Where Comind.work is different
Run on your own infrastructure, private cloud, or our managed cloud. Qualio is cloud-only. If your data residency, security, or IT policies require on-premises hosting, Comind.work gives you that option without compromise.
Know your total cost upfront. No per-user pricing that scales unpredictably as your team grows. One project fee covers implementation, configuration, and the first six months of usage.
A working QMS recording quality activities in 21 days - not a sandbox. Your processes configured, your team trained, and validation documentation delivered.
You receive the complete source code and documentation. No vendor lock-in. If you ever want to leave, you take everything with you.
Being honest
Qualio has 500+ customers and a longer track record in the life sciences QMS market. More public case studies and a larger community of users.
Qualio was built specifically for life sciences from day one. Their product roadmap and feature development is entirely focused on this vertical.
Qualio offers native integrations with popular life sciences tools and has had more time to build out their integration marketplace.
