Q&A Highlights
Question: What is the biggest difference between IBM FileNet and EverTeam?
Answer: If you are comparing the products, then it's important to look into your requirements outside the product. From the comparison point of view, we have worked with EverTeam which is SharePoint based and FileNet. FileNet is a much-matured product and can be compared to Opentext, Documentum (now OT), as it has a complete gamete of information management (Do you actually require all of it? that you have to identify internally), and its heavy on budget. Whereas EverTeam can be compared to Omnidocs or Laserfiche which has all the required functionalities of Document Management, CMS but I am doubtful on their DAM capabilities. But most important is your requirement/scope, if it is clear, than any vendor will be able to address the same provided they have a competent implementation team.

Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "The biggest issue is the cost of the FileNet, because the license cost is very high. If a customer doesn't have good technical guides that are aware of the license calculation, they will pay too much. FileNet's license calculation depends on the processor and number of users. So my advice to a new customer is to be very careful with your calculations before purchasing FileNet."
  • "It is still a leading ECM solution provider, however the cost to implement and maintain are higher than other solutions."
  • "FileNet is not cheap, but you absolutely get what you pay for. ​"
  • "For small scale industries, they allow different options. They can do open source. It is the complexity of the data security that they should think about before they choose."
  • "For the medium scale or large scale, I would recommend FileNet. FileNet is free of licensing expenses, thus good for the money. It is not expensive, but worth for the money, especially for medium scale and large scale industries."
  • "​There are lots of components to the product. Make sure before you invest that you know which components you need.​​"
  • "1. It will be more expensive than estimated to setup. 2. You will need to double the staff while you are running the old system and installing the new system. 3. Depending on the number of documents to be migrated, make sure you understand the potentially massive amount of time and effort required to migrate the existing content to the new platform."
  • "The physical space that we have gained back pays for the service. Therefore, it has reduced our operating costs overall. We have definitely seen ROI. I would estimate $30,000 a year."

    1. IBM platform requires SME for the broad platform.
    2. The cost can be a challenge for the IBM platform.

    I am interested to know more about all the products as mentioned below, but I am not an expert to discuss and compare.

    We don't have any experience with Ever Team but as far as I know, you need to take into consideration what the feature is that must be in your ECM solution.

    FileNet is a stable high volume system but as long as you add more features, you can run into a performance issue. You can ingest a huge amount of DOC via ICC (IBM Content Collector ). You can spread your installation with different repositories across your region. You can easily scale up your system. The new version is CONTAINER KUBERNTES DOCKER.

    Textual search and analytics are not so flexible so it will be hard to compare between those 2 softwares.
