Which should you choose?

An honest recommendation

Choose Zutec if…
If you are delivering UK or Irish buildings and the golden thread and Gateway requirements are the thing keeping you up at night, Zutec is built for that regime specifically and IssuesId is not.
Choose IssuesId if…
If you are on Australian projects, the record you need is the defect and QA evidence at practical completion and through the defects liability period, and you want it captured on site rather than assembled afterwards.
Frequently asked
Is IssuesId an alternative to Zutec?
For the snagging and QA inspection side, yes. Zutec goes considerably further into document control, O&M manuals and UK regulatory evidence — if that is what you are buying, it is not a like-for-like swap.
Does IssuesId handle golden-thread or Building Safety Act requirements?
Not as a named compliance product. IssuesId produces a tamper-proof, audit-logged defect and inspection record, which is evidence you can hand over — but it is not built around the UK gateway regime the way Zutec is.
Which suits an Australian builder better?
IssuesId, on fit. Zutec’s strongest features are shaped by UK legislation that does not apply here, so an Australian team would pay for a compliance engine aimed at a different regime.
