Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Mobius excels in ensuring data security for captured content, which is crucial."

"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."

"Mobius excels in ensuring data security for captured content, which is crucial."

"We use Core Share to share documents with external auditors or with vendors, and that prevents them from being able to get into the whole system. It is useful."

"OpenText Extended ECM's most valuable features include permissions and security models. I also like the tool's ability to add metadata and use it to categorize information."

"Being able to tag metadata on documents and being able to have different workspaces in there for our documents is valuable. We do loan documents, and different types of documents have different types of retentions. We are able to categorize based on that, and we are able to do tag searching to find what we are looking for."

"Smart Viewing videos are most valuable for the end users. The end users like the look and feel of Smart View. It's similar to SharePoint, with the latest HTML5 features, filters, and everything. It's like online shopping."

"Most of our customers are very fond of the upgraded smart user interface."

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

"We also have a module on top of the Content Server called WebReports that has been one of the things that helped us facilitate the workflow and give managers good reporting and visibility into where everything is. Being able to use that on top of the Content Server was a big help."

"We can configure the solution with any industry's products per customer requirements."

Cons

"If it were up to me, I wouldn't use Mobius due to its lack of accessibility and outdated interface."

"The setup and the support could be improved when it comes to populating the reports from a mainframe environment."

"The primary area for improvement is the platform's accessibility."

"Sales and service need to be more consistent."

"We had some issues with scalability in the production. So, I would rate it a five out of ten."

"The solution needs to improve the user interface."

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

"User interface needs improvement (at least in the version we are using, desktop client)."

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

"Initially there can be stability issues due to unknown factors such as usage of the system, quantity of documents ingested, load during peak hours."

"The cost of the product could be improved."

"The solution should work better with partners and be more developer-friendly."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing and licensing are commensurate with other solutions in the market that handle a distributed system environment."

"It is a little more expensive than our previous solution, but because of the fact that it has become a rallying point for different groups to come under, it might end up paying off better in the long run by not having seven siloed solutions. Even though this one solution is a little pricey, it might eliminate other ones."

"The pricing is costly. It's costly to integrate with Office 365 and to go back and forth with the sales team."

"OpenText Extended ECM is an expensive solution."

"The tool's pricing is confusing to the end customer."

"The solution is expensive."

"The total cost of the product will vary on the capabilities required"

"OpenText Extended ECM's pricing and licensing are aggressive and confusing for the end customer."

"The licensing is not that complex for the core products, but it becomes more complicated for some additional modules."
