EQS Integrity Line vs EthicsGlobal CaseManager

EQS Integrity Line is whistleblowing software for employees and third parties to report wrongdoing within an organisation. Reports can be anonymous, and a secure mailbox lets the reporter continue a conversation without disclosing their identity. Case management includes configurable authorisations, access controls and revision logs. The system supports over 80 languages and can automatically translate cases and dialogue. Compliance teams can use dashboards, charts, real-time analysis, search and filters, and download cases in Excel format. Organisations can combine reports from letters, email, phone calls and meetings; a telephone channel is available for Enterprise. EQS says the service is hosted in Germany and uses ISO 27001-certified data centres, encryption, two-factor authentication and regular external security audits. Essential costs £85 a month, while Professional costs £170 a month. A seven-day free trial of Essential begins after the demo system is set up. The product is available on Android, iOS and web.
