EHS Software Gartner Market Guide

Choosing the Right EHS Software: Key Insights from the 2025 Gartner® Market Guide

The landscape of EHS management is no longer defined by simple compliance checklists. Today, an EHS software is a strategic investment—a dynamic system designed to evolve with your organization, embrace responsible innovation, and empower your teams with real-time support. 

That’s why we believe the newly published 2025 Gartner® Market Guide for EHS Software is such a valuable resource for leaders searching for EHS software, especially those looking to modernize and future-proof their programs. As a Representative Vendor recognized in this year’s report, we’ve reflected on some key insights on how we believe we’re helping organizations turn these insights into action. 

 

Why the Right EHS Software Provider Matters 

In our view, one important takeaway from the 2025 Gartner® Market Guide for EHS Software is that mature EHS programs are increasingly seen as strategic assets, not just cost centers. Today, EHS platforms should do more than reduce incidents and costs—they need to foster safer, more efficient workplaces where everyone, from the frontline to the C-suite, feels empowered and engaged. 

When evaluating EHS software, it’s essential to look beyond compliance management. We believe the right platform should also drive operational excellence, boost employee engagement, and contribute directly to your organization’s bottom line. When reviewing their options companies should look for platforms that: 

  • Foster proactive risk management: Move beyond reactive measures to anticipate and mitigate hazards. 
  • Drive enterprise-wide engagement: Ensure everyone, regardless of role, can easily participate in EHS initiatives. 
  • Provide actionable intelligence: Transform raw data into insights that inform continuous improvement. 

At Benchmark Gensuite, our unified platform is designed to future-proof your operations—helping you navigate compliance, enhance performance, and adapt confidently to emerging trends. 

Our commitment extends to maximizing employee engagement through enterprise-wide operations without the hassle of per-user licensing, ensuring everyone can participate freely and collaborate seamlessly with remote capabilities. 

 

Beyond Software: Choosing a Long-Term Strategic Partner 

Selecting EHS software should mark the start of a long-term strategic partnership. For us, the Gartner report highlights the importance of vendors who not only offer powerful tools but also align with your evolving goals and provide ongoing innovation and support. 

When evaluating potential EHS software providers, we believe this are some crucial questions every decision-maker should take in mind: 

  • Does the vendor’s roadmap align with your long-term EHS and business goals? 
  • Do they offer continuous innovation and support to adapt to changing regulations and operational needs? 
  • Is there a strong collaborative community for knowledge sharing and best practices? 

In Benchmark Gensuite, collaboration drives our approach. For over a decade, we’ve partnered with our users to co-create solutions that drive real change. From early mobile adoption to cutting-edge AI-powered tools, innovation at Benchmark is built with users, not just for them.  

This deep collaboration enables Benchmark to lead in consolidating legacy systems and helping companies transition from fragmented tools to an integrated platform with enterprise-wide visibility.

AI for EHS: Enabling the Future of Safety Management 

What once seemed like science fiction is now a practical reality transforming industries: Artificial Intelligence (AI) and advanced analytics are reshaping how companies manage EHS. From our perspective, the 2025 Gartner® Market Guide for EHS Software highlights AI as a rapidly growing foundation for generating deeper insights, predicting risks, and automating routine tasks. 

What’s the key to rapid adoption of this technology? We’re convinced companies need a platform that doesn’t just “bolt on” AI but natively embed it to deliver tangible value across the EHS lifecycle.
