The full-text indexing and search of PDF documents. The command line utilities allow bulk manipulation of documents; that is, if any reorganization is needed. For one implementation, the full-text indexing of PDF documents and associated search were the most valuable features. It allowed the department to search with sufficient accuracy that there was no need to add metadata during the upload/content intake process. This greatly reduced the document preparation and scanning time. DocuShare has a set of command line utilities that allow you to manipulate documents in batches. For example, it allows you to move all documents with a keyword in the title to a new folder. Due to these command line tools, the project didn't require API licensing nor did it require any additional support from the Xerox professional service; thus, it saved time and money.

I think the area where we can improve DocuShare is for them to be more open on customizations. Customizing the look and feel is still quite difficult. Another key area is license management, as DocuShare is very sensitive when it comes to licenses. A clustered virtual server almost always suffers the fate of being unlicensed after it is transferred from one host to another, as the Machine ID is changed. Another downside is that there are only a few articles and tutorials found on the web. Here in the Southeast Asia region, Xerox is not really active in evangelizing for DocuShare.

Reports and integration with third-party applications can be improved. Customers usually ask for a specific report that allows them to make some statistics analysis that sometimes they need but DocuShare is not intended to do that. So, it is not available at this time and they have not been able to get these kind of reports such as reports by documents added in a specific collection by a user (automatic report), reports for content being searched, downloaded, viewed etc… Integrations with applications that uses databases are not able to do so because DocuShare does not use dynamical values in their fields of indexing.
