Self Employed at a tech vendor
I value the document formatting and generation.
I value the document formatting and generation. It has evolved over time and has seen better days, but the capabilities are still very good. However, not for the high price. The product is good, but it is butchered to be a workflow engine, which it is not really designed for.

Flexible, easy to use, and has fast output generation
Based on current market trends, Quadient has ticked all the boxes. For the next release, I would like to see more features in the Evolve Cloud offering. The Evolve Platform will be a game changer for Quadient as it will attract more enterprise customers who want to move their CCM platform to the cloud. The other CCM platform has its offering in the cloud, but it has some limited use cases.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The system has improved a number of customers' communication pieces, made them look better, and provided features to enhance them."
"Within our organisation Quadient has radically improved our setup and processing efficiency and has enabled us to offer clients options and turnaround schedules that would not have been possible previously (Print, PDF, Email, Data etc.)."
"The most valuable feature we have found is the speed to produce files and the number of files that can be sent at one time."
"The user-friendly way that workflows in Quadient Inspire can be composed and organized goes a long way towards minimizing the time spent creating complex tasks, thus creating more available programming time/capacity for new jobs. While original scripting knowledge is preferential to using the tool effectively, the modular structure and GUI interface makes it much easier to grasp than otherwise might have been the case."
"There's good flexibility in terms of integrating with other ecosystems."
"From my own personal use of Inspire, I can wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone considering it as a solution for their business in the right circumstances."
"Quadient Inspire has improved our efficiency all round in the data processing department; we have been able to take on jobs that we couldn't do before the implementation of Quadient Inspire and it has sped up the processing of data in an unbelievable fashion."
"Its easy-to-learn scripting possibilities give unlimited possibilities for any task."
"Inspire is fast, reliable, and pretty unlimited in what you can do."
 

Cons

"Everything is proprietary and the days are counted that it will last."
"Documentation could always use some improvement, especially on something this complex and varied."
"It would be great to have an easy interface to handle the 80% of simple impositions and still have the complexity needed for the other 20%."
"The help system is quite thorough if you know where to look, but I find that its search facility is perhaps not as extensive as it might be and often returns fairly random results unless the search terms used are very specific."
"One improvement would be to make the training modules or university free for users, as not all companies will pay for their employees to do the training and get the certificates."
"We'd like to be able to see page breaks when we proof the blocks."
"I would like more wizards to be included in the scripting module and perhaps an online training course on Udemy would be a useful asset."
"They could add more functionality in near future in Inspire Interactive."
"I feel the scripting modules are very powerful but are difficult to use if you do not have the programming knowledge."
