Pros
"We primarily use it for storing documents. We host a variety of documents in OpenText Documentum.

It is convenient and straight out of the box.""The most valuable feature is that it's a central repository for everything, whether it's videos, documents, Excel sheets, etc.""The most valuable features of this solution are the security, storage, and document search capability.""The product is tamper-proof and enables us to return to the document source, which is helpful in legal issues.""It has reduced the amount of paper documents; reducing time and errors in the process.""It provides possibilities for us to save documents and supporting the business process while doing so."

"The main factor that separates Red Hat software from Oracle, IBM, Pegasystems, is the ability that it gives you to design the screens outside the software and connect it as another component with the BPM engine."

Cons
"It needs a better UI and it should also be cloud-ready. The UI has not changed in years.""One area for improvement in OpenText Documentum is its handling of outdated documents, especially technical ones.""OpenText Documentum has a lot of scope for improvement in terms of adding some AI integrations.""We mostly use the Life Sciences package. That package is somewhat dated. There should be enhancements to the Life Science package and additional offerings to support pharma in particular.""The documentation often leaves customers feeling somewhat frustrated, as OpenText seems to expect customers to remind them constantly about the need for better documentation, as they don't provide clear guidance on their documentation practices.""The user interface can be a bit more intuitive.""They should develop something so that bugs don't happen in our project. We make changes manually and some bugs happen.""OpenText Documentum's user interface could be improved a little bit."

"I think the documentation for the tool, the official documentation, is not as strong as in other tools. You have lot of community. That is good. But sometimes you need - when you are working on a big client or a critical process - to be certain about certain things. So I think that the documentation for the tool, from the company, could be a little stronger."

  • "Without any discount, you need tools that cost roughly between $80,000 to $100,000. That is less than with IBM. And on top of that you need the consulting. That will be another $200,000. So a quarter to a third of a million dollars is needed to use get started with BPM. So I usually recommend to my clients that they begin with a little project, with the community version. That way they don't spend $200,000 or $300,000, they spend $150,000 and zero on software."
