## Reviews

### "Two years in and still convinced it was the best option for us" — 5.0/5

> **Paul** | *12 December 2024* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use&#10;All modules have the same feel&#10;Has improved efficiency and level of interaction of the QMS with the business&#10;Leading our digital transformation
> 
> **Cons**: The original training module was not suitable and the updated one has all of the functionality but implementing it with the document management module live has created a lot of extra work.
> 
> Superb - happy with the choice and happy to see the results its delivering.

-----

### "ETQ - User friendly and concise" — 5.0/5

> **George** | *28 October 2024* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: ETQ has made my life 100x easier. Having everything in one place that is easy to navigate is great.
> 
> **Cons**: Being in the UK the ETQ support team and I do not line up with working ours all the time due to the time difference but we always find a way

-----

### "Document control with a bit to be desired" — 3.0/5

> **Andy** | *7 April 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: ETQ Reliance offers a large library of company-related documents. Emails automatically get sent out when a new training is due.
> 
> **Cons**: The site is a bit difficult to navigate to find old documents I have read before. It would be nice if things were organized better to more easily find documents grouped by topic. The site also logs out automatically after just a few minutes of "inactivity", which are typically spent reading the documents. In order to read the documents, they must be downloaded and cannot be read directly on the site.
> 
> Overall, I have to use ETQ to keep up with compliance for my company. I'm usually never excited to use it, both because the content I'm reading isn't the most exhilarating, and because the site itself isn't the easiest to navigate.

-----

### "If you can pick something else, you should" — 2.0/5

> **Haliee** | *14 April 2025* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: There isn't a ton that I like about this system if I'm honest. My only upside would be that it can be accessed via the web?
> 
> **Cons**: It's not aesthetic, it is not intuitive to navigate, it has difficulty parsing documents with multiple attachments without flagging that there are duplicates and preventing it from happening to begin with.
> 
> Overall, I dread supporting our users with ETQ and I think it lacks critical quality of life features and organizations options.

-----

### "ETQ Reliance is the best quality management system out there" — 5.0/5

> **Adam** | *20 November 2025* | Chemicals | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The customization for creating process workflows to meet our needs and the document management system are both elite
> 
> **Cons**: The thing I liked least about ETQ Reliance is the per license cost and the restrictions this provides our users
> 
> The overall experience has been great and the Reliance team is excellent to work with when implementing new modules or changes that are needed
