little to none interruption which makes it so easy to train new employees on the job. Pros All in place, easy to use good tools, even beginners can navigate around the site. It is linked to our sds Cons The video voice was a little garbeled, it is not very user friendly on the phone which is where all users need Review Source DB Diego B. Environmental Coordinator Civil Engineering Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Good but could be better" November 6, 2025 4.0 8/10 I like where the product is heading and think it will be very very useful in the future for our company. Pros I like how in depth it goes regarding SDSs. Its nice to see all the pdfs, maps, and dates/names for all to see. Cons The UI, its not so user friendly, things are hard to find. I've tried adding products to my elibrary and they disappear/never show up. I don't think its super intuitive. Review Source RB Renata B.

It’s easy to follow, clear instructions and the video helps with example visuals for comparison.

Environmental specialist Civil Engineering Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Webinar Administrator " September 9, 2025 5.0 Pros I didn’t know much about VelocityEHS so it was a good presentation. My company uses it so now I feel more comfortable in using the tool. Cons Didn’t have any cons. The speaker was very helpful and explained the content well. I now have a better understanding of the platform. Review Source BB Brian B. Life Safety Coordinator Law Enforcement Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source KG Ken G. Safety Technician Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### "City of Grand Rapids Experiences " 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 Review Source BM Breece M. Lab Tech Senior Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source SK Steve K. EHS/Facilities Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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 Review Source RK Rutger K. Corporate Risk Manager Utilities Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. VR Verified Reviewer Regulatory, Safety & Environment Technician Oil & Energy Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Review Source GK Grant K. HSE Manager Chemicals Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source Response from VelocityEHS June 28, 2019 Thanks for your feedback. Glad to hear that it is meeting your needs. Can you tell us which functionality would you like to use on the mobile app? BB Ben B. National Project Controller Utilities Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. ## Send me user reviews about this product ### Fill out the form and we'll send a list of the top-rated software based on real user reviews directly to your inbox.
