Easy to use with a high degree of security and excellent flexibility
Any kind of software has its issues and any kind of software can improve. Agiloft does not have a good user interface. It can surely improve. Usually, the users don't like its interface. However, once they understand the potential of this platform, they love it. As it is a very sophisticated solution, it's not the easiest one to use. There are other platforms that are much easier to use even though Agiloft presents itself as a low-code platform where you don't need to program. To configure a solution, for example, to create a BPM, is not that simple. They also are implementing some features based on artificial intelligence that seems to be very, very powerful, however, the price of using artificial intelligence in the systems for our reality and I'm talking about the Brazilian market - is very expensive. In practical terms, it doesn't seem to me that it is feasible to use due to the price. I don't have any information about any organization that it's using Agiloft in Brazil with artificial intelligence features. Another important feature for us that sometimes is an issue is that usually when you build your workflow you need access to a lot of documents, and these documents come in several formats. Sometimes you have Microsoft Office documents and sometimes you have PDFs. You have also many drawn files. Sometimes when you need to see the content of any file, it's very easy. You just click and it opens. However, when it comes to special kinds of files, you may have some problems integrating software that allows you to visualize what's inside the file.

User-friendly content management but needs more customizations
We use OpenText Documentum for managing the command life cycle and for content management Documentum helps by saving time during daily operations. The product is user-friendly. The BPM side should be improved. It would be beneficial to have more ability to customize features for specific use…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's very safe. It has a high degree of security, much better than many other solutions I have researched."
"I appreciate Documentum's scalability, allowing for vast volumes of content storage."
"It is a very secure system. It is reliable, and that is one of the reasons people manage their content within Documentum. It gives them the confidence that the content is accessible to the right people and not to the wrong people."
"The most valuable feature of OpenText Documentum is the versioning."
"The product is tamper-proof and enables us to return to the document source, which is helpful in legal issues."
"The most valuable feature is that it's a central repository for everything, whether it's videos, documents, Excel sheets, etc."
"OpenText Documentum's composition is good. It is convenient and straight out of the box."
"The product is user-friendly."
"It stands out for its impressive records management capabilities and the ability to handle an extensive volume of documents, even reaching into the billions."
 

Cons

"Agiloft does not have a good user interface."
"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."
"Sometimes DocBroker cannot see the DocBase."
"The price is quite high as the licensing prices are significant."
"The vertical application could be improved."
"The BPM side should be improved."
"An area that needs to improve is how to reduce storage space on the AWS site."
"In BPM could be better. Its GUI needs the ability to build more rules. This is a crucial feature. For example, OpenText has some products that allow you to control your checks, invoices, and so on. They have exciting approaches to converting pictures to text, but the tool for business process management isn't easy to use. The GIU is not so good."
"While generally secure, some noted security issues need consideration. The installation process for on-premise setup needs improvement as well."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The last time I saw the information it was something around $50 to $60 per month per user."
"OpenText Documentum has announced a new licensing model, which could be more expensive."
"The price is considered affordable now."
"It is quite an expensive product."
"The product is 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."
"OpenText Documentum's pricing is good."
