VelocityEHS | EHS Software to Outpace Risk Reviews & Product Details

I like how easy VelocityEHS is to use and that it has minimal technical issues. It’s also great that I don’t have to involve our IT department nearly as much as other departments do with their specific software. The initial setup was fairly straightforward, which saved time and effort. On top of that, the software supports efficient reporting and makes it simple for users to submit reports.

Support is my main issue. When I submit a support request, it takes forever to get a response, and then when I finally do hear back, I don’t have much time to reply before they close the ticket. I’d really like better tracking and more frequent updates so I’m not left guessing about the status. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software has a user friendly interface so navigation is quickly picked up by users trying to use the platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be a little bit of content overload to feel like I am using all available resources that I have access to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’m still learning Velocity EHS. So far, it seems like the software will be beneficial, but I’m still too new to it to provide complete feedback yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Coming in after the system was already set up, it feels overwhelming and hard to fully understand. Since I don’t have any on-site help, I’m teaching myself by working through all of the web-based videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate the update of the SDS. I also like the ease with which one can find the product, as well as the ability to print all of our products, especially the SDS, in our binder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The safety data sheets (SDS) are mainly in English, whereas in Quebec, we are required to have them in French. This is really a big negative point for me. Additionally, the ability to print simple labels on our products is insufficient, and there is a lack of backup phrases, for example. Finally, I had difficulties setting up VelocityEHS, so it wasn't easy for me, even though it might have been a bit easier for other people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are many upsides to utilizing the Velocity EHS Software, with the best being the SDS search and ability to create multiple locations within one another. A request that I believe would help this application better outpace risk would be to implement more in training for general users/ our employees without logins, and more available information on getting this system implemented through the link and QRcode.

Difficult finding certain sds, easy to archive chemicals/ search for archived chemicals/ and trace past SDS histories for chemicals, such as to see SDS changes implemented for a product while it has been on a facilities inventory/ E-binder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how VelocityEHS handles all EHS reporting, including task management throughout our mill locations. The out-of-the-box forms and workflow are great; they work very well with our users. The user-friendliness of VelocityEHS ensures we're getting complete information because users feel comfortable using the system. I also like the support and training provided by the VelocityEHS team. The out-of-the-box reporting is another aspect we appreciate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the mobile friendliness of VelocityEHS could be improved. I prefer not to need to load apps to use the system on mobile phones. I would love to be able to assign global actions, like creating an action for every safety manager at a group of mill locations. The initial setup was complicated and required many workshops and lots of testing since we were part of the first group of customers to launch with the Accelerate platform.

Lots of options for the system, combining labeling and SDS sheets is super helpful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

System can be a little clunky to get used to, it does take some time to learn, limited to what other non manager users can don Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The accessibility to find SDS files from your library and also access them freely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Difficulty in figuring out user management and facility layout editing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the Velocity platform. It’s easy to use, intuitive, and makes it simple to assess employee activities in a consistent way. The layout and workflow make it easy to capture observations, identify gaps, and reinforce best practices without creating extra admin work for leaders or operators. It feels practical for day-to-day use and supports meaningful coaching and continuous improvement rather than just tracking for the sake of tracking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area for improvement would be the ability to group related task steps or activities together instead of having to break everything down into individual videos. Being able to bundle multiple steps into a single task or workflow and assess them as a group would make evaluations more efficient and better reflect how the work is actually performed in the field. This would also streamline reviews, reduce admin time, and make it easier to capture best practices for complete processes rather than isolated steps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Question and answer portion was very informational. I do not currently know a lot about this software but I am always willing to watch training sessions and learn if and what we can use to help improve our processes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Audio was sometimes going in and out and on time there was no audio at all Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
