What happened to iQSMS
- Comply365 announced in January 2025 that it was acquiring ASQS, the maker of iQSMS.
- On 27 October 2025 Comply365 renamed iQSMS to SafetyManager365. Documents moved to a separate product, ContentManager365, and training to TrainingManager365, with AI add-ons on top.
- Comply365 already had its own safety system, SafetyNet, and said iQSMS would complement it. Its homepage leads with "50+ airlines".
SafetyManager365 covers safety, risk and audit, supports ECCAIRS 2 formats, has an offline mobile app and single sign-on with multi-factor sign-in. Leon can pre-fill iQSMS reports with flight data. Pricing is by quote. In 2019 ASQS sold iQSMS by module, with unlimited users and no pricing per user.

Side by side
| SafetyManager365 (ex iQSMS) | Folvan | |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | Part of a suite whose homepage leads with airline customers | Non-complex operators (AOC, SPO, NCC), ATOs and DTOs, run by a small team |
| Price | By quote; historically by module, unlimited users | One price per organisation, no per-user fees. Free 30-day pilot |
| Compliance monitoring and audits | Yes | Yes: audit programme and checklists seeded from GM3 ORO.GEN.200(a)(6), ORA.GEN.200 and DTO.GEN.270 |
| Occurrence reporting | Yes, ECCAIRS 2 formats | Yes: crew report from a phone, confidential reports, the 72-hour, 30-day and 3-month clocks, per-country authority profiles |
| E5X file | ECCAIRS 2 reporting listed on its product page | E5X export checked against the official ECCAIRS 5.1.0.0 schema. Some authorities validate a new system's files first; we do that round with you |
| Documents and training | Separate products (ContentManager365, TrainingManager365) | Document register with revisions, review dates and read-and-understood per revision, no file storage yet. No training records (see below) |
| Integrations and SSO | Leon pre-fill, SSO with MFA | Not yet. CSV import and a full data export at any time |
| Mobile | Offline mobile app | Works in any phone browser; no offline app |
When staying makes sense
- It works for you, your team knows it, and the Leon link saves real typing.
- You need offline reporting from aircraft without signal.
- You plan to use the wider Comply365 suite for documents and training anyway.
When Folvan fits better
- You are a small operator or training organisation and want software built for exactly that, not an airline suite.
- You want compliance monitoring, findings and occurrence reporting in one simple place, with the deadlines worked out for you.
- You want one price per organisation, no per-user fees, and to be live in days.
What Folvan does not do yet
No file storage for documents (the register, revisions and read-and-understood are in Folvan, the files are not), no training records, no hazard log or risk register (a free hazard log template covers the gap), no Part-IS module, no offline app and no Leon or FL3XX link yet. If those are must-haves today, say so and we will tell you honestly whether to wait or stay.
How switching works
- Ask for an export of your findings, audits and occurrences as CSV or Excel. Your data is yours.
- We import the findings register and set up your audit programme for your type of organisation.
- Run both side by side during the 30-day pilot. Nothing changes for your crew until you decide.
- Check your contract's notice period before you cancel anything.
