Pros
"This is a very complete and powerful solution."

More Laserfiche Rio Pros →

"It's a very good solution.""The ability to add metadata and use that to categorize information is a valuable feature of OpenText Extended ECM.""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.""The integration of a document management platform with many other applications, e.g. SAP, SuccessFactors, Salesforce, SharePoint, etc.""Being able to tag metadata on documents and being able to have different workspaces in there for our documents is valuable. We do loan documents, and different types of documents have different types of retentions. We are able to categorize based on that, and we are able to do tag searching to find what we are looking for.""WebReports has a lot of capabilities that offer good opportunities to customize the applications the way we want to.""We can configure the solution with any industry's products per customer requirements.""The tool's most valuable features are document storage, security, and compliance."

Cons
"We would like to see more features for RPA and AI."

More Laserfiche Rio Cons →

"The solution should work better with partners and be more developer-friendly.""The solution's performance, stability, and consistency could be improved.""We are looking for new, advanced UI features. Currently, the UI does not look great.""We had some issues with scalability in the production. So, I would rate it a five out of ten.""The architecture needs improvement, as it's complex.""A dashboard with information would be nice to see.""When it comes to addressing complex use cases, three or four years ago, we ended up purchasing an additional OpenText product called AppWorks because we started to run into some limitations with the workflow that can be done in Extended ECM. It was a little limiting, so we ended up getting another product.""The tool's documentation is not proper and has missing information like steps."

Even though this one solution is a little pricey, it might eliminate other ones."
