Timeous updates to legislation changes.
Comments: Good. The interface is user friendly and easy to navigate.
Pros:
I am informed of changes to legislation as these changes are made official.
Cons:
Personally, I have given up using the search function. Google has proven more effective in finding specific legislation when I need to need to refer back. For example what is the maximum shelving high that we are allowed to use in the warehouse or how many suspended solids are allowed in the municipal effluent before penalities apply.

Comments: Vert Informative

Hi Noxolo, thank you so much for your fantastic feedback and we are glad that you are enjoying Libryo. Noted re your feedback on weekly reminders for updates - great idea!
Your legal register at the end of your fingertips.
Comments:
Updates on new legislation is delivered straight to your inbox so you stay in the loop.
Audits are a breeze as you have proof that you have an up to date legal register and all documentation can be uploaded for audits.
I can highly recommend Libryo.
Pros:
The program is very user friendly and makes life a lot simpler with regard to legal compliance. Should you ever get stuck or need some explanation of the legal jargon, the program has an online chat feature with success agents to assist you. The Search feature is fantastic as you can drill down in your searches, search for applicable regulations on Environmental or Occupational Health and Safety, or both. Our company is currently in the process of obtaining ISO 14001 and the software has made my life a lot easier in obtaining information. It is also very exiting that the Libryo team is constantly working on improving the software with new features and the regular training sessions are very informative.
Cons:
Feature to upload documents is very helpful but a drawback is that your need to replace the documents once updated. Using hyperlinks would mean that the documents on the systems are current.

Annemarie, thank you for your kind words and feedback. Very, very happy that you are seeing value from Libryo.
Libryo Evaluation
Comments: Lybryo was extremely helpful with the implementation of our ISO 14001 and 45001 Management Systems. It's an easy way for our busy top management team to stay informed with legal and regulatory changes as well as whether other key stake holders in the company get to know the law and their compliance status.
Pros:
The short overview with the option to read the full updates; I'm assured that legal updates are never missed
Cons:
There's no legal updating service for businesses exporting or trading with other international business partners.

Thank you for the great review Alvin. We've also taken note of your updating service comment for future product enhancements.
Still a way to go
Comments:
Tool is good but would require further improvment for application in German (DGUV Regulations, Offshore Wind content, ...)
Not decided yet, whether the combination with ISOMETRIX would be benefitial
Pros:
Collection of Legislation for Germany seems to be pretty comprehensive
Cons:
Binding regulations from German Social Accident Insurance (DGUV) are not included (at least not in the demo) Single pieces of legislation were not to be found via the search function with common names e. g. "Arbeitsschutzgesetz" but are in the system under the official name "Gesetz zur ..." and the Abbreviation ArbSchG. - strange, but happens if you screen official websites without mathching withlocal content

Comments: My experience has only been good so far. The possibilities are good and i just need to tap into the full potential of the software.
Pros:
The search bar and the reminders are good features. Can be used for many different types of highlights and action points. It is also very easy to navigate once you have a understanding of what you are looking for.
