Prior to ETQ we were using spreadsheets and shared drives and the ability to pull information was challenging. It was a very manual process done by many people. Now, it is somewhat manually input by one or two people and the retrieval of information can be done by anyone …

ETQ Reliance is great for quality systems in which different levels of personnel are accessing common documents. The user interface and basic functionality is very intuitive, and thus easy to navigate for both novice and experienced technical users. It is also great at organizing tasks and maintaining document attributes. Overall, great for the purposes of an audit. For more advanced users, it may be limited in functionality. Data analytics and related visualization is more easily done after exporting data and manipulating in third-party software programs.

The QMS is well suited for standardizing the steps that go along with a process. The workflows and activity ownership makes it very easy to make sure that processes are completed according to the way the workflow is displayed. It becomes very simple to track down the stage at which a process is at. Processes are done in a linear orderly manner.

  • Although the configuration is a "no code" approach, there is a learning curve to effecting design changes.
  • The user guide documentation provided is OK for administrators but needs to be more user-friendly for general users.
  • Importing "legacy" data from existing processes can be cumbersome.

Usability
It is easy to use and covers expectations
Read full review
There is always resistance to change, but users are finding Intellect QMS to exceed their expectations as we migrate from our legacy "island" Sharepoint-based processes. Training is actually easiest to do hands-on, and users can learn quickly and then help train others. Users appreciate the personal navigation dashboard and the familiarity of the interface from one application to another. The workflow-driven applications are intuitive and make the system easy to navigate for all levels of users, although the learning curves will vary. The "Design-Test-Live" approach facilitates the implementation of configuration changes suggested by users.

Support Rating
The quality of support is great. In my experience, the staff is very friendly and understanding, the timeliness is good but could use some improvement. With this software supporting a critical business need, the time window for troubleshooting issues is usually very small. Issues are typically resolved within a week, but would be more beneficial if resolved more quickly.
