Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Retention is useful. I have been pleased with the search functionality and the extensibility for tying it into integrations with other systems and building workflows on top of it.""We can configure the solution with any industry's products per customer requirements.""The tool's most valuable features are document storage, security, and compliance.""Being able to tag metadata on documents and being able to have different workspaces in there for our documents is valuable. We do loan documents, and different types of documents have different types of retentions. We are able to categorize based on that, and we are able to do tag searching to find what we are looking for.""It's a very good solution.""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.""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.""The solution's automatic document numbering, state management, and process flow are very useful features to go through the full cycle of the document."

Cons
"The solution should work better with partners and be more developer-friendly.""The initial setup can get really complicated, and it takes time.""We are looking for new, advanced UI features. Currently, the UI does not look great.""The annotation tool needs improvement. In other tools, such as Hyland OnBase, you can easily do annotation. You can easily merge documents. You can easily compare documents, whereas with OpenText, it seems to be a challenge.""The tool's documentation is not proper and has missing information like steps.""User interface needs improvement (at least in the version we are using, desktop client).""We had some issues with scalability in the production. So, I would rate it a five out of ten.""OpenText Extended ECM's user interface could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The licensing is not that complex for the core products, but it becomes more complicated for some additional modules."
  • "Both Open Text ECM and IBM File share are expensive."
  • "It is a little more expensive than our previous solution, but because of the fact that it has become a rallying point for different groups to come under, it might end up paying off better in the long run by not having seven siloed solutions. Even though this one solution is a little pricey, it might eliminate other ones."
  • "The tool's pricing is confusing to the end customer."
