Tired of your compliance software fighting you every day?
Another policy needs approval routing across six departments. Someone’s trying to report an ethics issue but your system is too confusing. The sustainability team needs different workflows than the privacy team, but you’re stuck with one-size-fits-none software. Your business relationship assessments are scattered across spreadsheets. Every small change requires an expensive consultant.
Sound familiar? You’re dealing with software built for the 2000s, sold like it’s cutting-edge. And now with recent ownership changes in the compliance software market, you’re also wondering about roadmaps, priorities, and whether your vendor will still care about your success next year.
What You’re Really Paying For
That EUR 25,000 NAVEX contract? It’s just the entry fee. Here’s where your budget actually goes:
Ad-hoc fees every time you need to change a simple form or workflow
Onboarding costs because nobody can figure out how to use the thing without a manual
Translation charges that turn every global initiative into a budget negotiation
Integration bills that make connecting to your HR system feel like rocket science
A Different Approach
One provider for policies and approval management, third-party risk assessments, GDPR requests, and sustainability reporting. Drag-and-drop workflows, ready-made templates, and AI that handles the grunt work – translating policies, routing approvals, flagging risks, and generating reports.
Less clicking between systems. More time for strategy that moves the needle.

Making the Switch (Especially Now)

FAQs
Why should I consider switching from NAVEX to EQS?
The market for compliance software is changing, and so are the vendors. With recent changes in NAVEX’s ownership, many customers are concerned about the future of their compliance program, including changes in product roadmaps, pricing, and support. EQS provides a stable, long-term partner with transparent pricing and a customer-focused innovation strategy, ensuring your compliance program remains a priority. We offer intuitive, AI-powered solutions that simplifies complex compliance tasks without hidden fees or expensive consultants.
What specific features does EQS offer that are better than NAVEX?
While both platforms address compliance, EQS is built on a modern, user-centric approach. Our platform is designed for easy, drag-and-drop workflow customization, eliminating the need for expensive consultants to make simple changes. Our AI capabilities go beyond basic functionality, actively assisting your team with tasks like automated policy translation, risk flagging, and case summaries. We also offer a fully integrated suite for whistleblowing, policy management, and third-party risk – all on one intuitive platform.
Is EQS’s pricing truly transparent?
Yes. Unlike vendors that may use low entry-level pricing and then add on ad-hoc fees for changes, translations, or integrations, EQS offers a straightforward and predictable pricing model. We price our solutions based on the value delivered to your compliance program. We’ll work with you to find a solution that fits your company’s size and needs, with no hidden costs.

What is the impact of NAVEX’s new ownership on its customers?
The recent change in ownership for NAVEX introduces a period of uncertainty. While new ownership often brings new investment, it can also mean a shift in strategic focus, a change in product development priorities, and potential price hikes to meet new financial targets. Many customers worry about the long-term commitment to their specific needs during these transitions. EQS provides a reliable alternative with a clear focus on product innovation and customer success.
