"Marketing experiences with Veeva Vault"

8 February 2025
5.0 Show more details
Overall, its probably the best system I have used for document management. Veeva have thought of everything. You can pay less for other systems, but on the surface they seem to do the same, but when you start using them, the finer details and features are lacking with other systems. Stability is also very good. It doesn't freeze when managing large documents. It doesn't crash. This might sound basic, but other systems freeze and crash on a weekly basis, wasting time.
I have used 4 of these systems at large international pharmaceutical companies, and this is my preferred system.
Pros:
As job creator, it is easy to upload documents, link documents as references, and send virtual job bags to a team for review and sign-off. It date stamps each action, which covers you, if project run late, it objectively demonstrates where bottle necks are in an organisations 'sign-off' team. As a reviewer, the exact text in a substantiating reference to a claims made in documents are shown, saving time looking for exactly the right text in a reference. It is intuitive to use, if have experience using other review and approval systems. It is reliable and doesn't crash like other systems. In 2 years I have never needed to call their Support team. It can handle different media types for review, such as pdf, video, etc very well, better than predecessor systems.
Cons:
As a job creator, it takes time linking references to a document, unless you like repetitive tasks. If you upload a new amended version after 1st review of a document, it can loose the linked references. Which if its a 10 page document with 30 references is frustrating. There is a copy references, button, which does take the references into a new document, but it can drop links to which text the references are substantiating. As a reviewer, it has no Cons.

"A powerful tool for businesses"

Positive but there are elements which could be improved
Pros:
It has many functionalities and menus and the ability to filter your search effectively
Cons:
The RIM (Record information management) structure is cumbersome to me: the interplay between an event, a submission, a regulatory objective and an application is complicate

"A good choice for life science"

9 November 2025
4.0 Show more details
Overall experience Veeva Vault is a strong choice for organizations operating under strict Life Sciences regulations that need a unified, validated platform for content and quality processes. Its biggest strengths are compliance readiness and configurable workflows. Conversely, projects that under-resource configuration often face usability issues and disappointing search/results.
Pros:
You can model complex processes (change control, deviations, labeling, regulatory submissions) without custom code, keeping upgrades straightforward.
Cons:
If content is poorly tagged, search efficacy drops. Automated classification is improving but still requires process discipline.

"The pharma-grade content management must have."

10 July 2025
4.0 Show more details
We simplified document workflows, were audit-ready, and shortened the approval cycle, something essential for maintaining compliance and progress in our pharmaceutical pipeline.
Pros:
Vault was made for our industry. I like that integrated audit logs as well as GxP compliant. Controlled documents, such as batch records and labels are easier to manage than ever.
Cons:
It’s not expensive, and admittedly had a steep learning curve for non-regulatory or seasonal professionals.
