Dashpivot - By Sitemate vs. Oracle WebCenter Content

-Great replacement to filling manual forms. Helps digitise the entire process and save loads of time - Can be easily customised to your needs - Very simple and effective user interface - Great team behind Dashpivot. Always available to solve your needs. - Can easily analyse information in the filled forms. Though the analytics can be further improved

If your company is large and uses other Oracle products, Oracle WebCenter Content is probably a worthwhile investment. It integrates well with other Oracle applications and has the potential to help automate some of your existing processes. If you do not use other Oracle products, I would say there are better alternatives out there that are probably more user-friendly and cost effective.

• Manages photos via the use of tags
• It's intuitive, so even a user who has basic computer skills can utilize it.

• To send the induction template to every sub contractor to fill out and send back to us before entering site. Once we have the basic information we then can do the induction and sign off after completing the induction. Each induction could generate a number and it could form a list of names to a number on a register.
• Site safety audit. If we could carry over a problem to create a list that has to get signed off ones done. That would be very handy.
• Every one of our files generated is to be able to be re detected back on our own business server.

• Any images in the emails sent by suppliers (supplier logos in the signature) are treated as invoices by WebCenter Content software.
• We have an invoice with 4 lines and each line has its own project manager. Ideally, each invoice line should be sent for approval to respective project managers. However, WebCenter Business Process management was sending all the lines to all project managers.
• The user experience of Oracle WebCenter Content can be drastically improved. It is not up to the mark.

I could NEVER go back to life before Dashpivot.

The challenges with converting to a completely new system create quite a barrier to switching to anything else. If we find another system that offers guaranteed improvements to the user interface -- as well as as a more coherent set of options for data interchanges with current and future enterprise data sources -- we would be more interested in swithing to that new product. Of course, the expense in purchasing competitor system, along with the costs of migrating all current content, along with retooling all existing workflows in place, would be carefully weighed against the benefits incurred from a switch-over.

It is so simple. I put off getting an online system for sooooo long because I dreaded the thought of getting a new system, having to set it all up and having to teach everyone how to use it. I also envisaged me being the port of call every time it stopped working or people didn't know what they were doing. I now wish I had done it a long time ago. The set up was so basic. I had 45 minutes of training over the phone in front of my PC and I was set to go! By the end of the day, I had already gone from "I'm just going to start off with Site Diaries and implement everything else gradually" to "this is bloody amazing, everything is now on Dashpivot and everyone is using it!" We converted our entire site and internal systems over to Dahpivot by Site Mate in the space of a day! True story.

It meets all required functionality requirements -- but handles none of them in an exceptional manner

At the beginning of my use of the phone application, it did not support the Arabic language I contacted customer service and my request was taken seriously, and within a short period of time, a phone application was updatet to support the Arabic language

Implementation was super easy and dare I say fun! I thoroughly enjoyed the implementation process. We all got excited coming up with suggestions and ideas for what we could implement next.

Some onsite audit tools are hard to use, they do not transfer well to a mobile platform. Dashpivot is easy to read and use on any mobile device. Additionally other platforms make the document build cumbersome, DashPivot is simple and easy to develop or copy new tools.

We were looking for an automated invoice processing solution. As we are already on Oracle ERP, it made sense for us to go for Oracle Fusion payables with Oracle WebCenter Content. We have a good relationship with Oracle and Oracle promised us priority support during the time of implementation.
