Saves time and increases an organization's productivity
It's a great enterprise content management product. Our customers love the product for its stability and scalability. Search is the most useful feature of the solution. The way we retrieve documents is more important than how we store them. There's no use if we can't find a document. It's the most critical feature. My organization works with other customers. We are consultants for OpenText. Our customers have seen a lot of benefits in terms of regulatory compliance. Industries like banking are highly regulated. The product captures the information centrally so everybody in the bank can see the right information at the right time. It is tamper-proof and enables us to return to the document source, which is helpful with legal issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product has a strong and easy integration with Teams."
"The most valuable features are collaboration, traceability, retention of documents, and search."
"OpenText 360 for SharePoint significantly saves time for users by streamlining the tasks of handling, searching, and maintaining documents compared to traditional file servers."
"This solution has good connection and we do not need to migrate everything in order to protect the repository."
"The most valuable feature of OpenText 360 for SharePoint is its performance. The solution is one of the best in the market if you search the internet."
"We concentrate on the legal industry, such as legal libraries. It's the most structured solution we have used and implemented for five years."
"It's all now on cloud subscription, so you can use all the features without worrying about making the system updates patches."
"The collaborative environment for long-term archival or record management is great."
"The most valuable feature is the good automation engine, which helps in reducing the development cost and allows easy development of applications."
"The tool's most valuable feature is ACL, which helps to control the user groups that access the documents."
"The most valuable feature of OpenText Documentum is the versioning."
"I appreciate Documentum's scalability, allowing for vast volumes of content storage."
"The most valuable feature is the management."
"Documentum is a highly scalable document management solution because it's built on a solid platform."
"It has reduced the amount of paper documents; reducing time and errors in the process."
"It provides possibilities for us to save documents and supporting the business process while doing so."
 

Cons

"Integration is an area where the solution lacks."
"The platform's workflows could be more intuitive and easier to use."
"The GUI should be improved for better user experience. Additionally, while there are standard connectors for automation and approvals in Power Platform, some tasks still need to be handled with API request calls instead of direct connectors, which could be improved."
"We have a very good time to market tool, and the development platform should be made user-friendly. Mostly, it's just support."
"An area for improvement would be how the platform handles large volumes of documents. It also doesn't provide a very good, robust backup and restore capacity. In the next release, I would like the search technology to be improved."
"The graphical user interface had to be more user-friendly. It's not as intuitive."
"OpenText 360 is generally stable, though there are sometimes issues with document size or format."
"In the future, I would like to see new features in SharePoint for improved project tracking processes."
"The user interface can be a bit more intuitive."
"The product needs to improve the way documents are logged together. I believe running it on the cloud or containerization will bring value to it. The tool's Time to Market and deployment cycle need to be improved. Finding suitable training materials for OpenText Documentum is also a bottleneck. If we can find the training modules easily, we can bring together people, give them quick training, and start working on the deployment. It can help with quick outputs."
"The price is quite high as the licensing prices are significant."
"The BPM side should be improved."
"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."
"It can be somewhat cumbersome for the operations team since it’s not a cloud instance"
"The licensing model should be changed."
"OpenText Documentum is moving to the cloud, and I am concerned about the security aspect of it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is a part of the enterprise agreement that we have."
"OpenText 360's price varies depending on how long you've been a customer, how many licenses you have, and which products you use."
"SharePoint uses a subscription model."
"On-premises version is expensive"
"It has a reasonable price."
"The solution has a very complex pricing model."
"There is a license needed to use OpenText 360 for SharePoint and we pay annually. The price of the solution could be less expensive."
"Its price is reasonable, but its licensing is very complex. This platform contains a number of pieces, and you have to be an expert in reading all the conditions in the license. They should simplify its licensing."
"It is quite an expensive product."
"The price is considered affordable now."
"OpenText Documentum has announced a new licensing model, which could be more expensive."
"OpenText Documentum's pricing is good."
"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 product is expensive."
