Results

Secfix transformed document management and audit confidence for MaD

Angelika Brunner-Zorez, COO at MaD, shared, “Before we started using Secfix, we had a lot of trouble manually tracking and organizing our compliance documents. It took a lot of time and often led to mistakes. Secfix helped us by putting all our documents in one place, tracking any changes, and keeping a clear record of everything. For example, during a recent internal audit, we were able to quickly find and show the necessary documents using Secfix's audit trail feature, which helped us prove our compliance easily and accurately. This saved us a lot of time and made us more confident during the audit.”

I strongly recommend Secfix to any organization that wants to simplify their compliance management and stick to standards. Secfix’s easy-to-use interface, strong documentation management, and helpful reporting features have been key to our successful ISO certification. For any company looking to improve their compliance efforts and see real results, Secfix is a must-have tool.
