What We Are Hearing

5

Clunky / Ugly

Won’t run on 64 bit computers

Doesn’t work with Email

Can’t use my iPad

Can’t use my Smartphone

My business is changing, my software is not keeping up

New AS9100C changes make my QMS software obsolete

I have to call IT to get a report / chart

Inflexible – too rigid

Poor security and audit trails

My old QMS vendor is non-responsiveIt costs more to get the current version

then to buy a new app!

We waited ‘years’ for the new web version

and what we got is very disappointing

– Requires extensive training

– Requires customization to fit your needs

– Forces people to adapt to the software

• Listen to the people, understand their process, and help them do it better
