ETQ Reliance QMS vs. IBM Envizi

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 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.
