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…

Records Management Officer at ANZPAA
Our our official repository and it has disposal management and retention management
The security architecture is the only problem as it's a little bit complex and too torturous at times. So it could be improved a little bit, but it is regarded as a very good system in Australia. It's probably overly subscribed. Also, what's missing is what people would like, which is basically online collaboration. That's a problem. But it has so many other things to offer that SharePoint, I'm sure, will not have. So, that will be an interesting issue to come up. It's not very good at providing stable and robust add-ins to Microsoft. That's a bit of a problem with Content Manager. They're kind of very volatile. So, that's been definitely something that could be improved.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"This solution has improved our organization by providing a central repository for business data with control over sensitive data."
"The Mobius Content Management Services platform has greatly improved our productivity, taking our time from creation to access from, at times, minutes to expose, to milliseconds to expose, with reports immediately accessible at generation."
"Archiving is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"An advantage is integration with your IP directory."
"This is a wonderful product with many options."
"The most valuable features of OpenText Content Manager are its stability, reliability, security, and workflow engine."
"Drag and drop: With users having dual screens nowadays, this functionality is used a lot by staff and is also a good way to show people who are new to TRIM (HPE Content Manager) the simplicity of how things can be done."
"Sharing of documents, reduction of duplication, and the ability to manage retention, disposition and overall records management have been significant benefits for our organization."
"HPE Content Manager provides organizations with a reliable system for managing massive amounts of information, in a structured, compliant and secure way, with a level of functionality and reliability that I have not seen matched by custom-built or other systems."
"Eliminated the need for paper records."
"We like how the solution allows us to have retention of records and workflows, as well as its fire plan."
 

Cons

"Sales and service need to be more consistent."
"If it were up to me, I wouldn't use Mobius due to its lack of accessibility and outdated interface."
"The primary area for improvement is the platform's accessibility."
"The setup and the support could be improved when it comes to populating the reports from a mainframe environment."
"When the new version is available, the vendor should make it easier for upgrading this product."
"Functionality gets removed as new versions are released."
"The product could improve its scalability."
"Pricing is an issue, as it is too expensive."
"Many projects I've worked on encounter issues in production relating to load balancing and throttling where systems cannot cope with the volumes and capacity of transactional processing."
"Technical support is very frustrating. It is difficult to get a good response from HPE and even more difficult to find anyone that can really help us with the product."
"I would like to see an improvement in the licensing process. It is very complicated and it seems to involve many different people throughout the entire process."
"We have not yet utilized the web version, as we encountered a few issues during testing."
"The ease of use should be addressed. If one is skillful then this will not present a problem, but a person who is not will be forced to struggle."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing and licensing are commensurate with other solutions in the market that handle a distributed system environment."
"The solution's licensing cost depends on the customer domain. Though its costs are high, the product is worth the money. You have to pay a one-time cost and support costs."
"I would suggest that you do a thorough evaluation of all competing products and look for support for these products in your local area."
"The fees incurred are for the licensing and maintenance."
"I rate the product price an eight or nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive. The solution is expensive."
