Published capabilities and what to verify
Sources reviewed September 6, 2026. These are published descriptions, not independent product tests or an exhaustive feature matrix. Confirm current packaging, integration scope and commercial terms directly with each vendor.
| Platform | Published scope | Evaluation question |
|---|---|---|
| Simplifi 797 | Wolters Kluwer’s FAQ describes recurring tasks, staff training and competencies, reports and Sonicu environmental monitoring integration. | Which training content, monitoring components and implementation services are included in the proposed package? |
| PharmacyStars / Compounding360 | Sonicu documents a Compounding360 monitoring integration. EQUASHIELD describes QMS, SOP and training capabilities. | How are your monitoring data, controlled procedures and personnel evidence connected in the offered configuration? |
| CompliRx | See our workflow catalog, supported integrations and 90-day pilot terms. | Can your team complete and retrieve a representative record with its review history, exceptions and supporting evidence? |
Use the same acceptance criteria for every vendor
- Trace an out-of-range result through acknowledgment, investigation, disposition and any linked CAPA.
- Retrieve an employee’s competency evidence and the SOP version used when training occurred.
- Test exports, historical record access and migration reconciliation before retiring the previous system.
- Request a written quote separating subscription, devices, integrations, implementation, training and renewal terms.
Use the electronic-record review checklist to assess applicable controls. Published features and a successful demo do not replace your intended-use validation.
Why CompliRx
One operational record from daily task to inspection evidence
The strongest compliance system is not the one with the longest feature list. It is the one your staff can execute correctly, your designated person can oversee, and your pharmacy can explain under inspection.
Personnel qualification
Track role-based training, garbing, gloved-fingertip sampling, media fills, competencies, credentials, due dates, and supporting evidence.
Daily compliance work
Turn recurring cleaning, monitoring, review, and follow-through into attributable work that opens directly to the record requiring action.
Quality and CAPA
Preserve the connection from a failed result or excursion through investigation, corrective action, ownership, effectiveness review, and closure.
Inspection retrieval
Move from a dashboard indicator to the underlying record, signature, attachment, history, and export without reconstructing the story from separate systems.
A safer evaluation
Prove the platform with your own facility
A sales demonstration cannot prove whether a platform fits your rooms, people, schedules, sampling plan, or inspection requests. The CompliRx pilot is structured around real workflows and measurable retrieval.
Map the facility
Configure rooms, classifications, pressure relationships, equipment, personnel, and the monitoring program around the way the pharmacy actually operates.
Bring forward current records
Identify controlled documents, active qualifications, equipment evidence, open deviations, sampling plans, and recurring work that must remain current.
Run real workflows
Use the pilot for actual daily logs, environmental monitoring, sampling, review, and retrieval instead of judging fit from a canned demonstration.
Test evidence retrieval
Select representative requests and verify that staff can retrieve the source record, attribution, review, attachments, and follow-through quickly.
What to require from your next compliance platform
Every alert opens the exact record requiring action
Personal work stays separate from administrative oversight
Facility data remains isolated by tenant and location
Electronic attribution and review history remain visible
Sampling supports in-house and outsourced execution
Sensor outages have controlled manual backup workflows
Failed results remain connected to investigation and CAPA
Inspection exports trace back to source evidence
Frequently asked questions
What is a practical alternative to Simplifi 797 or PharmacyStars?
CompliRx is purpose-built compliance operations software for 503A and 503B compounding pharmacies evaluating an alternative to Simplifi 797 or PharmacyStars. It connects environmental monitoring, cleaning, personnel qualification, controlled documents, equipment, CAPA, and inspection preparation in one facility record.
Who is CompliRx designed for?
CompliRx is designed for compounding pharmacy owners, designated persons, pharmacists, technicians, and quality teams that want to operate their own compliance program with clearer daily work and faster evidence retrieval.
What does the CompliRx pilot include?
The limited 90-day pilot is $399 per month and includes platform access, guided facility configuration, workflow review, and direct implementation support. Pilot scope and terms are confirmed before activation.
Can CompliRx replace spreadsheets and paper logs?
CompliRx can digitize recurring work, readings, sampling records, qualifications, approvals, and linked evidence. A pharmacy should validate its configured workflows and migration plan before retiring controlled paper or spreadsheet processes.
Does CompliRx guarantee USP compliance?
No software guarantees compliance. CompliRx supports consistent execution, attribution, oversight, investigation, and inspection readiness while the pharmacy remains responsible for professional decisions, policies, validation, and applicable requirements.
