Considered Both Products
DocuWare
Chose DocuWare
We actually moved from DocuWare to Plate IQ because Plate is restaurant specific and shares many item codes, SKU #'s, etc from major vendors. However, we continue to use DocuWare for other data management because it was so useful to us while we used it for AP.
Chose DocuWare
Managing documents and processes are very similar. The added value of Docuware Cloud is seen in the administrative management and the investment cost.
OpenText eDOCS
Chose OpenText eDOCS
We used other software tools for management and found them to be somewhat similar to OpenText but the customer service provided by them is what made us go with them
Chose OpenText eDOCS
I have not used another electronic content management platform in my current role. OpenText eDOCS is a cost-effective and reliable product that has given the best services. The product operations have highly enhanced my team to finish many projects within the set deadline. It …
Chose OpenText eDOCS
At the office, we used to manage our documents in Google Drive within a shared folder. While yes, it allows for easy sharing of documents, it has nowhere near the number of functions OpenText eDOCS provides. While Google Drive is not a document manager per se, that's what we …
Chose OpenText eDOCS
Microsoft SharePoint is a simpler alternative for OpenText eDOCS. It can be used for the same objectives, i.e. to share and manage content, search for information, and collaborate across business areas. Integration with other applications and platforms can be rather limited, in …
Chose OpenText eDOCS
More or less all work the same. But for our project, we choose OpenText eDocs.
Chose OpenText eDOCS
Although I occasionally use other document managers, OpenText remains my favorite, as it does an excellent job of managing content and documents in a variety of scenarios. And also integration with the cloud is essential nowadays. The other tools don't integrate the interface …

Likelihood to Recommend
We can use Docuware Cloud as a checks and balances program for our application processing in our data department. This is a time saver and allows us to access information at our multiple locations, as well as we have clients in various states. We can assign documents to others throughout the processing of applications, and this has allowed us to keep better track of our documentation with clients.

Support Rating
We use a third-party company to assist in the support process, and they have been great to work with. Quick turn around on issues and almost immediate communication concerning support tickets. They are more than willing to consult with our IT partners as well, which is a must for our business.
