Likelihood to Recommend Cisco business edition are well suited for the environment where we need regular communication as they are easy to dial and has got great features. The product is well suited for both small business and large enterprises. Speed dial, good voice quality are key features of Cisco phones. They are not well suited in scenarios where we do not have LAN connectivity or internet. Sometimes we may face latency and jitteriness which is not good.

Read full review The full text searching feature, once implemented properly, is incredibly powerful. Integrates seamlessly with Outlook to reduce the number of pieces of software you need turning at any given time. Filing is relatively quick most of the time. Read full review Cons More cloud based services need to be added to the default service package. Companies frequently require a small contact center within the UC environment. It would be nice to see a build it contact center in the box. It would be nice to see some advanced AI based services (IVR voice recognition service) in the BE7K application list. Call recording should be also built in. Read full review 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. Read full review Support Rating 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.
Read full review Alternatives Considered I've used 220s and 240s too, but it takes a lot of time to set them up, a lot of time to download the iso files, and set up of datastores. 7k saves the engineer a lot of pre-build assessment and evaluation time. Gets a lot done in a lot less time, returns are a happy engineer and a happier customer.
Read full review 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.
Read full review Return on Investment It has allowed for mostly smooth communication from department to department/office to office. It allows for saved phone # / last contact to appear quickly. It has allowed for safety warnings/announcements to emerge all across every office so that everyone within the organization is on the same page about events when they occur. Read full review A bit pricey but worth it once you know how to use it. It makes any document sharing easy and seamless which is priceless. Read full review ScreenShots
