At Qwil, we know that no one has time to read long instruction manuals. Tools have to be intuitive for both staff and clients to use, with limited training required.
This is why we have summarised everything you need to know in this single pager along with a short training video to see all you need to know in action.

Why would I use Qwil?
With Qwil you know everyone is who they are (as everyone is invited on the platform) and messages are received and read with no risk of interception.
