Flexible in terms of how the UI assists users working in a variety of roles
Our initial setup was complex because we are guaranteed to have approximately two thousand concurrent users. We began first with a couple of servers, then after a couple of years, as we saw that the usage was going up, we grew both horizontally and vertically. We have a pretty big team here, with fifteen huge processes. I would say that from a development perspective, building one complex process will take a couple of developers, and an additional person is required to exclusively handle the support. There are many factors to it. In our organization, we need 24/7 support because we have trade finances that work in the middle of the night. We require additional support to accommodate people working in shifts. If change requests come in then one developer may be able to handle three processes. In the case of a new requirement, there is normally one developer who works with the team leader that is monitoring the entire setup.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is working fine so far. I haven't heard anything bad about it from the applications team that is using it, so I assume that it is doing okay."
"They are a good team that is proactive, and they are trying to accommodate all of our requirements."
"The most valuable features of Newgen OmniFlow are the user interface, the low-code no-code designer tools, and the integration models are important."
"Newgen will structure the system based on all the requirements of the business. We can design the forms as complex forms or make our own versions to fix what's wrong."
"The most valuable feature for us is the Omnicon. That made sense for us because our company is now able to capture information from documents."
"The UI is easy. It's not very code based, so you can make certain changes on your end."
"The integration capabilities of Newgen OmniFlow are excellent due to its ready APIs, enabling easy API creation for consumption across different systems."
"The most valuable feature is the flexibility in using it."
"The stability of the product is very good."
"All the features come as part of a standard license."
"OpenText ProVision's best feature is the capability to attach a variety of attributes and extract and analyze that information."
 

Cons

"We had consistent issues of Newgen OmniFlow crashing. It's not compatible with bounce browsers like Chrome."
"The development teams should be more agile and they need to have more team members."
"Newgen OmniFlow could improve by having more out-of-the-box integration modules. It would be beneficial to have an analytics model that is not currently present."
"Improvement is needed in supporting the partner ecosystem."
"There should be some reporting and dashboarding capabilities. I don't see such capabilities built into it. Sometimes, the leadership wants to understand the business cases that we want to automate. We face a lot of challenges to justify why we are using Newgen, and we need a way to present that to the leadership. If there is something out of the box and if we can get meaningful dashboards and reporting capabilities, it would be helpful."
"At the system level, I would like to see things be much more flexible, especially for different document templates and introducing changes."
"I would like to see more automated analytics built into the solution."
"In terms of stability, like every product it has its issues."
"Integrating with or interfacing with other tools like data management tools would be very helpful."
"OpenText ProVision's collaboration management is quite complicated and difficult to use."
"Lacks the ability to have your own in-house developments."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The on-prem solution is affordable. The cloud solution is more expensive. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
"The price of Newgen OmniFlow is priced reasonably."
"Overall, this solution is very cost effective when compared to other solutions in the market."
"Its price is a bit on the high side, but that's okay. From a company perspective, it is reasonable."
