Things to think about before picking a tool

  • What’s your goal? Is it onboarding, compliance, safety, or all of the above?

  • Who’s using it? Office staff? Field workers? Hourly teams?

  • Do you need mobile access? Most companies do.

  • Do you need to report on compliance or audits? If yes, look for systems that support that out of the box.

  • Do you want something simple or something you can customize deeply?

Final note

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. 

Some tools focus on speed. 

Others focus on structure and rules. 

The right tool is the one that fits how your team works and what your industry needs.
