    Once I had to search the logs to find cases and data on a particular keyword, but I was not able to do so as there was no search tool available, nor was there a sort or filter tool. I was totally frustrated as I had to skim through the data to complete my task manually.

    This is one of the most user-friendly QMS programs I have used because it does not require lengthy training to navigate the system. We are able to bring on a new employee and have them start their own initial onboard training in Qualio with only a simple introductory message that shares a few key instructions. The available training in Qualio Help has proved very effective when needed. An individual can pick whatever training is appropriate at that moment and there will be instructions on demand on any topic related to Qualio operations. Qualio is relatively new software and is maturing with a responsive staff that releases new updates on a monthly, weekly, or even daily basis. It has grown incapability in the two years I have used it and it continues to evolve through customer inputs and looking at other state-of-the-art products. The staff listen and respond quickly compared to my past experiences with other QMS software. There is an opportunity for them to provide more and better features, but the gap is closing and the Qualio engineers have been very collaborative to work with, providing us opportunities to participate in their directions for growth.

    Pros
    Discontinued Products
    • Desk.com automatically tracks analytics on all cases coming in and going out.
    • Desk.com helps prevent multiple people from working on the same case. However, it does allow us to assign the case to someone else if we feel that person is more qualified to address the case.
    • Desk.com has very few bugs or server issues that we've seen. This helps prevent any delays in communicating with our customers.

    • Readily available policy documents to access any at any time which we wanted to access.
    • Quickly identify, understand and compare the older and newer version difference of the SOPs and to understand the changes which have made.
    • all the SOPs DOPs at the same place with secured access.
    • Particularly the upgraded version of Qualio is so classic and the dashboard and menus are easily able to understand to any new user as well.

    Cons
    Discontinued Products
    • Internal knowledge tools are clunky and annoying to access, outside the regular workflow of everyday staff
    • Arbitrary and confusing limitations in business rules and custom fields
    • Arbitrary and confusing limitations in case handling - for example, if you begin a case as a phone call you CANNOT email the customer from the case. As though no one working at Desk has ever sent a follow-up email...?
    • Not very good for B2B, mid-to-large businesses. Difficult to set business rules based on company information (for example, service level/tier) and nearly impossible to track key stakeholders and get clear insight into the relationship at a high level
    • Reporting tools are clunky, slow, and just all-around pretty useless

    • I would appreciate if similar documents are grouped together. For instance if engineering documents are put in one category and management document in a different category
    • Qualio has links to external documents but it would be helpful if it linked the user to sections within the document also
    • I would prefer that users be able to purchase licences directly without contacting a representative

    We will be very likely to renew our contract with Desk.com. It is easy to use, and provides us with everything we need to keep our customers and employees happy. They have also been very helpful in catering the application to our specific and unique needs, including working across brands and adding specific content for our products

    as i already mentioned earlier.... Qualio definitely makes things run smoother, especially with keeping compliance in check and reducing errors. The setup took a bit to get everyone on board, and yeah, the costs can stack up over time. But overall, it’s been a solid tool that’s saved us time and stress, so it’s definitely worth it.

    Usability

    Desk.com and Salesforce Service Cloud's usability is seamless to get up and running, administer, and scale across the organization. It allows us to get up and running in days rather than weeks and has transformed our customer support teams globally into efficient, world-class teams. The best practices that the Salesforce and Desk.com teams provide are also very valuable, as we have the right case studies and tips to implement right away in our organization.

    I think the system is usable, but only to a certain extent. If the organization using Qualio did not outright need audit trails and functionality around metadata compliance, then it would be an okay system to use. However, there are systems that are approximately the same cost, but are fully compliant. It depends on your organizations needs

    Their support leaves much to be desired. They do not respond quickly and do not follow up with feature requests. There is also a lack of on-demand or live training available for the teams to use as they learn a new tool. Because there is so much customization, a lot of questions do come up regularly.

    Two great things Qualio has for customer support. 1. They are available online and on the phone, if needed, 24/7 with very friendly and knowledgeable people. Usually, the wait is no more than 10 or 15 min, and while you wait, you can search their online help library. I used to call first, but now I've found that their online help library usually has he answers already and the instructions are clear. Usually, I learn more than I needed. So I now go there first and only call if I don't find anything in the online help library.

    As I stated earlier, implementation of Desk.com went more smoothly than most. The resources in the "Support Center" are fantastic, and I never ran into anything that left me stumped, angry, or disappointed.

    Overall, it performs a lot better than all three combined, with a lot fewer glitches and a lot more user-friendly and user experience efficiency. Any new link that needs to be done, takes a lot less time to execute on desk compared to the three others. Simply advanced when it comes to execution this platform is.

    We selected Qualio over Greenlight Guru because of the flexibility offered in adapting the system to support software as a medical device (SaMD) processes. Greenlight Guru was more expensive and very focused on hardware medical devices which did not fit our needs.

    Return on Investment
    Discontinued Products
    • Better customer service and employee efficiency when dealing with cases
    • It's so universal, meaning that everyone can use it and it's easy to understand.
    • The only negative impact is that our IT department who is assigned tickets has responded to customers instead of to the local reps and we have to ensure they know to change the email if it's assigned to them.

    • The number of emails received.. end up just deleting as it is spamming my inbox.
    • Benefitting from E-sign approvals.
    • Keeping track of our documents in a efficient and better way.
    • Amazing to use a cloud based system where everything is not on paper.
