Formwork is our own software, so, brace for impact, this review might be biased.
Still, let me try to be objective here: Our goal for Formwork was to be different. We looked at other QMS software on the market and tried to improve upon all those things which made them so terrible. Our most important goals were:
No lock-in, export your data any time. You can literally push a button and export your data any time in a structured format. That means you can move to another QMS software any time if you’re unhappy. This is in huge contrast to other providers who try hard to lock you in. They also try to lock you in by committing to their software for months or even years (see next section).
No commitments, monthly payments. You pay monthly via credit card and can cancel any time. Contrast this with other QMS software providers which lock you in for at least 12 months, if not multiple years. How is that okay?
Unlimited users, flat fee, transparent pricing. You only pay one flat fee per month – the one listed on our website. The price includes unlimited user accounts, so you won’t pay any additional fees if your company grows. Our competitors, again, try to scale up their pricing dramatically once your company is going to grow.
Compliant out of the box. There’s no setup needed. Formwork is set up out of the box to be compliant with ISO 13485, IEC 62304, ISO 14971 and IEC 62366. You won’t lose precious time getting started. Just create your account and start writing documentation.
Try before you buy: We offer free trials of the paid versions of Formwork. Just reach out! Most of our competitors don’t allow you to try out their software (crazy, right?) and assume you’ll purchase based on sales demos and videos they send you – insane.
