Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"This is a very complete and powerful solution."

More Laserfiche Rio Pros →

"We can configure the solution with any industry's products per customer requirements.""Smart Viewing videos are most valuable for the end users. The end users like the look and feel of Smart View. It's similar to SharePoint, with the latest HTML5 features, filters, and everything. It's like online shopping.""OpenText Extended ECM's most valuable features include permissions and security models. I also like the tool's ability to add metadata and use it to categorize information.""An SAP user can store documents directly into OpenText without a connector.""Being able to search is valuable. Its search is pretty powerful. We are able to search for specific text, and it points us to the document that has that text. That is pretty powerful.""We use Core Share to share documents with external auditors or with vendors, and that prevents them from being able to get into the whole system. It is useful.""We also have a module on top of the Content Server called WebReports that has been one of the things that helped us facilitate the workflow and give managers good reporting and visibility into where everything is. Being able to use that on top of the Content Server was a big help.""Most of our customers are very fond of the upgraded smart user interface."

Cons
"We would like to see more features for RPA and AI."

More Laserfiche Rio Cons →

"When it comes to addressing complex use cases, three or four years ago, we ended up purchasing an additional OpenText product called AppWorks because we started to run into some limitations with the workflow that can be done in Extended ECM. It was a little limiting, so we ended up getting another product.""User interface needs improvement (at least in the version we are using, desktop client).""Initially there can be stability issues due to unknown factors such as usage of the system, quantity of documents ingested, load during peak hours.""OpenText Extended ECM's user interface could be improved.""We are looking for new, advanced UI features. Currently, the UI does not look great.""The solution's performance, stability, and consistency could be improved.""The solution needs to improve the user interface.""Pricing could be improved and the stability or the performance needs improvement, which is very important."

  • "Both Open Text ECM and IBM File share are expensive."

Even though this one solution is a little pricey, it might eliminate other ones."
