Key differences
Where QFacts gives your team more.
Checklists for the shop floor
Design a checklist once and schedule it. Operators fill it in on a phone or tablet, every answer is checked against its expected result, and QA approves it with a signature.
Start the day you sign up
No implementation project. Invite your team and route your first procedure for approval the same day, with onboarding support included.
Every module in one plan
Document control, training, events, CAPA, change control and checklists are in every subscription, at €57.50 per user per month. No tiers to compare.
Every language your sites speak
English, Dutch, French, German and Spanish, so operators and QA work in their own language on every site.
Pricing compared
First-year cost for a team of 10 users with full access.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Scilife and QFacts?
Both cover document control, training with quizzes, quality events, CAPA and change control with Part 11 signatures. Scilife sells three plans on request, with CAPA, change control and quality events from its Core plan, and onboards customers over a fixed 90 days. QFacts includes every module and recurring operator checklists in one published plan, and your team starts the day it signs up.
How much does Scilife cost?
Scilife doesn’t publish prices: its Essential, Core and Core + tiers are quoted on request, on an annual license. With QFacts, 10 users cost €6,000 per year on annual billing, with every module included.
What are recurring checklists in QFacts?
Line clearances, cleaning records, equipment checks and other routine forms. QA designs a checklist once with an expected result for each item, it starts on a schedule or on demand, and operators fill it in on a computer, tablet or phone. Every answer is marked conforming or non-conforming, and the completed checklist is reviewed and signed in QFacts.
How much does QFacts cost for 10 users?
10 Full Access users on annual billing cost €6,000 per year, which is €50 per user per month. On monthly billing the same team pays €57.50 per user per month. There is no implementation fee, and colleagues who only read documents and complete training use Lite Access at €17.25 per month.
Can we move our documents from Scilife to QFacts?
Yes. Export your documents and records, and our onboarding team helps you import them into QFacts, so your team starts with the procedures it already uses. Onboarding support is included in every subscription.
Can I try QFacts without a sales call?
Yes. Sign up online for a 14-day free trial with every module. No credit card is required, and you can book a demo if you prefer a walkthrough.
Does QFacts support 21 CFR Part 11 and EU GMP Annex 11?
Yes. Every user has a unique account, electronic signatures record their meaning, the audit trail cannot be edited or deleted, and access follows each person’s role. The platform is validated according to GAMP 5 and comes with validation-ready document templates.
What if we need something QFacts does not have yet?
Tell us. Our product team works directly with customers and builds the workflows they ask for, from supplier qualification to audit management, into the same system and the same price.
