DocuWare vs. IT Glue vs. Joyfill

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.

It is best suited for an MSP but it is also best not suited for an MSP. It is well suited for folks with a minimal knowledge of a client and are attempting to learn what they can. Perhaps just bumbling about and can find the same thing consistently. At my particular work, we pay somebody full time to manage the system. I feel this is unnecessary.

Previously for any inspection we use any ordinary forms using pan and paper so with this method we doesn't get the report of the user and our inspection but with the help of Joyfill we are getting proper reports.

• OCR is very good
• Support
• Ease of use

• The UI has been set up perfectly, there is a sub-menu for every possible bit of information you wish to store.
• There are a number of excellent features such as the autohiding passwords and quick searching from anywhere on the page.
• The recent addition of the IT Glue is also an excellent feature, it features online self-guided courses to become a certified IT Glue user.
• You can create and group custom documents together.
• IT Glue can be integrated with a number of platforms such as Autotask.
• IT Glue also integrates well with N-Central to automatically populate the configurations tab with all the relevant Workstation, Printer, and Server information making client on-boarding a breeze.

• Creating Customized Form.
• Data collection or storage via phone.
• Access the report from anywhere.

• 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.

• Like many other MSPs we had the majority of our SOPs and KBs in Word docs. The best case scenario would be to simply drop those files directly into ITG without having to import them into the ITG documentation format. The import function is so broken as to not be an option because it completely ruins formatting and tends to drop images. Thus we have to manually copy/paste text and individually upload each image.
• They marketed the product as having true branding but that is stretching the truth. SSL is not an option so client-facing documents will give security errors in browsers. ITG does not appear to be concerned about this even though security is a major concern for all MSPs.

• Glitchy here and there with updates.
• Cannot annotate on photos.
• Sometimes syncing conflicts.

Docuware has become a vital part of our organization.

Overall IT Glue meets every need that we need it to. IT is easy to use and convenient and we have not had very many issues with it since the inception. I would easily recommend it to anyone who needs this software.

Incentivized

Fairly intuitive for average users.

The interface is excellent and very easy to use. As long as the text you input into the system can be easily read, you will have no problem finding it with all the different categories offered. Sometimes, the slider on the right can blend in with dark backgrounds, making it hard to see.

Other than a few access outages, ITGlue is always up and available to us. Their ability to export Playbook, that contain our customers data, and securely send those over to them is amazing and are produced pretty fast. We have IT Glue linked with several other services and software and we have not found that it slows anything down.

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.

Incentivized

No problems with support when needed it. Their answers on how to handle DR/BC situations when ITG is down are not stellar. They don't seem to get the business risks of their suggestions to just give the xls backup to engineers (aka give all passwords of ALL clients to engineers in an unencrypted flat-file where it is easy to copy, print, etc.)

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

We chose IT Glue particularly because it's tailored to IT documentation. As a managed IT service provider, it's perfectly in line with what we were looking for. The flexibility and tagging in particular were the kind of features we were looking for. Confluence is very good, and can be used for a number of things, not just IT documentation, but IT Glue shines for that.

• Allowed us to do multiple hours less data entry per client/per week.
• ROI very quickly.
• Package is customizable so you can scale as needed.

Incentivized

• We regret the purchase and have received little, if any, ROI.
• [In my expereience], the main feature we hoped to get ROI from (MyGlue) was so terrible we were embarrassed to roll it out to our clients.
• Because [I feel] it is slow and clunky, staff find quicker ways to access needed data so this is not used as much as we would have liked.

• We are now getting reports of the surveys and inspection which we doesn't get earlier by manual forms.
• We are also now collection or taking signatures from any users in any document online without using any third party application or tool
