Visma Severa
Overview
What type of system is Datakvalitet?
Datakvalitet is a quality and management system (QMS) for managing non-conformities, documents, risk and compliance. It competes with Synergi Life (originally developed by Equinor, with a strong focus on oil and gas), QmPlus and EG Landax — not ERP systems such as SAP or Visma. At its core is a unified system for traceability and compliance across ISO standards, HSE and regulatory requirements.
What type of system is Visma Severa?
Visma Severa is a cloud-based Professional Services Automation (PSA) system for project-based businesses. It combines project management, time tracking, resource planning, sales, invoicing and financial reporting in one platform. It competes with PSA and project management solutions such as Scoro, Productive and Kantata, with a strong focus on managing the full lifecycle from sales to project profitability.

Pros
Clear and simple portal and interconnected modules. During the BRCGS audit, we received feedback from DNV's auditor that the quality system was clear and easy to navigate. The auditor was particularly positive about the fact that it was possible to see all history and logs for everything that had been edited and which users had made the change in the document module. The auditor also commented that the system was good because it was easy to customise for each individual company. She also commented that it was easy to extract reports according to what she asked about during the audit.
"What I like best about the Data Quality and EK system is that it's modular and flexible. We can build up the system according to our needs and adapt it to different disciplines such as ISO, HSE, quality and emergency preparedness.
The solutions are perceived as well thought-out and practical to use. The system is user-friendly and suitably advanced, it has sufficient functionality without being unnecessarily complicated.
The integration with Microsoft Azure means that we have continuous control over user and access management. This is perceived as a safe and very appropriate solution.
The app solution is also a great strength, especially in operations where there is a need for simple registration of deviations and incidents in the field.
In addition, we find the employees in Data Quality to be very helpful and solution-oriented. They are accessible, take issues seriously and contribute constructively when we want customisations or further development.
It's also positive that the solutions are perceived as open and not locked into a rigid structure, which gives us room for manoeuvre to further develop the system over time.
How easy it is for our employees to report their time on different projects
User-friendly, educational, fast navigation, breadth of functionality with everything from sales, invoicing, time reporting, project work. Good variety of reports.
Reviews
Cons
Not relevant, this review concerns feedback from the auditor after the audit.
The help guide and user support within the system can be perceived as somewhat confusing and sometimes inadequate. It's not always easy to find specific explanations or guidance when you get stuck.
At times, the system may require some assistance for customisation, setup and further development. The need for consultancy hours and additional services can become costly over time, especially if you don't have sufficient internal expertise to make adjustments yourself. As a result, the total cost may be higher than initially envisaged.
There is also potential for improvement when it comes to user integration between the main system and the various modules. The transition between system level and module level can at times be perceived as less than seamless.
The difficulties of being a group that has required custom-built solutions
The expense functions are not very well developed e.g. how to enter receipts. I miss more variables or KPI functions in some reports. The appearance of the reports could have been varied with different colours, etc. Error messages can be difficult to understand and can take time to resolve.
