ARTHUR BRUNO - PeerSpot reviewer
Has provided robust content management but requires simplification in configuration and usability
We almost do not utilize the automation capabilities of IBM FileNet to streamline our business processes. The process automation and business automation features are barely used. Currently, we primarily use it to store content. We are now trying to use all of the functionalities of IBM FileNet, but we have not yet utilized the full capacity of the system. We are trying to reduce redundancy with IBM FileNet by enhancing our business rules. However, we still have significant redundancy. IBM FileNet can help us reduce redundancy, but we need to understand the tool and use all the functionalities to accomplish this. Ease of use with IBM FileNet is a disadvantage of this tool. It is complex and hard to use. When we try to set up IBM FileNet, we have many questions. We do not understand what we need to do in IBM FileNet. There are many configurations we must make but do not know how to implement. While IBM FileNet is very reliable, it is very difficult to set up. When reading the documentation about IBM FileNet, it appears to be very reliable and secure, but setting up configurations, access rules, authorization, and authentication seems to be very challenging.

We don't have any experience with Ever Team but as far as I know, you need to take into consideration what the feature is that must be in your ECM solution. FileNet is a stable high volume system but as long as you add more features, you can run into a performance issue. You can ingest a huge amount of DOC via ICC (IBM Content Collector ). You can spread your installation with different repositories across your region. You can easily scale up your system. The new version is CONTAINER KUBERNTES DOCKER. Textual search and analytics are not so flexible so it will be hard to compare between those 2 softwares. Are you going to use BPM? Did you compere IBM BOW 19 VS Ever Team?
