Sedex Reviews & Product Details

Sedex is a responsible sourcing and supply chain due diligence platform that helps organisations identify, assess, and manage ethical, social, and environmental risks across their global supply chains. Sedex is used by procurement, sustainability, compliance, and supply chain teams to collect, analyse, and share supplier data related to responsible business practices. It provides a centralised way to gain visibility across complex supply networks and supports organisations in meeting due diligence, reporting, and responsible sourcing requirements. For buying organisations, Sedex helps improve oversight and reduce risk by bringing supplier data into one platform. Teams can identify potential issues, prioritise actions, and monitor progress across regions and supplier groups. This supports more informed decision-making and better collaboration between procurement, sustainability, compliance, and operations teams. Sedex is also designed to be practical and usable for suppliers and site-level teams responsible for completing assessments, managing audits, and responding to customer requirements. The platform provides clear guidance on what information is needed and helps reduce duplication when suppliers work with multiple buyers. Suppliers can use Sedex to share information in a structured way, manage audits and corrective actions, and reduce time spent on manual reporting. This improves transparency and communication while allowing suppliers to focus more on continuous improvement. Sedex supports responsible sourcing and supply chain due diligence through capabilities such as supplier self-assessment questionnaires, audit and corrective action management, risk assessment and prioritisation tools, reporting and dashboards, and secure data sharing between buying and supplying organisations. By connecting buyers and suppliers on a shared platform, Sedex supports collaboration, transparency, and continuous improvement across global supply chains, helping organisations manage risk and support responsible business practices at scale.

"Essential for Human Rights Risk Management"

5/5

What do you like best about Sedex?

I love working with the Sedex team and the community more broadly. They do a really great job ensuring collaboration is part of their business model, which really resonates with me as a human rights professional. I really enjoy the tech advances that Sedex has made; it's years ahead of where it was just a little while ago, and I'm very happy to see that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sedex?

I think there are certain findings that are really difficult to address in our own operations when we consider the regional context. The rating system sometimes doesn't capture that to its fullest extent. We could really benefit from more data, particularly from an inherent risk perspective. There's a lot of data around findings and settings, and I think Sedex could do something really intelligent with that to demonstrate the inherent risk for a country, service, or commodity combination.

Hello Alison,

Thank you for sharing such thoughtful feedback, we’re really pleased to hear that you value the Sedex team and community, and that the platform’s progress is making a difference in your work.

We also appreciate your perspective on the rating system and the need for more context around findings, especially when regional realities can make risk look different in practice. Your point about having more data to better reflect inherent risk is especially useful and we are looking into that.

It’s great to know Sedex is helping you monitor human rights risks, support due diligence, and standardise audit practices across your supply chain.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience and for being part of the Sedex community.

"Streamlined Supplier Management with Improvement Opportunities"

4/5

What do you like best about Sedex?

I like the support and community events provided by Sedex. I also appreciate their continuous improvement mindset. I am happy with some of the changes being made, and I appreciate that they continue to improve the search functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sedex?

I still find it to be challenging to link to suppliers, especially if there has been a purchase or a transition to a corporate wide account. There are times where I see multiple entries with the same physical address and I am concerned I am not selecting the correct ones. I also wish there was a way to know if a supplier was going to request a NDA to connect with them. I could then begin the process of obtaining the NDA with them to connect. It is still hard to see metrics of my suppliers at large in the dashboard and clicking through the data can be clunky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hello Chelsea,

Thanks for sharing this feedback. We’re glad to hear that Sedex is helping you review and manage risk without placing extra burden on suppliers, and that it supports your supplier vetting, audit monitoring, and regulatory research. We also appreciate your positive comments on our support, community events, and continuous improvement mindset. At the same time, we understand there is still room to improve the supplier linking and search experience, particularly where it would be helpful to make supplier identification easier. We also appreciate your comments on the dashboard, and we understand that making it easier to navigate and view supplier metrics at a glance would improve the experience. We’ve shared this feedback with our product team and will keep you updated on changes.

Thank you for being part of the Sedex Community!

"Streamlined Ethical Trade Compliance with Stellar Support"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Sedex?

I like Sedex's ease of use from a supplier perspective and the fact that it caters to multiple customers, making it efficient for suppliers. I also find the Sedex teams incredibly helpful, especially in relation to navigating missing data and understanding and interpreting risk management data that's coming through. This means from a supplier perspective, they deliver one due diligence process and don't have to do that over multiple platforms, which is efficient. For us, Sedex provides ease of visibility in terms of the information that's broken down into key components, and we can feed that into our own internal management matrix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sedex?

I have a real challenge with contacts data and making sure we have the right contact within a business. It's incredibly challenging to engage and onboard a suppliers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sedex solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sedex provides a global platform for due diligence, making it efficient for suppliers to use one platform across customers. It simplifies embedding and elevating ethical trade policies, offering ease of use, helpful teams for navigating data, and visibility into key components for internal processes.

"Clear, Improved Sedex UI—But SAQ Question Logic Can Be Tricky"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Sedex?

Since Sedex changed the UI, it has improved drastically. I am a big fan of the changes and the dashboarding. It provides a very clear understanding of our network and the associated risks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sedex?

We've found it quite difficult in answering some of the SAQs, when one question unlocks another. For example, if we want to answer the 2nd part of a question, but not the first part. We are unable to do so, this is clear when exporting the SAQ in Excel but then the question doesn't appear when completing the questionnaire online.

Additionally, we find that the Sedex SAQ is the answer to some of our issues we're facing with ESG/Sustainability compliance, however Sedex could be further refined to assist in much more detail such as EUDR.

Sedex doesn't offer SSO as standard, there is an additional cost to complete SSO integrations with our business which doesn't make sense to me. SSO/2FA should be standard practice across the board for Technology systems these days. There are no other vendors that I can think of that charge for this service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Letizia La Sorte of Sedex

edit

Thank you for the detailed feedback and the kind words on our UI improvements - we’re thrilled the dashboard is providing clearer visibility into your network and risks.

We appreciate the insight into SAQ trigger questions. They’re designed to show only when relevant, keeping the form efficient, but we recognize the logic can sometimes feel tricky, especially if a follow-up question doesn’t align perfectly with your scenario. We’d love specific examples of the trigger questions that were confusing, as that helps us refine the experience for cases like yours.

On SSO, we understand the desire for it to be standard, we’re exploring ways to make integrations more seamless and value-driven across the board!

Your point about comprehensive risk views for regulations like EUDR is spot on, and it’s great to hear Sedex is helping tackle those internal challenges.

Thanks again for helping us improve, we value reviews like yours and look forward to continuing to support your ESG goals

"Large Supplier Network and Strong Risk Insights with SEDEX"

4/5

What do you like best about Sedex?

SEDEX has a large supplier database, and many of our suppliers are already on the platform. Several of our customers also use SEDEX and want to link to us, as well as to our suppliers. It’s a good tool for evaluating supplier development needs based on combined risk scores and audit findings. I would also like to have an audit history view, with historical data from previous audits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sedex?

I can’t actually use multi-tier audits. Because of this, the supply chain map isn’t clear, since it’s impossible to see which supplier is connected to which sub-supplier. Also, searching by name can be difficult if you don’t know the exact site name or the company number. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sedex solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sedex enables us to view and evaluate our suppliers’ sustainability performance, and it makes it clear which suppliers and which areas need improvement. It also helps us track their continuous improvement efforts over time. The SMETA audit report and CAP provide useful input on what we should focus on during our own audits, which helps us reduce the time we spend on them. Previously, we spent much more time on supplier audits; now we can concentrate mainly on the problematic areas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User-Friendly Platform for Sharing Data and Supply Chain Reporting"

5/5

What do you like best about Sedex?

It is a widely used platform that is very user friendly, enabling you to share data with suppliers and customers alike. You can run generic and specific reports which help you assess your supply chain. It demonstrates that you and your suppliers have certain values regarding ethical, social and health and safety practices Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sedex?

You are not able to see who the link request email goes to which is often asked Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you Viv for the great feedback on how Sedex enables supply chain data sharing and ethical assessments!

We're glad the platform makes it easy to manage supplier social, health and safety requirements and share customer info. Your note about request emails is helpful - we'll review how we can make this process clearer.

"Efficient Supplier Risk Management with Sedex"

4/5

What do you like best about Sedex?

I like the mass assessment feature of RADAR and how the audit findings are listed separately on the Sedex platform in an easy-to-view way, so I don't have to go through lengthy audit reports to find the important information. These features save me time. Also, the initial setup of Sedex was pretty easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sedex?

I would like to be able to share suppliers' SAQ/audit results with customers without revealing the suppliers' identity. Either through an 'anonymous' direct link or having a reporting feature that downloads site overview with supplier ID and other specific information removed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hello Dora,

Thank you for sharing your feedback, we’re happy to hear that Sedex Risk Assessment is helping you manage supplier risk more efficiently and saving you time by bringing audit findings together in a clear, easy-to-review way.

It’s also great to know the platform was straightforward to set up and that it helps you manage third-party audits more effectively. We hear you on wanting to share supplier SAQ or audit results with customers while protecting supplier identity, that’s helpful feedback and something we’ll keep in mind.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience. We’re pleased Sedex is supporting your due diligence processes and making supplier risk management easier.

"Sedex Simplifies Audit Follow-Ups and SAQ Tracking"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Sedex?

I like that Sedex provides a structured way to access supplier information, audits and findings, and that it gives a transparent overview of risk areas across our supply chain. The platform makes it easier to gather the documentation we need and keep everything in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sedex?

I sometimes find it challenging to follow up SAQs and see what improvements have actually happened year by year. When suppliers update their SAQ because of only a very small change, it can become misleading when "last updated" date changes. I also dislike that non‑closed findings remain open when an audit company changes. It would be helpful if the new auditor could confirm whether previous findings are still valid or closed, instead of having findings shown as ‘Open’ for several years even when later audits are compliant. In some cases, findings have even been carried over when a supplier switches back to a former audit company, which makes the overview less accurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sedex solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sedex helps centralize supplier information, audits and findings in one system, which saves time and gives a structured and transparent overview of risk areas in the supply chain. It also solves the challenge of accessing comparable data across suppliers, making it easier to prioritise follow‑up and ensure compliance. Having all audit reports and SAQs in one place gives a clearer picture of performance and development over time, even though some functionalities could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Letizia La Sorte of Sedex

edit

Thank you for sharing your experience with Sedex!

We’re happy to hear that centralising supplier information, audits, and findings in one place has made audit follow-ups and SAQ tracking easier. Your feedback on the structured, time-based overview of audit data across suppliers is especially encouraging, this is the type of value we aim to provide.

We also appreciate your constructive comments about gaining better visibility into supplier updates and changes to SAQs over time. Feedback like yours helps us understand where we can continue to improve the experience for members managing supplier compliance.

Thank you again for taking the time to leave such a detailed and thoughtful review.
