Stable content and workflow management solution with a valuable retention module
We use this solution for record management and digitization of records. We also use it for workflows and to build online forms The retention module is one of the most valuable features. Whatever we scan onto the system can be identified and we are notified when the records are due to be disposed.…

I would like to see improvements in the web client and the workflow engine.
I think that the biggest area for improvement is for their core component, the Java Core Server (JCS). In addition, there could be improvement in the following areas: * Saperion web client: Does not support many rich-client features and is inconsistent between thin and thick clients * The VBA macro API was very poor * No real toolset provided * No debugging options * Workflow engine * No official and supported procedure of deploying/moving a solution between stages, which was officially stated by the vendor
