## QT9 QMS

- Overall score: 6.4 out of 10 (#11 of 18 systems tested)
- Price: on request (No public price (Oct 2026). Quoted by concurrent licences, deployment and sites, plus one-time implementation and training fees whose amounts aren't published.)
- Best for: You make physical devices or other regulated products, need nonconformance, supplier and audit control across sites, and want one licence that includes every module.
- Watch out: Prices and the one-time implementation fee aren't published, renewals can rise without a cap, and design controls, risk files and software development have little documented support.

- Best for: You run quality for a larger device, diagnostics or combined device-and-pharma company and want proven complaint, CAPA, eMDR and risk workflows on a validated cloud platform.
- Watch out: Prices and hosting region aren't published, there are no design controls, and the contract renews for 36 months unless you give notice.
