Quality Manager

The responsiveness of their Customer Service team is awesome. I would highly recommend this software to anyone looking to find an easier all in one solution for managing a Quality System.

QCBD has been an instrumental tool in my ability to succeed in the role of a Quality Manager at our company.

IT Manager

It is very easy to grasp and is an excellent system for tracking quality. The system is also very good to manage as an IT manager the build is really good and the data is very robust.

Quality/Regulatory Consultant

QCBD's ease of use, customization to user's needs, & awesome modular design, has always impressed auditors & inspectors, as well as the manufacturer's own customers.

Customer support is always timely, thorough, and thoughtful with their help and our suggestions or ideas for improving QCBD have been addressed.

QA Manager

I love this quality system and is a great aid in day to day operations.

Document Control Specialist

A few things i noticed while completing the validation of QCDB for InControl Medical were, some of the wording in the validation instructions was unclear or miss guiding.

President

This was a vast improvement for our company; the most challenging part of implementing was convincing the staff this was a necessary step in continuous improvement.

There are quite a few typographical and grammatical errors within the software itself, the manuals, and the validation test instructions.

Sr. Quality Engineer

Great software for linking together many aspects of the business.

Quality Assurance Manager

Easy to use and customize, records in each module can be linked, cannot beat the value for the money, customer support is top notch.

V.P. of Engineering

Ease of use, SQL-based, thin client software easy to distribute to the whole company.

The list goes on, but the software is very easy to understand and easy to integrate.

QCBD is truly the best investment we’ve made as part of our ISO prep.

We have had a very good experience with QCBD. The learning curve is steep if one has never used a system like this or they are new to QMS, but that may not be unique to QCBD.

If there is the option to "Hide" fields within tabs it makes the layouts obscure.

Technical Director and QAO

I have gotten used to looking for the module info, but seeing a CA numered 1508 and a change order numbered 1508 is a little confusing at first glance.

Sr. Quality Assurance Specialist

Also, the integration of modules and being able to link between different records has made our control of documents and records much easier, including training.

Great Software!

I use QCBD daily. I use it most of my day. I also teach QCBD in the new hire orientation classes.  I have worked on many different types of systems and QCBD is by far the best I have worked on.

QCBD to support QMS for medical software devices

QCBD has been an instrumental tool in my ability to succeed in the role of a Quality Manager at our company. 

Algas-SDI International LLC

If you are searching for software to make audits successful, store information in one location, make info easily searchable, email automated reports, and earn positive comments from the auditors you encounter, then this software is a must-have.
All of the above back with top-notch customer support is why our company recommends QCBD!


One word comes to mind when describing this software, phenomenal! 

QCBD has significantly upgraded the paper based system that was in use and helped remove silos to better understand and manage our QMS. We have taken control of the quality system and have established the QMS as a value added business group. The benefits of a custom configuration have allowed us to personalize the system. The implementation and configuration of the software included a deep dive into our quality system to ensure the software and the system worked together. It was a valuable exercise to review processes and procedures to ensure they were optimized.  

Great product and customer service

Great software for linking together many aspects of the business

I have found the application to be superb for our needs. The setup and the especially the customer service we have received as a business has been world class. We are really seeing the benefits now of using the system in the business and the customer services team especially [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] have helped us overcome the challenges presented by COVID and also our growth by provided excellent communications and also timely responses to ensure we can continue to use this fantastic application without any downtime.  We recently passed an AS9100 audit here and QCBD played a big role in that.

Fantastic Product and Customer Service! A** Highly recommended

I have been using this software for 10+ years with 2 different companies. 

Best bang for your buck

I love this quality system and is a great aid in day to day operations. 

Great functionality, regardless if you are a large or small company

We just passed our 12 month ISO9001 surveillance audit with zero non-compliances.  Our entire QMS audit was conducted in a conference with pretty much nothing by QCBD up on the screen going through various processes and procedures.   QCBD is truly the best investment we’ve made as part of our ISO prep.

QCBD for Embedded Computing Industry

I needed a way to electronically route documents and I had a limited budget. As our company grows we many not be able to keep this system, but I hope we can. Our parent company really does not like this software. Other divisions wanted to try it, but they indicated it would not happen.

Mostly Pleased with this product

Thank you for your feedback. The glitch in the recent update has been resolved. Searches that you create can be saved as "Saved Queries". The Report Engine can provide automatic email notifications such as the calibration due that your describe.

We use QCBD for  Complaints, Supplier Management, Nonconformances, Corrective Action, Training and have most recently started using it for PM.

We love it.  QCBD is the linchpin for almost everything we do with respect to QMS and quality improvement.

QCBD makes IOS9001 Audits a breeze!

QCBD is allowing Thermo Fisher Scientific, Scotts Valley, to upgrade the quality and efficiency of our QMS as the major component of re-instituting an ISO 9001:2015 registration for our site.

I highly recommend this software for any organization in need of an easy to use and manage quality system.

Outstanding

We have used QCBD since 2012 when we started to seriously work toward certification to ISO 13485.  QCBD facilitated our certification readiness because the QMS forms/records function (customer complaints, change orders, process deviations, corrective actions, etc) ensures that the completeness of documentation is consistent; data fields can be set to "required".  Document revision control is further ensured because QCBD automatically prints a release status and print date timestamp along the top edge of each page, by default.  User access is managed with a flexible system of use privileges/right as set by a QCBD Administrator.  The electronic signature feature is compliant with 21 CFR Part 11.  Lots of features.  I 100% recommend QCBD to anyone who asks.  

Amazing QMS software.  Unbelievable price.  Unparalleled technical support.  A real find!!

Good service

Our company benefited greatly by purchasing and installing QCBD as our quality management system. The results were apparent within the first couple months when reporting began that QCBD software really does work.

Its a great solution that provides great management tools for any size company. I have used the software at two different companies and has seen major improvements within the quality system.

The QCBD software has been without a doubt, a significant improvement in our QMS system.

I have helped various clients achieve FDA Reg. compliance with QCBD-it is my #1 QMS software choice!

I have experience with other 4 Quality software, all of them requires a lot of training. However QCBD was the more easy to learn how to used, the same week I started on my new company I was able to created reports.

A very intuitive software very easy to use, with a excellent price to accomplish regulation. 

My first experience with QCBD, the company already had it installed.  The other two realized the opportunity and instituted the application without reservations. Management, auditors and operators enjoy how simple it is to use and how easy it is to find the QMS information and data.

I am now at my 3rd company using QCBD.  Each has benefited greatly for audits and day to day use.

Organizes all my ISO requirements in one location

Effective Quality Database software at reasonable cost

It facilitates our work managing our system. modules cover main issues. Automatic e-mail remainders may be great to improve follow up.

Good application

Thank you for your feedback. There is an optional feature called the "Report Engine". The Report Engine will allow you to configure the software to send e-mail notifications and reminders automatically. 

We are an aerospace, defense and medical technology company and use QCBD across 8 sites and utilize every module. While we have a separate MRP/ERP and document data vault, we utilize the Master List and Change Management modules along with the other modules. We have had excellent feedback from our AS9100, ISO 13485 and our many on-site customer audits regarding our use of QCBD. QCBD has become a staple for our company.

QCBD is an excellent easy to use quality software

I tested out numerous QMS systems, and QCBD was the easiest to use.  Not to mention, i's on your network, so there's no worry about those cloud database's monthly or annual charges.
