Document Control Software

There are some posts on this blog about documentation, and our site (www.the9000store.com) gives some information on document control, but I've never felt comfortable enought to recommend a software package for electronic document control.  We've looked at several software solutions, but none seemed to match our expectations of user friendliness, cost-effectiveness, and flexibility.

Then we found a little gem called Clearaudit - and they meet all our criteria: Simple and Intuitive, Flexible and User Friendly, Cost Effective (less than three dollars per day.) while being Scalable. We've played around with it, and can recommend this product 100% without any hesitation...See for yourself. I know some people who have bought it already and love it.

Some of the features and benefits of Clearaudit:

  • Custom folders allow you to take complete control over your document library
  • Approval functionality enables collaboration: Track approvals to ensure no one is left out of the loop
  • Trace document distributions to avoid lost copies of obsolete manuals
  • Improve productivity by sharing approved quality policies, work instructions, and processes with employees
  • Ensure compliance with ISO quality requirements with minimal pain and cost

Since Clearaudit is pure web-based software you have nothing to install and can get started right away. No IT involvement is needed. It has all of the elements of a *full-featured quality management system* for ISO Certification:

  • Non-Conformances
  • Calibration Records
  • Customer Complaints
  • Supplier Quality
  • Audit Management
  • Corrective & Preventive Actions
  • Training & Employees
  • Document Management, and more

I'll let them (Clearaudit) give you the details, but i recommend signing up for a free demo to see for yourself.
