    We currently have a scenario where we print 1,000 documents per month, one for each resident. Because of DocuWare's ability to process barcodes, we dump that pdf to DocuWare and it files it into each resident's account. We then run scripting to add each of those documents to our cloud-based property management software. Saves having to process one document at a time per resident.

    Ethos Integration is a work in progress. Some API's are still not available under this framework. However, it has the advantage of being an abstraction layer on top of the database, supports the publish-subscribe model. Since some Banner 9 modules still do not support the direct SAML2 connection, Ethos Identity (EIS Server) is a necessity for SSO.

    Cons
    DocuWare
    • No active directory integration, this doubles up user management.
    • No Outlook integration. Would be nice to be able to interact with Docuware from email.
    • No mobile application. We have many remote users that would benefit from this.

    • Operational reporting: This does not replace or provide an easy platform for operational reports or warehousing. It would be nice if they provided a full stack.
    • Learning curve: Training and documentation are minimal.

    Part of our issues could be from the original set up, but also because the system does not allow flexibility.

    Support Rating
    DocuWare
    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.

    Support from Ellucian for Ethos Integration was generally good. The help in building Ethos was adequate, and resolving issues were handled professionally. However, for Ethos Identity module, the support in building the cluster failover architecture was lacking. After over a month of open engagement, the issue still has not been resolved.

    Managing documents and processes are very similar. The added value of Docuware Cloud is seen in the administrative management and the investment cost.

    We have not used any other product similar to this, but for us, it made sense that the first product we tried was made by the company who developed our ERP system because they know the system inside/out. Solutions made by other companies that only look into documentation does not mean they would be able to create a product that could do such integration well.

    • Our ROI is nonexistent at this time as we are still implementing. However, the minimal cost signifies that it will be a significant help.
