What differentiates Aligned Elements from other similar products?

Aligned Elements specializes in development and is flexible enough to fit into existing processes with minimal impact. This makes it much easier to integrate than alternative products that insist on making a QMS coup d'état.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Medical device development requires complex relational links to be made between many of the different types of data. This is impossible to do reliably and accurately with discrete documents, but Aligned Elements facilitates and records this traceability, and even tells you when relationships are missing.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The risk management process within Aligned Elements is built upon principles that I don’t like to use.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Involve your design and development personnel in the selection of the software.
