Where Comind.work is different
Dot Compliance is 100% built on Salesforce. Non-Salesforce organizations are buying a QMS plus a platform they don't need. Comind.work has no hidden platform tax.
Dot Compliance's interface inherits Salesforce's complexity. Users unfamiliar with Salesforce report a steep learning curve, crowded screens, and too many clicks. Comind.work is designed for quality professionals, not Salesforce admins.
Dot Compliance has no mobile app. For shop floor or field quality teams, this is a real gap. Comind.work is accessible from any device.
Dot Compliance lacks document confidentiality levels - once a document is approved, it's viewable by anyone. Comind.work supports granular role-based access control.
Being honest
For organizations already on Salesforce, Dot Compliance integrates natively with CRM, Service Cloud, and the entire AppExchange ecosystem. Data flows naturally if you're a Salesforce shop.
Approximately 6,500 detected customers (TheirStack) is the largest among challenger QMS vendors, driven by Salesforce AppExchange distribution and enterprise partnerships.
"Dottie" AI assistant launched April 2023 with $17.5M specifically allocated for AI development. Early mover with a credible generative AI narrative in QMS.
12+ pre-built modules including electronic batch records, clinical/regulatory management, and equipment management. Broad out-of-the-box coverage for larger organizations.
Comind.work gives you a complete QMS in 21 days - no Salesforce dependency, no hidden platform costs.
