"Being able to search is valuable. Its search is pretty powerful. We are able to search for specific text, and it points us to the document that has that text. That is pretty powerful."
"We also have a module on top of the Content Server called WebReports that has been one of the things that helped us facilitate the workflow and give managers good reporting and visibility into where everything is. Being able to use that on top of the Content Server was a big help."

"A dashboard with information would be nice to see."
"We had some issues with scalability in the production. So, I would rate it a five out of ten."
"The initial setup can get really complicated, and it takes time."
"The solution needs to improve the user interface."
"Initially there can be stability issues due to unknown factors such as usage of the system, quantity of documents ingested, load during peak hours."
