Integrates cloud workflows with databases and has revealed areas we still want to explore
The best features Nomad offers directly integrate with AWS, which is useful for us. The database link feature helps my team because we have a lot of database linking. Nomad has positively impacted my organization as it is still in an evaluation phase, so I cannot comment on that right now. I have early signs and expectations that Nomad might improve efficiency.

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

"In my opinion, the best feature that Nomad offers is quality, meaning its reliability and performance."
"The best features Nomad offers directly integrate with AWS, which is useful for us."
"The engineering document management system is one of the most valuable features."
"The tool's most valuable features are document storage, security, and compliance."
"An SAP user can store documents directly into OpenText without a connector."
"The ability to add metadata and use that to categorize information is a valuable feature of OpenText Extended ECM."
"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."
"Smart Viewing videos are most valuable for the end users. The end users like the look and feel of Smart View. It's similar to SharePoint, with the latest HTML5 features, filters, and everything. It's like online shopping."
"Retention is useful. I have been pleased with the search functionality and the extensibility for tying it into integrations with other systems and building workflows on top of it."
"The integration of a document management platform with many other applications, e.g. SAP, SuccessFactors, Salesforce, SharePoint, etc."
 

Cons

"Right now, I have not seen a return on investment and cannot share relevant metrics with you."
"We are looking for new, advanced UI features. Currently, the UI does not look great."
"More out-of-the-box automation features should be added to OpenText Extended ECM."
"The tool's documentation is not proper and has missing information like steps."
"The solution should work better with partners and be more developer-friendly."
"Compatibility with external source code management tools like RTC is missing. Improvement in analytics and machine learning would help in getting a more holistic view of content."
"Pricing could be improved and the stability or the performance needs improvement, which is very important."
"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."
"Initially there can be stability issues due to unknown factors such as usage of the system, quantity of documents ingested, load during peak hours."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"OpenText Extended ECM is an expensive solution."
"The product is pricey."
"Both Open Text ECM and IBM File share are expensive."
"The tool's pricing is confusing to the end customer."
"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."
"The total cost of the product will vary on the capabilities required"
"OpenText Extended ECM's pricing and licensing are aggressive and confusing for the end customer."
"The solution is expensive."
