Concord vs. OpenText XM Fax

For my role as a recruiter, this tool is more than sufficient. I am able to quickly draft multiple offer letters, request approval from our legal team, then share directly with candidates to sign. This provides a great, organized candidate experience. I don't necessarily have an idea of a scenario where it would be less appropriate.

XMedius is well suited for a large business with hundreds of fax numbers. Could you imagine trying to manage 1000 individual fax machines? That would be a nightmare! Instead it's all in one neat place

• Templates are easy to create and utilize.
• Concord has its internal e-signature tool.
• Concord can group by template, active, in progress, etc. and color codes the same.

• Goes right to my mobile
• Can respond immediately with a forward of the attachment
• Don't have to save to my desktop faxes.

• User management has been and still is, a pain point for us. We operate over a dozen entities and for the most part, anyone with access to Concord on our team has the same permissions across all entities. We must manage users one-by-one so onboarding + offboarding can be tedious.
• The analytics are basic. I wish we could slice and dice and say "Show me only contracts tagged with X tag".

Incentivized

• Error logs include error codes, but sometimes it is hard to understand what it means. Either a shared documentation or detailed error log might help end users better to detect any issue on fax requests.

Concord is extremely user friendly and saves me so much time! How else would I be able to manage all of the contracts for 9 different agencies all by myself?!?

I gave it a five because it was the closest to a neutral response. I have not had issues with Concord and have not had a reason to contact support, so I don't have an accurate opinion here. From my conversations with our legal team, it seems they have been able to work with the support team at Concord to get any potential issues resolved in a timely manner.

Concord is more user friendly and gives the user the power to change settings, change workflows, and customize to meet their own needs without having to wait on customer service or support to make the changes for them. In fact, I was able to do most of our implementation myself just the way I wanted it, and it was easy! There aren't any hidden costs or fees- you simply pay for the number of licenses you need and get all the support you need for free (if you ever need it!). And by the way, the storage is unlimited so there are no worries about maxing out on how many contract or documents you can have!

The XM Fax Connector that is available for the Xerox MFP devices make faxing from XM Fax simple and convenient.
