Integration with Adobe Suite was great, but there were too many limitations based on the composition tools used

Creating dynamic content solutions for both transactional and marketing communications Developing smarter solutions for customers xPression was touted as a future solution, but didn't meet needs and therefore was replaced. Limitations of functions compared to the tool it was intended to replace…

Solutions Architect at Customer Centrics

Flexible, easy to use, and has fast output generation

Based on current market trends, Quadient has ticked all the boxes. For the next release, I would like to see more features in the Evolve Cloud offering. The Evolve Platform will be a game changer for Quadient as it will attract more enterprise customers who want to move their CCM platform to the cloud. The other CCM platform has its offering in the cloud, but it has some limited use cases.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Integration with Adobe Suite was great, allowed for smarts of industry standard tool to be leveraged."

"The most valuable features of this solution are that it is truly multi-channel and completely modular."

"The most valuable features are the easy-to-use document composition tool and the automatization tools."

"Within our organisation Quadient has radically improved our setup and processing efficiency and has enabled us to offer clients options and turnaround schedules that would not have been possible previously (Print, PDF, Email, Data etc.)."

"Inspire is fast, reliable, and pretty unlimited in what you can do."

"The user-friendly way that workflows in Quadient Inspire can be composed and organized goes a long way towards minimizing the time spent creating complex tasks, thus creating more available programming time/capacity for new jobs. While original scripting knowledge is preferential to using the tool effectively, the modular structure and GUI interface makes it much easier to grasp than otherwise might have been the case."

"It supports various types of input files and can generate different types of output files."

"Quadient is a complete solution package by which we can achieve everything in the customer communication domain."

"Its easy-to-learn scripting possibilities give unlimited possibilities for any task."

Cons

"xPression was touted as a future solution, but didn't meet needs and therefore was replaced."

"The power and depth of the product mean that it can be quite difficult to see everything that is going on."

"The de-bug/help system is quite ambiguous at times and only works if you know where to look, but I find that its search facility is perhaps not as extensive as it might be and often returns fairly random results unless the search terms used are very specific."

"I would like more wizards to be included in the scripting module and perhaps an online training course on Udemy would be a useful asset."

"We'd like to be able to see page breaks when we proof the blocks."

"One improvement would be to make the training modules or university free for users, as not all companies will pay for their employees to do the training and get the certificates."

"Imposition would be the area that we would like to see improved."

"In the (near) future I would love to be able to merge Excel XLS data with the same level of ease that we can currently merge CSV data sources (including text attributes, which are lost when using the CSV format)."

"The product would be improved with the inclusion of support for address cleansing in all of the EU countries."
