What customers are saying 

The following verified customer reviews were published on G2, which allows reviewers to remain fully or partially anonymous to encourage honest product feedback. 

Configurability was a big draw for me to Kneat. Being able to replicate paper-based documentation into the modern digital platform made it far easier to transition users, and took away the ‘fear factor’ of making such a change

 Nico V. Engineering Manager 

Kneat has been very helpful in rolling out CSA since we can trace the risks in the RTM as well. I also really appreciate the willingness of Kneat to listen to customers and develop the application based on requested features and functionalities

Sarah R., Quality Validation Lead 

I was initially interested in moving towards a paperless validation system. After getting started with Kneat I came to appreciate the many other benefits of this tool, specifically the traceability and reporting functions which help to establish the roadmap of a product lifecycle.

Why it matters 

Validation remains one of the most demanding and essential processes in life sciences. Kneat Gx digitizes every phase of the validation lifecycle from protocol creation through execution, review, and final reporting – enabling organizations to boost efficiency, minimize compliance risk, and bring products to market faster. 

For a digital validation platform to succeed, it must prioritize user experience and reflect real-world workflows. As one case study customer noted: 

We did a lot of vendor homework before we started the relationship with Kneat. What really was the winning factor with Kneat, is the ease of use and the seamlessness of use. I think users felt that Kneat was really, much more intuitive. We are also trying to look forward to future users of the system – who will want to work with something that looks and feels modern and Kneat provided us with this in addition to all the great capabilities.

That is why Kneat maintains close, ongoing partnerships with customers. Kneat believes the best way to build for customers is to build alongside them. 

This G2 recognition validates the work Kneat customers accomplish every day and shows the success of Kneat’s approach to incorporating customer feedback into the product roadmap.
