## Gembadocs Reviews
  ### 1. Great Quality, Frequent Improvements

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nik B. | President/Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 20, 2024

**What do you like best about Gembadocs?**

Anyone can use it, you don't need extensive training. The SOPs are very clear for the end user with the notations that can be added while making an SOP.
Its so easy to use that you actually bother to make SOPs

**What do you dislike about Gembadocs?**

It's excellent so I can't think of too much that I dislike. Better than anything else I've used!

**What problems is Gembadocs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Easy to make SOPs.

  ### 2. #1 Software for Building a Lean Culture

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Steven P. | Engineering Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 20, 2024

**What do you like best about Gembadocs?**

The ease of use. I generally tell people making a standard with GembaDocs is only anywhere from 1 to 10 minutes longer than it takes to actually execute the process (depending on how many process steps there are of course).  The biggest hindrance, in my opinion, to you building the team you want is both you and your team's lack of understanding and discipline around standards and their importance.  There's no better tool for reaching that required level of discipline and understanding of standards than GembaDocs.

**What do you dislike about Gembadocs?**

Speaking candidly, 1 minor feedback item I have is that when a standard is already made, every new step I add (after saving) prompts an option to increment the rev and document the reason for the change. Although both of those items are important, I think having to acknowledge them that often can be improved.  Possibly, there could  be 2 options for update down on the bottom of the screen where "UPDATE" usually is.  Option 1: Update without incrementing rev or documenting a change log entry.  Option 2: Update WITH incrementing rev or documenting a change log entry.  
The best thing about GembaDocs, however, might be that this type of feedback is sought after and executed upon frequently by the founder and development team.  Can't say enough great things about this product.

**What problems is Gembadocs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is solving the #1 problem that most companies suffer from.....Lack of Understanding and Discipline around Standards.  Standards serve 2 purposes: 1) Creating a baseline to measure improvement from and 2) Making it easier and faster to detect when an abnormality, or problem, has occurred. Once you understand that, the biggest hindrance to the ultimate condition you will seek to achieve is simply the barrier to entry with creating/documenting the standards you informally have.  We're at over 500 standards in GembaDocs as of last week, and the growth and maturity of our company and team members since we started using it are astonishing.

  ### 3. Great SOPs, Kanbans and Checklists

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Joe D. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 17, 2024

**What do you like best about Gembadocs?**

Gembadocs has helped me create quick and easy SOPs which helps me to keep standards tight and effective on the processes which I complete in my day-to-day tasks, it also has made a great improvement to the Kanban system which we use, which helps us to keep on top of stock and keep our business LEAN

**What do you dislike about Gembadocs?**

The only downside I find with gembadocs is the inability to sort the SOPs by title, however I know that this is a feature that is hopefully going to be rolled out in the near future and I am looking forward to this update.

**What problems is Gembadocs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Gembadocs has greatly improved the standard of work within the company, ensuring that every step of every process is carried out the same way every time by every operator

  ### 4. Gembadocs is a game changer!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ciara C. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 18, 2024

**What do you like best about Gembadocs?**

Gembadocs removes all the struggle from putting together good standard operating procedures. For a long time I avoided doing SOP's as it was so time consuming to put them together and edit them. Now with Gembadocs it's so easy! It takes away all the hard work making it very manageable. You can take the photos and generate the SOP on your phone or use a PC, whichever is easier. Definitely a game changer for anyone in a role who needs to create good, standardised processes.

**What do you dislike about Gembadocs?**

Only downside is I didnt have it years ago! 😊

**What problems is Gembadocs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Gembadocs is allowing us to bring clarity around our processes to our staff. It allows us to generate SOP's quickly and they are easy to update as our business evolves

  ### 5. Gembadocs is a gamechanger process builder for your business!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ryan L. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 03, 2024

**What do you like best about Gembadocs?**

The ease at which we can create a very clear standard operating procedure.  We're also very impressed with how easy it is to change and update processes.  In an ever evolving business landscape, change is fast.  Being able to adapt easily with as little struggle as possible is critical.

**What do you dislike about Gembadocs?**

One thing to consider would be the option to remove annotations in a photo for updating purposes rather than having to re-upload a new image and then annotate again.

**What problems is Gembadocs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Clarity for all our company processes.  When you bring things to light nothing is hidden.  It's easy for anyone to take over a process and also removes ambiguity.  Do it one way, the right way.  And update/improve as needed.

  ### 6. GembaDocs in the workplace.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Cathal M. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 18, 2024

**What do you like best about Gembadocs?**

GembaDocs is such a user friendly platform that allows us to create and update SOP's quickly and easily. The ability to use a combination of photos and videos ensures every detail that's needed can be added to the SOP. Then, the accessibility options like QR codes as well as hard copies caters for all operator and/or job preferences.

**What do you dislike about Gembadocs?**

Nothing. So far, we have been able to create and implement all SOP's using GembaDocs without any issues and each update brings more and more to the table.

**What problems is Gembadocs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's allowing us to create a standard for each specific area or task which in turns helps us make the process the expert and reduce the risk of uncontrolled variations.

  ### 7. GembaDocs has been a gamechanger for us!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tom H. | CEO at 3rd Digital, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 01, 2024

**What do you like best about Gembadocs?**

It's the easiest way I have ever come across to create clear SOPs for physical and virtual processes all in one place. The mobile app and PC version mean you can document every process easily, update it just as easily and access them even easier. Our people use it for everything.

**What do you dislike about Gembadocs?**

It can seem easier to use Loom or a video recorder for some computer based processes and whilst it's certainly faster to create the SOP, it's much more difficult for someone to follow a video rather than a step by step SOP. It's also much easier to change / update the step by step. GembaDocs does let you record short 30 second video steps too though.

**What problems is Gembadocs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We wanted to have SOPs for all our critical processes but did not have an appropriate tool to use to implement them properly.

  ### 8. Essential for any business

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** John M. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 19, 2024

**What do you like best about Gembadocs?**

It's simplicity to use is my favourite feature by far. I showed my 10 year old how to use it and she loved making SOP's for bathing the dog.

**What do you dislike about Gembadocs?**

I can't say there is even the slightest thing I don't like about the app, first class all round.

**What problems is Gembadocs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I have return customers that I need to sometimes do the same repair or equipment check more than once, if its a long process and easy to forget it allows me to create a standard op for the process instead of trying to remember what I did 6 months ago, it saved a mountain of time for me.

  ### 9. SOP Magic

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Hugo A. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Gembadocs?**

It's just simplicity, comparing to old way with excel sheets and importing pictures into document and then after being finished you realize you have to do it once again since on the shop floor situation is completely different...SOP is now child's play and the most important thing people on the shop floor can make it by themselves for them and finally use it. I just love it!

**What do you dislike about Gembadocs?**

Can't think of anything. What we're using it for it is just a really great tool.

**What problems is Gembadocs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

How to easily explain any procedure for anything with photos, few words or videos...

  ### 10. Using Gemba Docs Everyday!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Michael V. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 26, 2024

**What do you like best about Gembadocs?**

It's so easy to use, multiple tools that we use everyday. Kanban cards are easy to input and then print into so many usable formats. SOP have been designed so we can make them more towards pictures or wording or both.  Being able to add videos to an SOP is very valuable.

**What do you dislike about Gembadocs?**

It was that you couldn't change colours but the Gemba doc team changed that now we can colour code for departments!

**What problems is Gembadocs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps create standards to keep our products Uniform

The capability of using GembaDocs on either a mobile device or PC allows you to have all your standard ops at your fingertips, allowing the answer to be where the question is.  The GembaDocs team utilizes customer feedback to implement changes and elevate their product, a testament to their own continuous improvement journey.

I don't dislike anything at this moment.

**What problems is Gembadocs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

**Reviewed Date:** April 17, 2024

GembaDocs is truly the best way in the world for creating standard operating procedures. Could you put a value on cloning yourself? GembaDocs are placed all around my business so I don't have to be there.

Nothing. It truly gets better every month!
