Locally Owned, Owner and Developer-Led Team with Outstanding Support **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gavin S. | Management Systems Consultant / ISO Certification Auditor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 31, 2026 **What do you like best about CertCrowd?** Locally-owned and operated (Brisbane, Australia), locally-based developers, (Brisbane, Australia), good comms and great client-oriented service and support **What do you dislike about CertCrowd?** Being a small to medium-sized business, it doesn't get the kudos or high-profile recognition it merits **What problems is CertCrowd solving and how is that benefiting you?** As an experienced HSEQ / ISO certification auditor and a management systems consultant, the CertCrowd systems building model is beneficial to myself - and my clients - in that it is easy to learn, is versatile, hugely customisable and can grow with a company from whatever stage it is implemented. It can be completely self-built, or built with assistance from a consultant; or it can be handed over as a fully functional turnkey operation. As a partner in the compliance realm, the CertCrowd team understands what businesses - especially SMEs - have to contend and compete with, in the compliance, certification and corporate tiers of business as well as within the economy overall. They offer up a functional business tool that is locally-based, focused on compliance and surety and hallmarked on solid, expedient and effective client service and follow-up. ### 2. Effortless Compliance Management That Delivers Audit Success **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tamika-Lee B. | Quality & Compliance Manager, Professional Training & Coaching, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 04, 2026 **What do you like best about CertCrowd?** how simple and structured it makes compliance. As a Quality & Compliance Manager, having everything in one place like policies, risks, incidents, complaints, actions required and evidence makes day to day compliance far more manageable. The clear workflows, reminders and dashboard ensure nothing gets missed and audit preparation becomes straightforward rather than stressful. The biggest testament to the system is our audit results as we pass every aduit and Cert Crowd plays a mojor role in that success. I genuinely enjoy using the system and would highly recommend it to any organisation looking for a practical, effective compliance management solution. **What do you dislike about CertCrowd?** There isn't anything I dislike about the system, it's been working really well for our needs. **What problems is CertCrowd solving and how is that benefiting you?** Before CertCrowd, our compliance and quality processes were scattered across spreadsheets, email, and shared drives, making evidence collection and audit preparation time-consuming and error prone. CertCrowd solves the core problem of disconnected, manual compliance management by centralising policies, risks, incidents, complaints, actions required, and audit evidence in one structured platform. The benefit for us has been sigificant as we have clear visibility and control over our compliance obligations, automated reminders to keep tasks on track and evidence readily available. As a result, we save time, reduce stress around audits, and consistently pass every audit with confidence. ### 3. Effortless, Affordable, and Intuitive—A Standout Experience with CertCrowd **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Katherine L. | Managing Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2025 **What do you like best about CertCrowd?** CertCrowd is extremely easy to use and offers a high level of configurability. The user interface is regularly updated, making it increasingly intuitive and user-friendly. Since the software is developed in Australia, local support is always available to assist with any problems. I found the free version to be a great introduction, and CertCrowd remains very affordable, with no hidden costs associated with the licenses. **What do you dislike about CertCrowd?** CertCrowd is actually a very powerful software, so there are many ways to tackle work flow and solve problems and finding the best way to set up a process takes a bit of trial and error. Like all software, there is a learning curve in getting to know the system and navigate the interface. **What problems is CertCrowd solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am managing multiple compliance obligations with my certification body, and I have a system set up for this. I am also creating a workflow to manage and schedule audits and audit reporting ### 4. Easy-to-use and intuitive system **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Carolynn M. | Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 25, 2025 **What do you like best about CertCrowd?** I've been using this compliance software for a while now, and it has quickly become an essential part of how we manage our and our clients compliance requirements. What stands out most is how easy-to-use and intuitive the platform is. From the initial setup to daily use, the interface is clear, well-organised, and doesn’t require any special training to navigate. The software takes what can often be a paper-heavy and complex process and turns it into something streamlined and manageable. Whether we're tracking actions, managing documents, or conducting audits, everything is right where it should be. It’s clear the developers understand what users actually need — not just a checklist tool, but a practical system that supports real compliance work. It saves time, reduces errors, and gives us peace of mind knowing everything is up to date and easily reportable. Highly recommended for any business looking to simplify compliance without sacrificing control or visibility. **What do you dislike about CertCrowd?** None that we can think of at this stage. **What problems is CertCrowd solving and how is that benefiting you?** Template Management - where we would spend considerable amount of time repeating template creation for our clients, these are pre-set. This means that we can start tailoring documents for our clients early on in the project rather than wasting time setting up the templates like actions, registers, procedures etc. ### 5. The perfect Tool for Compliance **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Scott W. | Infosec Consultant, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 14, 2025 **What do you like best about CertCrowd?** I'm Scott from Wisedot, and as a consultant, I rely on CertCrowd to streamline certificate management for both my own operations and my clients. CertCrowd is user-friendly and quick to set up, allowing me to bypass much of the mundane, repetitive work and focus on developing robust, efficient systems. With its intuitive dashboards, I can view all critical information at a glance and quickly identify any overlooked details. The development team consistently provides excellent support, promptly addressing issues as they arise. Over the past year, I’ve actively collaborated with the CertCrowd team to further enhance the product. Seeing the exciting features planned for 2025 and beyond, I’m genuinely enthusiastic about the future of CertCrowd even in a field like compliance that some might consider less exciting. **What do you dislike about CertCrowd?** Sometimes I get lost in the possibilities of CertCrowd. **What problems is CertCrowd solving and how is that benefiting you?** Certcrowd tackles the complex and error-prone task of certificate management, which can often become a significant bottleneck in ensuring secure and compliant systems. By consolidating all your digital certificates into one centralized platform, it streamlines tracking, monitoring, and renewal processes, thereby mitigating the risk of expired or mismanaged certificates that could lead to outages or security breaches. For me, as a consultant, Certcrowd addresses the challenge of juggling multiple client environments while ensuring that all certificates are up-to-date and compliant with industry standards. Its intuitive dashboards provide a comprehensive, at-a-glance view of the entire certificate lifecycle, enabling quick identification and resolution of issues before they escalate. This not only reduces the manual, repetitive work typically associated with certificate management but also enhances overall operational efficiency and client trust. ### 6.

Great Tool that Support Efficient Certification **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ravi F. | Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 17, 2025 **What do you like best about CertCrowd?** CertCrowd provides a user friendly platform with a baseline that helps an organisation to easily develop a management system that complies with the requirements of various ISO (and other) standards. It helps to remove the complexity and fear around certification. **What do you dislike about CertCrowd?** It is plug and play solution.

Simplifies the Complicated **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Dave J. | Strategy, Quality and Excellence Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 04, 2025 **What do you like best about CertCrowd?** CertCrowd simplifies the implementation of ISO27001 (and other quality/compliance Standards) in any business. As a Consultant, I have seen many businesses struggle with the development and implementation of quality systems and CertCrowd takes away all of the complexity through its seamless layout and home page dashboard. **What do you dislike about CertCrowd?** The system was mostly populated with what the Standard requires when we initially gained access - this gave us an immediate starting point to start applying the system, and ISO27001, to our business. No real negatives to speak of.... **What problems is CertCrowd solving and how is that benefiting you?** As an MSP, our business needs to keep ahead of the threat of cyber and information security issues. Achieving accreditation for ISO27001 was a key aspect of this and CertCrowd was the lynchpin for this. ### 9. A great GRC solution that is easy to get started with **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consulting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 08, 2025 **What do you like best about CertCrowd?** I started my search for GRC solutions and came across a number of different solutions but the freemium model of CertCrowd is what made me first try it out. Being able to quickly get into a demo without a lot of hassle made CertCrowd my first choice to try out. Once I was in, I found the Getting Started steps super helpful in walking me through how to use the software and getting me up and running. I have also found the product to be very well documented which adds to its easy of use. I am using the product to help set up and manage our ISO 9001 QMS. I really like the fact that that CertCrowd breaks down the requirements of ISO 9001 and puts suggestive text in easy to understand language. It also comes with a template QMS manual that helps me get over the "blank page" issue when working to develop our own manual. My team has found this very helpful. I also like the registers feature of the software. This is allowing us to replace all of the Excel files that we have scattered across our files shares and SharePoint. It is great to have a single place to find this data and with the action system, we get reminders when we need to review them! The last thing I want to mention is the support. I have had to email them with a couple of questions and I received my answers quickly. Poor support is a killer for any product that I am looking at. All in all, I have been very happy with our choice of CertCrowd and I look forward to using it more. **What do you dislike about CertCrowd?** The template management is very powerful but the UI can be complicated. I am okay with this because of the power of the template system. **What problems is CertCrowd solving and how is that benefiting you?** CertCrowd is being used by us to develop and manage our QMS. ### 10. I have found CertCrowd to be an essential tool if implementing any ISO **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Manufacturing | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 05, 2025 **What do you like best about CertCrowd?** Given that meeting ISO standards and completing all the required processes and tasks, I have found nothing better on the market that is has the great combination of being so comprehensive yet so flexible at the same time. All of my clients with ISO accreditations use it. Not only does cover the numerous certifications that might have but it has an extremely helpful module that covers the complete ISO requirements making it a none stop shop. With one of my clients interstate I am able to coach them not only online with the system but also what is required on the floor. **What do you dislike about CertCrowd?** Because of its comprehensiveness when sharing access with other stakeholders in the business, it is important that it has the support of upper management and key team leaders. **What problems is CertCrowd solving and how is that benefiting you?** The basic templates ensure that you complete root cause analysis's and if used properly implementing and maintaining ISO accreditation in your business. It can help list your assets, put in place a preventative maintenance program, and make sure you regularly review critical business risks. **Official Response from Paul Lindsay:** > thanks for the feedback - awesome to hear ### 11.

This made our audit process extremely straightforward as finding each part of the standard was quick and easy. **What do you dislike about CertCrowd?** When we first started, over a year ago, there was an annoying bug which took forced you to refresh at a certain point; however, we notified CertCrowd and it was resolved in a matter of days.
