"Helpful Dashboard and Reports for Clear Supply Chain Visibility"
4/5
What do you like best about Sedex?

The dashboard and report downloads are helpful, and they make it easier for me to keep a clear grasp of our supply chain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sedex?

Sometimes there are glitches. For example, you can see that a supplier has SMETA in one place, but in another section it doesn’t show up. It’s also not integrated with our ERP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Letizia La Sorte of Sedex

Thank you for your feedback. We're happy to hear that our dashboards and reports are helping you gain clearer visibility across your supply chain.

We're sorry to hear about the issues you've experienced. We are not currently aware of any ongoing SMETA visibility discrepancies, but we have shared your comments with our Product team for investigation as we are committed to delivering a seamless and easy-to-use platform experience.

Sedex also provides API capabilities that can support integration with existing business systems, helping organisations incorporate Sedex data into their broader supply chain and risk management workflows.

Thank you for helping us improve the platform.

"Visibility"
4/5
What do you like best about Sedex?

the visibility via SAQ on your supply chain Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sedex?

that suppliers may have a score even not having answering the SAQ at 100% Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Letizia La Sorte of Sedex

Hello Valerie,

Thank you for your feedback, it’s great to hear that Sedex gives you greater visibility across your supply chain through SAQ data.

Your point about some suppliers still receiving a score even when the SAQ is not fully completed is helpful, and we understand how important it is for scoring to reflect the level of completion accurately.

Even when Sedex is not yet solving a specific challenge in your supply chain, it’s useful to know that it is still providing insight and helping you monitor things more closely.

Thanks again for sharing your perspective and for being part of the Sedex Community.

"User-Friendly Audits in One Place, but Risk Assessment Outputs Need Improvement"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Sedex?

I like how all audits are organised in one place and you can access site audits easily and analyse findings. the SAQ is easier to use. overall it is user friendly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sedex?

the outputs aren't great for risk assessments i think more could be done in terms of risk assessing factories. I think there needs to be more interactive features on the pre- assessment section. Its unfortunate that radar disappeared Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Letizia La Sorte of Sedex

Thank you for your feedback!

We're glad to hear that you value the pre-assessment tool and see the potential for Sedex to support collaboration and information sharing across supplier networks.

3/5
What do you like best about Sedex?

Very good insights and comprehensive audit process Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This breadth is designed to help organisations stay aligned with emerging supply chain challenges and support more effective due diligence.

We also appreciate your feedback on platform usability and have shared it with our Product team as we continue to improve the user experience.

Thank you again!
