“The tooltips and conditional questions help the auditor review each area as intended, takes out the guess work, and removes some of the mental burden on the auditor from having to remember to check a second area based on the findings of the first, given that conditional questions shoulder that burden. As mentioned, the Certainty Support team is very quick, responsive, and professional.“

### "Certainty Software"

July 13, 2022

5.0

Very good, i know it has way more capabilities than what we use it for and we are slowly expanding into them.

Pros

I can customize whatever I want and the \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] keeps in regular contact.

Cons

When setting up new sites, jobs, users. If you don't do it all the time its hard to remember how and it's not blatantly obvious.

Reason for choosing Certainty Software

There was no cap on monthly audits and the price and it had more features.

### "Certainty Software review"

July 24, 2022

4.0

Upgrades and changes are a cause of concern. Almost every time the company has upgraded or made changes it has cause me to have to contact Certainty to make repairs to the system. Customer support is slow. There have been several times where I have had to wait several days for a response to a question. They usually get any issues repaired but it does impact my time in reviewing checklist.

Pros

When we started with Certainty, they were a start up company that allowed us to work with them and modify to fit my needs. Overtime I have developed a very good relation with the company and the value we get out of the product vs. the cost is an exceptional.

Cons

The product has many features we don't use. It provides feedback tools we would use if we used this to manage our system. Saving custom reports is not always functional. There are times when trying to save a custom report for a specific time range the report will not save. Some times it takes several attempts to save a report. Scanned reports are sometimes an issue. The que will jam up and unless you are aware that you are awaiting for checklist to be entered into the database you can lose some data.

Reason for choosing Certainty Software

As a startup at the time of purchase the price point for the services provided and they were willing to match their product to the services I needed at the time. Most other products were inflexible in modifying their system to allow me to do what we wanted to do with our data.

### "Pricey But Powerful!"

August 30, 2018

5.0

Pros

An amazing thing regarding Checkit is its portability, the possibility of bringing it anywhere as it is available in mobile. Photo reports are possible, audit management, defect tracking and other useful features. Checkit allowed our team to create a complete report regarding our products upon arrival until deployment.

Cons

It is somehow pricey but price is justifiable by the fact that it has many features than what is needed in our department.

### "Rely on Check It for all our Quality Data and more..."

September 25, 2020

5.0

With the complexity and diversity of product categories and processes, I don't see how we could have been managing this if we had not implemented Check It back in 2018.

Pros

Check It has allowed us to manage in real time a picture of our quality, it has also helped us manage better and more efficiently our QA resources. The notification feature is a huge plus and advantage that informs management when things and getting out of control.

Cons

We do not have any cons of this software, every need for additional filtering of our data and customization has been done by their support team.

### "Certainty - Great Software!"

August 24, 2020

4.0

Our overall experience has been great! We are most excited about the business intellgilence components of the software once all our locations are on board. This will allow us track key areas to focus our energy on. The users have benefited greatly from shifting from a paper based inspection. All around it has been a great change to how our business operates!

Pros

The software was easy to configure with the help of the staff. The feedback from the end users was great. Easy to use and great features they previously did not have access to when completing an inspection. From an admin standpoint it is easy to assist and set up users. The analytics of the software are beneficial for future focuses and initiatives for health and safety in the organization.

Cons

There has been a quick turnaround with some suggestions being brought forward. Other suggestions are already in the works to better improve the use of the software for all those involved.

Reason for choosing Certainty Software

I was not involved in the decision to select this software

### "Certainty Software"

September 25, 2020

4.0

Great customer service, easy to use, professional appearance, and best of all... It grows with our companies needs!!!

Pros

After using Certainty for a few years, I still find myself learning new functions about it which I really like. I like seeing that the software is still evolving and growing to suit customer needs. The customer service is great and they are very attentive to the our goals and needs!!

Cons

I find the Business Intelligence portion of Certainty very intimidating but that being said, if I spent more time in it (or watched the tutorials) I feel that I might be more comfortable using it. We found a few areas that we are slightly ahead of the functionality of the software but in those circumstances, Certainty has offered alternative methods that provide us with an interim solution.

Hi Jesse, Thanks for your review, much appreciated. Would love to connect to show you how you can use checklist workflows as a tool for the enforcement of checklists and we have added a lot of functionality to the checklist builder and actions tool which might help with details for prevention.

March 22, 2018

5.0

It met my needs for data entry, obtaining data results for analysis, and helping me paint a picture of project information.

Pros

Being able to enter data in the software from multiple formats is a plus. I also like how easy it is to get reports from the program.

Cons

Haven't experienced any adversity as of yet however there are parts of the software that could be a bit more intuitive.

### "Highly customizable, great support team, helps manage our complex audit process."

September 15, 2023

4.0

Certainty has allowed us to modernize our audit process and make it scalable as we are a growing organization. Our audits generally cover 400+ questions and can result in 50-100 actions, and we do approximately 75 audits per our 6-month cycle. Certainty has allowed us to make this manageable. The features of the checklist builder have made it a much smoother experience for the auditor. The tooltips and conditional questions help the auditor review each area as intended, takes out the guess work, and removes some of the mental burden on the auditor from having to remember to check a second area based on the findings of the first, given that conditional questions shoulder that burden. As mentioned, the Certainty Support team is very quick, responsive, and professional. They investigate issues quickly and communicate with us along the way to the fix. Certainty has been adding features over time and I'm interested in seeing how the app grows and improves. The mobile app has been crucial to making our complex audit process work. The OData feed is a great feature to allow for advanced analytics and reporting.

Pros

The checklist builder is highly customizable and allows us to use relatively complex logic to help manage our complex audit process. We moved from a paper-based process to Certainty Software and have drastically cut down the time it takes to edit and finalize our audit documents and get them to our management teams. The OData feed that is offered has allowed us to do our own custom reporting which has been helpful to spot issues that would otherwise not be visible.

Cons

We have run into some bugs along the way, but I believe that is due in part to the fact that we are likely using the software in a different capacity than most other organizations. The Certainty Support team is highly quick and responsive though, we've been very happy to work with them. Some of the features such as scheduling, and workflows can be a bit tricky to learn and/or don't quite meet our needs so we haven't taken advantage of them as much as we'd like to. Certainty does provide a few tutorial guides and some videos on their YouTube channel but still, sometimes these features do not produce the expected result.

### "Certainty Review"

September 15, 2023

4.0

Using this software we've been able to identify areas of opportunity around our behaviors as well as the hazards in our workspace. We've seen an increase in hazard identification and remediation of hazards since using this tool.

Pros

The user interface is easy to use and navigate, it's very user friendly and takes very little training for our users to understand. The checklist building tool is highly flexible and allows us to create all the forms we need while keeping them as simple as possible by using the conditional features available in the tool.

Cons

The reporting options are a bit hard coded and inflexible at times.

### "Certainty software"

September 15, 2023

4.0

Using the certainty and recording the real time inspection data giving confidence to the management & auditor about inspection process and data. Initially we started with inspection later we develop all the Maintenace check list and started using across all areas.

Pros

I like the certainty software because of the below feature 1. Real time data entry and there is no manipulation of data.2. Different type of Data analysis,3. Like Business intelligence reports will be very useful transferring all the data in to the graphical4. Capturing the image, 5. Retrieve the data in case of the complaints with evidence of the picture and share to customer.

Cons

Can be improved. 1. Requires some training to develop the program for the check list 2. Can this will be monitoring plan vs Actual

The support and software have been a foundational element of our HSE Management System. We would not have been as successful without the software!

Pros

The data analytics were outstanding for our organization. The ease of entry for data, the versatility of reporting and the ability to update were great functions for an organization our size.

### "Digitizing our audit process"

September 15, 2023

5.0

Pros

We started using this software to take our audit process from a paper spreadsheet to a digital platform. We were able to completely customize a checklist to meet our unique needs. Once we set up our checklist, it was fairly easy to navigate through it for our use of it.The mobile app and ability to save as you go, is crucial. We have an long, extensive checklist with many mandatory questions built in, so the ability to save, even if some questions haven't been completed yet, was a fantastic update to the software. I also like the ease of adding measurable actions to any questions as well as pictures.Customer Support has been top notch. We found some bugs and quirks along the way, but the Customer Support team was generally quickly responded and we often saw fixes for those issues in updates. Updates tend to happen every 4-6 weeks, so they are also improving their software. If we ran into a larger issue, the team was fast to pull together a quick meeting to discuss it virtually.The Certainty Dashboard has some standards reports it can graph, which can provide quick snapshots of certain data. They also have a generic Power BI page that gives more in-depth information about the audit data.

Cons

As I think we use the product a bit differently than others, it was a bit of a learning curve to tailor the tool to meet our needs, but was able to figure it out over time and adapt it. While Certainty has reporting ability including custom reports available, we discovered we needed to make our own Action report to meet our needs. While they do have Power BI and dashboard available, they are presented off pre-set information so that can be limiting depending on what data points you are looking at.
