It is an ideal program for the portfolio of already consolidated clients, for large financial companies with a high professional profile. In the cases that I do not recommend it, it is for small and medium-sized financial companies, with a portfolio of clients in training, since the cost-benefit ratio is not attractive.
Legal team using this product helps the team to better access documents securely within their email app (Outlook) and the user experience to control the document is excellent and being able to make it private and isolate confidential documents during a court session is very important and iManage has met our requirements. Also, being able to access instantly from users' workstation/laptop devices is very important and iManage plugin for outlook has satisfied our Business requirements.
The graphics could be developed in a better way, they should be more modern, friendly and show the information in more detail.
Develop a module in the application that allows personalization by the user, giving him the possibility to manage a tool made by him to suit him. Moves the APPS Mobile concept to the design of the program.
Although the tool is well integrated with Microsoft, you can think of a development of integration with social networks or mobile developments, both users, and customers.
Develop a more economical and simple version, aimed at small and medium enterprises, with small client portfolios
Complicated setup. On initial installation it is cumbersome to configure on each workstation just to connect to service.
Does not enforce structure. Once setting up structure, users can save outside of iManage Work and make their own files and folders under pre-configured system.
Outlook is a finicky software, access to iManage Work depends on Outlook, nothing against iManage Work, but it sometimes has issues caused by the application it relies on.
It is a complementary tool of the main CRM, which provides an adequate management of the documentation, reports, files that are derived from the business activity. It offers adequate levels of security for small businesses, the implementation is easy compared to other tools, it is easy to use, it offers adequate file capacity. In the future it can be strengthened with access to the cloud, development of apps and integration with other platforms.
As it has already been said before, it is a simple implementation program, easy to use, with a short learning curve, with a friendly interface, a good design, a security according to the type of company and with the possibility of personalization. It provides an accessible cost tool to improve business management and document management.
Until now, technical support has not been required to a large extent, but for this question three variables must be taken into account; The level of complexity of the implementation of the tool, the courses, tutorials, training and learning curve of the users, and finally the technical support as such. This tool has implementation attributes and ease of use, reducing the incidence of technical support.
We had an issue a few years ago where a plug-in of some sort which allowed the viewing of PDFs got updated and then whenever some people previewed PDFs in iManage then Outlook would crash. My outlook crashed over 20 times in a single day once. It was a pretty bad time. I know one of our information technology professionals in another office worked non-stop with iManage to get it resolved, and it seemed like they did take the issue pretty seriously.
Check the seller's website, read the technical specifications of the product, calculate the investment in personnel, software and hardware, validate that the management modules document is what they are looking for. Project the integration of the program with the systems that the company manages. Read many reviews and note the most important points of the user experiences.
Basically, my main experience is focused on Dynamics, I have worked with similar tools developed in a particular way by the firms for which I have worked. They are monitoring tools developed by the system and planning area. For the internal use of the company. Obviously, this is a leading international program.
I have viewed several other document management system software, but iManage was already installed at my company before I started working here. For us, I think this is the right solution. Companies with a smaller number of employees or smaller document collections could find some other options that might suite their needs and budget better. We definitely want an on premises solution that provides all the security, tracking, searching, and integration issues iManage offers. Many of the other solutions have adopted cloud technologies only at this point and we are not ready to consider cloud storage due for our sensitive documents at this point.
Without speaking directly of figures, on the positive side of the implementation of the program is tied to the time of learning the tool. In practice, it is much easier to learn by professionals, making the implementation time short, as well as, minimizes the margin of error in the initial handling of the program.
As it is a tool for easy learning and with a reduction in the margin of error due to the learning curve, it allows working only with the technical support offered by the provider, without having the need to create an internal department of attention to the user, which lowers costs.
