Corfix vs. SALUS
Corfix is a construction operations platform that combines safety compliance, digital forms, incident management, certification tracking, GPS-verified timekeeping, payroll-ready exports, and crew scheduling in one system.
SALUS is a construction safety platform covering forms, incident management, and certification tracking, with no timekeeping or scheduling. Contractors using SALUS typically run separate tools for time and payroll. Corfix covers everything SALUS does, and adds the operational layer SALUS doesn’t.

What does Corfix do that SALUS can’t?
Safety that’s part of the job, not a separate app.
With Corfix, you can require a safety form completion before a worker punches out. Not as a reminder, not as a follow-up chase, but as a built-in condition of the punch-out itself. Participation goes up because the process makes it unavoidable, and every completed form is logged, signed, and audit-ready the moment it’s submitted.
Your office can see in real time who’s on site, which crews are assigned where, and whether required safety documentation has been completed, without toggling between apps or calling the super.
When your week wraps up, timekeeping data exports in a format your payroll team can actually use, drawn from GPS-verified field hours. Corfix exports time data in payroll-ready formats including CSV and PDF, with native integrations and Corfix Connectors to most major accounting software. SALUS has no timekeeping module and no equivalent to any part of this workflow.
Why does it matter that Corfix builds only for construction?
A platform built for four industries is optimized for none of them.
SALUS serves construction, oil and gas, mining, and manufacturing. That breadth has real consequences for their product roadmap, their support culture, and which feature requests get prioritized. When a platform has to serve four different industries, every industry gets a share of the investment.
Corfix builds only for construction. Every feature on the roadmap exists because a contractor asked for it. The integrations, Procore and Acumatica, are the ones construction operations actually use. And every Corfix account gets the same hands-on support: dedicated, in-person when it matters, from day one.
What do SALUS users say before switching to Corfix?
What construction teams running SALUS tell us when they’re evaluating a switch.
No company-wide view at scale. Teams running multiple branches or divisions report having to search each branch individually, with no single dashboard across the organization. For a growing contractor, that friction compounds quickly.
Features split between mobile and desktop. Some capabilities are only available on the mobile app; others only on the web platform. In a field-first environment, that forces workers to use different devices depending on what they need to do.
Submitted forms are locked. Once a worker submits a form, they cannot go back to correct an error, and cannot see the full form details after signing. For a safety program where accuracy matters, this creates gaps in the record.
Timekeeping, scheduling, and payroll remain unsolved. However you are managing crew hours and payroll today, SALUS will still require you to manage it the same way after you sign up. The platform’s category boundary doesn’t move.
What do customers say about switching to Corfix?
What a difference it makes in practice.
Bassi Construction switched to Corfix and saved the equivalent of a full-time salary in administrative overhead. Digitizing their safety forms alone freed up that much time and labour. That’s not a feature comparison. That’s what happens when software is designed around how your operation actually runs.
The crew at Smith and Long put it a different way.
“It’s very exciting that there’s something easy that makes people want to do safety documentation. And the resources, you’re plugging in all your resources and the binders, that’s massive.” — Joe Pellerino, Chief Health and Safety Officer, Smith and Long
