Allows you to upload and download files quickly but lacks integration with Office 365
For enterprise users, the data is in a local repository. We use it for files for the end user process. This is a cloud solution. In my current organization, we have over 10,000 people using this solution. I use it very extensively. Users these days are working remotely You can upload your bin,…

Streamlines document management and enhances collaboration through its robust features and intuitive interface
It's a comprehensive solution for managing documents within our organization's management framework. It employs document management methodologies. The personalization and customization capabilities of Oracle Content Management system are highly praised by customers. When they receive responses using this solution, the feedback is overwhelmingly positive. Customers love the ability to customize and personalize Oracle products to suit their needs. Integrating three Oracle products into one seamless solution enhances the user experience, making it easier for end-users to engage without being aware of the individual products involved. They simply interact with the solution, streamlining their digital processes. One significant challenge that our customers faced before implementing Oracle Content Management was effectively managing a large volume of documents. They struggled with centralizing document storage and organization. However, Oracle Content Management provided a solution by centralizing document management, making it easier and more efficient to handle. The user experience, especially in terms of simplicity and design of the Oracle Content Management interface, was a priority. I utilized the Oracle Content Management API for this purpose, ensuring seamless integration with other solutions. We consolidated three solutions into one user interface through the Oracle portal, which incorporated BPM and DPM for task management. This unified interface provided a streamlined experience for customers, rather than directly interacting with the Oracle Content Management interface. Our main challenge in implementing this was using ADF from Oracle. At the time, there was a scarcity of programmers skilled in the ADF framework in Brazil, necessitating in-house training for our team of developers to successfully execute the integration.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution is used for data storage and any kind of visualization."
"We can provide controlled access to documents using the product."
"The collaboration of the solution is good."
"The system's performance is impressive, and file sharing is notably straightforward."
"The sharing feature, with its various permission settings, such as viewing or uploading, is convenient and helpful."
"File sharing with collaborators not on the same domain with offline access from multiple devices: I work on many projects that are multi-organizational, such as with customers, suppliers, or acquisitions."
"It is a very user-friendly product."
"Sharing and collaborating across files and folders has been a massive game changer."
"It's a comprehensive solution for managing documents within our organization's management framework."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
 

Cons

"In future releases, there could be encryption, to have better security."
"Tasks and comments could be easier to see, report, search, and manage."
"I would love to see the ability to invite collaborators extended to a file level, not just the folder level."
"The room for improvement is in the area of integrations. They need to establish more integrations, especially with Office 365 and Outlook."
"If there was a plugin that added some sort of toolbar in Office, that would be great."
"Like all cloud platforms, there are always areas of improvement around sync to local devices."
"Working on documents in real-time is sometimes faulty and could be improved."
"Improvements in speed - Box's high level of security impacts performance, especially when compared with other similar services."
"Oracle Content Management poses complexities in initial implementation and configuration."
"The only issue my company has with the tool is the licensing part, which is expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I'm in Higher Ed, so we purchase through Internet2-Net+. I absolutely recommend going that route for Higher Ed customers."
"My organization pays for the license."
"Box's pricing is excellent."
"A business account has a minimum of three users. If you are more than three people in-house, go for the Enterprise version. All the external users are free of charge."
"Box needs to improve with their pricing in terms of licensing costs."
"Our pricing and licensing is excellent. I'd tell all Higher Ed customers to talk with Internet2 for excellent pricing and support."
"They are very price competitive when pushed. Initially, they come out with a standard list price, but they are willing to be very competitive. The Box price was pretty much equal to or lower than the Citrix price, and Box has more features."
"Better sign a full year's contract to get a discount."
"The tool's licensing part is expensive."
