Improving data accessibility and security through enhanced interface design
In my current role, we use Mobius to capture data. We are partnered with the government, and the Mobius app is used to ensure accurate data capture. We use it alongside Salesforce to document our clients' entire process as they go through programs, capturing details of their work journey Mobius…

Has provided deep integration with business applications and supported full content lifecycle management
OpenText Content Management has a feature that is unique in the market, which is the deep integration with leading applications, allowing reflection of the connections between different processes and objects in applications such as SAP, SuccessFactors, or Salesforce, visible inside the document management application. Without connecting to the leading application, for example SAP, you can navigate between all documentation, having a full 360-degree view of all information related to the process. This means that when you create some action regarding an object that has a connected document in the content management system, you can automatically see additional information connected, managed and controlled by the leading application, with automatic reflection in the document management system. This is a unique advantage that OpenText Content Management has, which is not found in the market. Another unique feature is the integration with Office 365, where you can work with different folders or binders in the document management system and connect to Teams in a simple way, making all this information available in the Teams you are working with. Digital Asset Management is a big part of the content management solution within OpenText Content Management, allowing full integration of all documentation, pictures, plans, and technical documentation if you have asset management inside SAP. It connects similarly to other modules of SAP but includes a special feature for asset management from a technical point of view and connects with the engineering department, providing the full life cycle from development through deployment to maintenance. This means you have the full life cycle from the beginning when you define the solution, construct it, and finally transfer it to maintenance to keep all information updated easily, avoiding risks and ensuring access to accurate information at the right moment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution has improved our organization by providing a central repository for business data with control over sensitive data."
"Mobius excels in ensuring data security for captured content, which is crucial."
"It provides a single pane of glass for delivering content from multiple repositories. It is also highly recommended because of the ease of use when it comes to searching and retrieving from multiple repositories simultaneously."
"Mobius excels in ensuring data security for captured content, which is crucial."
"Simplicity to roll out, features available, customization options."
"We can configure the solution with any industry's products per customer requirements."
"Scalability is great. We can extend areas horizontally and vertically."
"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."
"The integration of a document management platform with many other applications, e.g. SAP, SuccessFactors, Salesforce, SharePoint, etc."
"OpenText Extended ECM's most valuable features include permissions and security models. I also like the tool's ability to add metadata and use it to categorize information."
"The engineering document management system is one of the most valuable features."
"The tool's most valuable features are document storage, security, and compliance."
 

Cons

"If it were up to me, I wouldn't use Mobius due to its lack of accessibility and outdated interface."
"The setup and the support could be improved when it comes to populating the reports from a mainframe environment."
"Sales and service need to be more consistent."
"The primary area for improvement is the platform's accessibility."
"The solution needs to improve the user interface."
"The architecture needs improvement, as it's complex."
"A few years ago, it would have rated as a ten, but there was a shift to a new support platform that led to significant issues."
"The tool's documentation is not proper and has missing information like steps."
"OpenText Extended ECM's user interface could be improved."
"The solution's performance, stability, and consistency could be improved."
"User interface needs improvement (at least in the version we are using, desktop client)."
"Pricing could be improved and the stability or the performance needs improvement, which is very important."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing and licensing are commensurate with other solutions in the market that handle a distributed system environment."
"The licensing is not that complex for the core products, but it becomes more complicated for some additional modules."
"It is a little more expensive than our previous solution, but because of the fact that it has become a rallying point for different groups to come under, it might end up paying off better in the long run by not having seven siloed solutions. Even though this one solution is a little pricey, it might eliminate other ones."
"OpenText Extended ECM is an expensive solution."
"The product is pricey."
"The solution is expensive."
"OpenText Extended ECM's pricing and licensing are aggressive and confusing for the end customer."
"The total cost of the product will vary on the capabilities required"
"Both Open Text ECM and IBM File share are expensive."
