Ex Libris Alma is a unified library services platform for managing print, electronic, and digital materials in a single interface. As a completely cloud-based service, Alma boasts a cost-effective library management solution. Ex Libris is a Clarivate company since the December, 2021 acquisition.
I think Ex Libris Alma is well suited to any library, including those with multiple locations, that is looking for a back-end collections management solution and a front-end discovery website for patrons (Ex Libris Primo) that will play together seamlessly and require little work to synchronize. It might not be the best fit for libraries that regularly evaluate their collections in depth using digital information that is not provided in Alma's own analytics package. I would recommend carefully evaluating what Alma's analytics can do vs. your library's needs before committing, but otherwise it does the job well!
When you conduct an advanced search, there are some of the data points that simply won't export to a .csv, making external analytic work tedious or impossible
UI is not the friendliest - there is a lot of clicking on subtabs to get the information you want
