Time from creation to access is much better, as reports are immediately available upon generation
The usability, the ease of access, are among the most valuable features, as well as the improved functionality it gives us. Also, the solution's content interoperability for business systems and applications, as well as content, is very intuitive, highly user-friendly, and well received. Another important feature is that Mobius provides a single pane of glass for delivering content from multiple repositories. It is also highly recommended because of the ease of use when it comes to searching and retrieving from multiple repositories simultaneously. And I would highly endorse it as well for helping to provide secure access to information anytime and anywhere. That secure access is very important because of our content security requirements. I also rate it "high" for automating the governance of information while meeting global and regional data security privacy laws and regulations.

Has strong records management,, security, and integration capabilities
It provides extensive accessibility to our content, and it's a vital component in our work processes. We've gained access to a plethora of applications through OpenText, which enables us to enhance our services for customers. One notable example is the integration with Xfinity ECM, a solution that seamlessly integrates with SAP. For instance, when someone working with SAP needs to access a specific invoice document, SAP itself doesn't store these documents, instead, the content related to the invoice number seamlessly flows through Documentum. It offers robust security features and it allows to leverage a variety of plugins from OpenText to enhance security. For example, there are plugins like Trusted Content Services that allow you to encrypt entire documents for added security, though it's essential to be aware that this might impact performance. It is a highly potent content management tool. It stands out for its impressive records management capabilities and the ability to handle an extensive volume of documents, even reaching into the billions.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution has improved our organization by providing a central repository for business data with control over sensitive data."
"It provides a single pane of glass for delivering content from multiple repositories. It is also highly recommended because of the ease of use when it comes to searching and retrieving from multiple repositories simultaneously."
"The stability is very good."
"OpenText Documentum has improved availability and performance in our organization."
"It is quite good."
"The most valuable feature is the management."
"The most valuable feature is that it's a central repository for everything, whether it's videos, documents, Excel sheets, etc."
"It provides possibilities for us to save documents and supporting the business process while doing so."
"I appreciate Documentum's scalability, allowing for vast volumes of content storage."
"Two things are excellent in Documentum. One is business process management. The other is its support for metadata."
 

Cons

"The setup and the support could be improved when it comes to populating the reports from a mainframe environment."
"Sales and service need to be more consistent."
"The documentation often leaves customers feeling somewhat frustrated, as OpenText seems to expect customers to remind them constantly about the need for better documentation, as they don't provide clear guidance on their documentation practices."
"The user interface can be improved."
"The licensing model should be changed."
"While generally secure, some noted security issues need consideration. The installation process for on-premise setup needs improvement as well."
"I would like to see performance improvements, especially regarding slow response times."
"The vertical application could be improved."
"The main issue is the software's performance when storing around 10 million or more documents. It becomes slow and needs improvement. Perhaps it's a cloud-related issue, but it needs to be addressed. It could be due to our S3 bucket or something else. Nevertheless, this is a significant challenge we're facing."
"It can be somewhat cumbersome for the operations team since it’s not a cloud instance"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing and licensing are commensurate with other solutions in the market that handle a distributed system environment."
"OpenText Documentum's pricing is good."
"OpenText Documentum has announced a new licensing model, which could be more expensive."
"It falls in line with a lot of things that are out there on the market. There is nothing extraordinary in terms of great or bad."

"The price is considered affordable now."
"The product is expensive."
