LiquidOffice to Deliver effective Information Collection

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The main reason we took up OpenText LiquidOffice was because we had acquired several OpenText solutions and had established a good relationship with the brand. But over the years, LiquidOffice as a form-builder solution has lived up to Opentext's consistency despite the competition. LiquidOffice has been an integral tool for data collection through e-forms from our audiences. LiquidOffice is essential in helping me deliver a rich digital customer experience from collected insights.

Pros

  • The WYSIWYG form builder has highly configurable web forms
  • It processes even third-party external web forms
  • It integrates well with OpenText Core to improve customer interactions.

Cons

  • You have less routing control while processing third party external web forms unless it's an OpenText solution

Return on Investment

  • We collect authenticated data from our users and audiences to improve our services.
  • The surveys give us a better understanding of our markets.

Great form builder

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

OpenText LiquidOffice is a very verstile e-form and workflow tool, which in theory plugs into most things thanks to the fact it wasn't built with any particular setup \ infra \ CMS in mind. OpenText LiquidOffice stood out during the product selection process because of this, as it was deemed the potentially easiest implementation across our vast online platform estate.

Pros

  • Adapting to varied environments
  • Javascript support
  • Easy to use form designer

Cons

  • Very old UI
  • Feels like an archaic system
  • Reporting isn't great

Return on Investment

  • Pretty high form interaction rate
  • Hard to determine where a users is dropping off
  • Proved too limited in context of event submissions
