Adobe Experience Manager Forms vs. Worldox

Helps in creating forms that we normally used to create in Excel. For this reason alone it's a huge upgrade. Plus is relatively easy to use once you know how to use it. Also, it works best for forms that you need to fill in.

Ease of navigation is probably the top seller for me. I might work on a dozen or more separate files per day and I need to be able to switch between files efficiently, especially when asked to find something quickly. Naming conventions are simple and easy to use. Searching for a document, even when there are hundreds, is pretty simple and straight forward.

• It enables me to quickly update and distribute forms that have been changed.
• The layout features help ensure that the forms look professional.
• The ability to preview what the final form will look like and how it will work, while still editing, is extremely helpful.

• Forced structure via hooking into every day applications and producing Worldox Open and Save constructs versus the standard application Open and Save menus.
• Extreme customization options including cabinets, folders, and document types.
• The indexing system is very useful for locating documents by name, body, date, etc.

• Biggest issue is the user friendliness for the designer. It is hard to get elements to do what you want if you are adding any sort of design to your form. In my case I make flyers which require not only the form fills, but also other elements like pictures and background design elements.
• The import from PSD or AI function does not work properly most of the time. If you create a document with lots of visual elements, your best bet is to convert as much of that as possible to a rasterized image and then popping that in as the background rather than trying to import elements. They come out very wonky, colors are lost in conversion, and the layout doesn't come over.

• Cloud product is a little lacking
• Little bit of learning curve out of the box
• For a larger organization, may need to dedicate a resource to manage the program

We chose this solution because it offered more flexibility , decreased our overall expenses and is what allowed us to execute our operations and business needs effectively. Adobe LiveCycle is a step above all of its competitors. Your only setback will be the initial training time investments.

Better due to the depth of document preservation options.

• Easier for employees to fill forms

• Greatly improved productivity for users via searching, favorites, and forced organization.
• Versioning and document preview can also improve productivity versus opening individual files.
• Can require a "revolutionary" change in the workflow as the application's Open and Save prompts are radically different than normal application usage.
