Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Hyland OnBase is valued for its security, especially for those in the finance domain who require data confidentiality."
"Integrating Hyland OnBase with our systems enabled us to automate document designs and templates, which was extremely helpful in the finance and banking industry."
"The solution's most valuable features are integration and flexibility."
"I like the cloud and its integrability."
"Its most valuable aspect is its flexibility"
"The solution is very developed and we are not taking full advantage of its functionalities."
"OnBase is a remarkable tool. It is a well-done product. Hyland has a lot of experience in building it and looking for new things for clients in terms of functionalities. It has amazing stability, and it can grow horizontally and vertically. It is built for growth. Their technical support is also quite good and available throughout the year."
"The product's initial setup phase is not difficult."
"OpenText 360's best features are platform independence and its performance when searching large numbers of documents."
"The collaborative environment for long-term archival or record management is great."
"OpenText 360 for SharePoint integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Teams, allowing me to monitor and manage projects and task issues using mobile devices."
"OpenText 360 for SharePoint significantly saves time for users by streamlining the tasks of handling, searching, and maintaining documents compared to traditional file servers."
"We concentrate on the legal industry, such as legal libraries. It's the most structured solution we have used and implemented for five years."
"We have manual processes, so the workflow enables us to automate a number of these processes."
"This solution has good connection and we do not need to migrate everything in order to protect the repository."
"The fact that you can see and create something that fits your business is the most valuable thing in this platform. It is a customizable product, so it fits your needs."
 

Cons

"The application could potentially be more open-source, allowing integration with more solutions."
"Software malfunctioning usually occurs when we receive documents from external sources."
"We are struggling with duplicates and would like to have OCR functionality when using this solution."
"The look and feel could be better. The integration with the user could be better. It could also be more user-friendly."
"The dashboards do have some room for improvement as compared to the other vendors which are there in the market."
"We need to troubleshoot why our reports didn't get downloaded in a day. There is a workflow feature which powerful but also complicated."
"For user experience, they would have to do more with the interface. It is not easy to work with and is a little messy. It is getting better, but it is not yet good enough. Other products are comparatively doing better in terms of the user interface. I have been hearing about Box, which is very easy to use and learn for the users. OnBase has to work on this aspect. It should have BPM capabilities. We compete with tools that provide the BPM feature and support those standards. They can do better in terms of the pricing model. It is a really expensive tool in Latin America. They should have different prices for different regions."
"The migration is a bit difficult in the tool."
"They are not going for any add-ons right now. It's the same version we are still using and there is no plan of upgrading and/or creating any add-ons at all."
"An area for improvement would be how the platform handles large volumes of documents. It also doesn't provide a very good, robust backup and restore capacity. In the next release, I would like the search technology to be improved."
"The user interface could definitely be improved."
"If I have to really create an internal knowledge management portal, if I have to compare SharePoint and WordPress, WordPress is far, far better in regard to the SharePoint option."
"OpenText 360 is generally stable, though there are sometimes issues with document size or format."
"They need to come with more out of the box solutions, rather than depending on customers to develop them."
"The platform's workflows could be more intuitive and easier to use."
"The GUI should be improved for better user experience. Additionally, while there are standard connectors for automation and approvals in Power Platform, some tasks still need to be handled with API request calls instead of direct connectors, which could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"OnBase is reasonably priced."
"The tool's price is high."
"They can do better in terms of the pricing model. It is a really expensive tool in Latin America. They should have different prices for different regions."
"The solution costs around $6,000 per month."
"There are a number of different types of licenses. There are concurrent licenses, individual licenses and imaging licenses."
"On-premises version is expensive"
"There is a license needed to use OpenText 360 for SharePoint and we pay annually. The price of the solution could be less expensive."
"OpenText 360's price varies depending on how long you've been a customer, how many licenses you have, and which products you use."
"Its price is reasonable, but its licensing is very complex. This platform contains a number of pieces, and you have to be an expert in reading all the conditions in the license. They should simplify its licensing."
"It has a reasonable price."

"Pricing is a part of the enterprise agreement that we have."
