"The features we use quite a lot are the mail and Google Drive. We can store documents and share documents between both employees here, locally in Sweden, and we have an office in the US as well. It's a very easy way to share information and documents, and have online meetings and stuff with Google Meet. We use it quite a lot.""I like everything that Google does. They have good products.""From a security point of view, Google will alert you if anything strange is happening. They will flag it for you so you are aware.""We use Google Sheets extensively for things like sharing plans, data, test reports, and more.""It's a secure solution that enables you to choose those you wish to share with.""Good search features, reliable storage, and quick thinking.""It has saved us money.""personally prefer to use G Suite applications, such as Gmail, Slides, and Sheets, because they give you the freedom to share the document you're editing and co-work with other colleagues simultaneously."

More Google Workspace Pros →

"The solution is very developed and we are not taking full advantage of its functionalities.""We found the setup process to be okay since they do offer a troubleshooting guide.""The retention module is one of the most valuable features. Whatever we scan onto the system can be identified and we are notified when the records are due to be disposed.""The most valuable features are that it's very secure and provides audit trails for our documents.""I like the cloud and its integrability.""OnBase is a remarkable tool. It is a well-done product. Hyland has a lot of experience in building it and looking for new things for clients in terms of functionalities. It has amazing stability, and it can grow horizontally and vertically. It is built for growth. Their technical support is also quite good and available throughout the year."

Cons
"The user interface is not very intuitive.""Some of our customers are facing issues if they've deployed in hybrid mode.""DLP features are lacking and required because, especially with everyone working from home, security is now paramount when the data is on BYOD devices.""My only issue with this solution is the cost, which should be improved.""There are sometimes scalability issues after updates.""They should integrate the solution with more email services.""The configuration on the mobile devices is a little clunky, in terms of setting up the application.""Everything they have should be integrated into one item."

More Citrix ShareFile Cons →

"For Google Docs, if you upload a Word document up to Google Docs, it could mess up your formatting quite a bit.""Our users have faced an issue with increasing their email quotas over the last three months.""The price could be reduced.""They could increase the number of third-party integrations on offer.""There are too many steps for sharing pictures.""We've had difficulty using PowerPoint files in G Suite. PowerPoint has some functions that are not available in G Suite, so when you convert from PPTX to the Slides format, they don't work.""I talked with G Suite recently because my G Suite has a temporary block. I communicated with the G Suite representative or Google representative, and he told me that I sent a lot of emails, so my email was temporarily blocked. But I know I have not sent more than 500 emails daily to reach the limit. I sent only 5,200 emails, but unfortunately, my G Suite account was temporarily blocked for 24 hours, and then he resolved it. I think they need to improve G Suite because this temporary block is not fair.""There could be more options in Google G Suite. They can include HD calling for Google Meet. The layout portion in the calendar for Google G Suite can be better designed. When we get into the calendar and start scheduling meetings, we do have few hiccups here and there. The layout can be a little easier. People from different backgrounds are finding it a little bit tough to understand. It should be more intuitive. At the moment, it has a completely white background. To do power saving, it would be good if they can release a darker background. There are a few issues with the formatting of Google Docs when they get converted to Microsoft docs. It would be amazing if they can resolve it in the next release."

"For user experience, they would have to do more with the interface. It is not easy to work with and is a little messy. It is getting better, but it is not yet good enough. Other products are comparatively doing better in terms of the user interface. I have been hearing about Box, which is very easy to use and learn for the users. OnBase has to work on this aspect. It should have BPM capabilities. We compete with tools that provide the BPM feature and support those standards. They can do better in terms of the pricing model. It is a really expensive tool in Latin America. They should have different prices for different regions.""The look and feel could be better. The integration with the user could be better. It could also be more user-friendly.""We are struggling with duplicates and would like to have OCR functionality when using this solution.""An area for improvement would be the training - getting our people up to speed on how to use it required more training than we expected due to the complexity of the solution.""We need to troubleshoot why our reports didn't get downloaded in a day. There is a workflow feature which powerful but also complicated.""The dashboards do have some room for improvement as compared to the other vendors which are there in the market."

    Overview
    ShareFile is a secure file sync and sharing service that meets the mobility and collaboration needs of users and the security requirements of businesses.

    Similar to G Suite, all Google Workspace plans provide a custom email for your business and include collaboration tools like Gmail, Calendar, Meet, Chat, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Forms, Sites, and more.

    As we’ve evolved G Suite into a more integrated experience across our communication and collaboration tools, we’ve rebranded to Google Workspace to more accurately represent the product vision.

    Hyland OnBase is acclaimed for its robust document management, automating workflows, and improving organizational efficiency across various industries. Praised for its ability to manage records compliantly, especially in regulated sectors like healthcare and finance, the tool also integrates smoothly with other enterprise systems. Users benefit significantly from streamlined processes, reduced manual tasks, and enhanced data accuracy, boosting productivity and customer satisfaction.
