## Greenlight Guru

- Overall score: 7.4 out of 10 (#3 of 18 systems tested)
- Price: from $12k/yr (Vendor-published entry price for eQMS packages (Sep 2026); users and modules at that price not stated. Implementation is priced separately. Buyers report $21k–55k/yr (Vendr) and about $30k in year one for a 40-person team (2025).)
- Best for: You build a medical device, want design controls, ISO 14971 risk and quality events linked in one MedTech-only system, and can budget well above the entry price.
- Watch out: Users report the bill growing quickly as the team grows, and implementation is charged on top of the subscription.
