"The most valuable feature is to be able to modify the file online and keep it stored on the cloud, since it is not necessary to download it to make modifications."

"It was extremely easy to setup."

"We use Microsoft OneDrive for file sharing without the need for additional hardware (such as flash drives or external hard drives)."

"The solution's automatic document numbering, state management, and process flow are very useful features to go through the full cycle of the document."

"The engineering document management system is one of the most valuable features."

"It's a very good solution."

"The area that can be improved is to be able to share easily with folks outside the organization and with folks who don't have an office account. Sometimes, when you send a link, you might have some form of repetition. If you don't know how to share it properly, whoever you are sharing it with will have issues using it. Also, the link that you use to share a document can be made a bit shorter. It doesn't have to be long. Typically, when you want to share a document, it has everything, such as the name of the organization, SharePoint, etc. A short URL will be easier to use, and it will just make life easier, especially because a lot of people are now going mobile. I'm not sure if there's a mobile version of Microsoft OneDrive, similar to Google Drive. If they don't have a mobile app, it would also be nice to have a mobile app because that would help in checking out your documents. It would be easy to check your documents on the go on your phone."

"It takes too long for OneDrive to synchronize various applications, especially when you are saving office data. It also requires too much bandwidth."

"The file structure insight could be made more flexible like for creating more flexible folders."

"There are not enough ways to assign permissions to shared folders and files."

"Technical support is not very impressive and is typical of large company software support."

"The technical support is really very bad."

"I think it should be more user-friendly with more tutorials on the full scale of the program."

"A dashboard with information would be nice to see."

"I have not used it enough to start running into issues. Some of my technical guys could name a couple of things, but in terms of support, we did have challenges getting good responses from them."

"We are looking for new, advanced UI features. Currently, the UI does not look great."

"The response time is not effective, and the staff lacks adequate knowledge."

"The architecture needs improvement, as it's complex."

"More out-of-the-box automation features should be added to OpenText Extended ECM."

"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 solution's performance, stability, and consistency could be improved."

"Using this software, it has had an amazing impact moneywise on our business. It allows us to share documents without the need of extra hardware."
