    Qualio did not appear to be as robust a solution as Greenlight Guru, and in particular, did not have as strong of design control and risk management capabilities for medical devices. MasterControl was too involved and expensive, and the extra benefits that MasterControl …

    If you are looking for a medical device specific eQMS that you do not need to customize, Greenlight Guru is for you. With most of the other eQMS solutions out there, they are not industry specific, so you have to customize it to meet your needs. They also have built in …

    Chose Qualio
    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.

    Greenlight Guru
    Greenlight Guru is well-suited for medical device companies. They have exceptional resources that are especially helpful for smaller, start-up type companies, including customizable SOPs, Forms, and Work Instructions, as well as countless other educational resources on focused topics like Risk Management or Auditing. Greenlight Guru is NOT currently able to be integrated into any ERP systems and therefore may be difficult for the Operations and Quality aspects of the organization if, for example, manufacturing is being performed in-house, and the ERP system is used to document all quality events. (In this case, it would be redundant to also document them in Greenlight Guru - although could potentially be useful to document investigation details.) Greenlight Guru also only allows documents to be uploaded one at a time, so for companies that want to convert their existing DHF or other QMS files into Greenlight Guru for completeness, this process could be incredibly time consuming.

    Qualio
    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.

    • Readily available policy documents to access any at any time which we wanted to access.

    • all the SOPs DOPs at the same place with secured access.

    Cons
    Greenlight Guru
    • Periodic review of documents is an industry standard that is missing
    • Would love a training matrix similar to the design matrix that links with procedures/work instructions
    • Ability to modify or add parameters in the analytics function for better trending metrics
    • Ability to modify or add to predetermined "lists" in CAPA, Audits, Nonconformance workspaces

    Qualio
    • 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

    Qualio
    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.

    Qualio
    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

    Qualio
    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.

    Alternatives Considered
    Greenlight Guru
    Greenlight Guru definitely has the better/more easily understood UI. I've tried several other training systems and haven't bumped into any of the issues I've faced before, like my training being completed by another person or glitches within the system. Greenlight Guru is a program that doesn't take too long to learn to use and get used to using.
