    Great for marking up depositions or pleadings with highlights, comments, and notes during case review.
    Supports Bates stamping, password protection, and other features often required for electronic filing.

    Built-in tools allow for quick and secure redaction of privileged or confidential information before sharing or filing. Less appropriate if you needed to work on real time collaboration or building complex form templates from scratch.

    I think CPQ had worked so well for our company because of the widespread nature of our associates and tracking orders that were being placed in multiple time zones. My team specifically needed a way of analyzing these orders to track our progress in real time and sort out any supply orders before they became an issue. If you are in a centralized location with a smaller team then this may not yield much use to you.

    • Leveraged automation to minimize headcount costs despite 10% year-over-year business growth, and enabled staff to focus on more strategic tasks.
    • Established a flexible CPQ system that scales on demand to easily accommodate the company’s multiple global locations.
    • Improved customer relations by reducing configuration time and allowing sales more time to meet with customers and close orders.

    Cons
    Foxit Software
    • I have a dual monitor setup at work and there are times when I wish that I could view pdf documents on both monitors at the same time. I have not yet figured out how to do that with FoxitPhantom as it appears to limit the user to displaying multiple pdf documents as separate tabs on the same screen. If dual screen is an option in the software, it needs to be more apparent.
    • I can't think of any other desired improvements. This software really does everything that I need it to do.

    • Significant setup time, cost, and maintenance. We have to use an implementation partner
    • Does not always play well with other software, even Oracle software. While this is improved and being further improved, that it was a third party acquisition means things sometimes require a little extra care
    • Additional setup documentation and first walkthroughs would be helpful, especially if it was all in one place

    Because very few editors are so easy to use and deploy backed by speed and performance. Foxit PDF is known for its speed and performance, allowing users to open and work with PDF files quickly and efficiently
    Foxit's user-friendly interface is easy to navigate and use, making it a popular choice for users who are new to PDF software.

    So far it is all good with BigMachines, looking for new features since Oracle acquisition has created a lot of expectations. We have outlined our limitations (out of box functionality) in our periodic customer successor advice meetings for a while, hope we get a resolution soon. Also, the BigMachines user license fee has increased a lot in the last three years.

    Usability
    Foxit Software
    Foxit PDF Editor works the way my brain works, so everything is where I expect it intuitively and that makes me hugely efficient. I love how all of the various features are laid out logically in tabs such as Fill & Sign, Organize, Form, etc. with the tools I expect to find where I expect to find them.

    The software UI can be as complex or as simple as you need it to be (depending on the business). It does require training others on quote configuration and the order in which to build out order positions prior to configuring a quote. Once users are trained;however, it is fairly straight-forward. The UI is still more static than other new wizard/drag-and-drop models, but it get's the job done

    Performance
    Foxit Software
    FoxitPhantom PDF integrates very well with the Microsoft Office products, which is where I found I use this the most. It performs about as well as can be expected, without any out of place latency. Whether it be merging, deleting, editing or rearranging pages, its performance holds up even with larger documents.

    It depends upon the day however there are so many failure points with online services, including our internet service, that this is probably closer to 9 with the latest version

    Support Rating
    Foxit Software
    I haven't personally had interaction with the customer support from FoxitPhantom, however based on conversations I have had with members in the organization, I was given positive feedback. Their website has a lot of information and tutorials. If you need to contact them, they are quick to respond. User manuals are readily available.

    Some specific support personal was good and fixed some problems fast using proper solutions. But when one of them went to sleep when we had critical issues and they do unreported commits to our production environment which caused issues and they were hiding it?? you can not give more than a two (maybe even that is too much). They also failed to add a feature for us which also bring the grade down.

    Implementation Rating
    Foxit Software

    It was a much more technical implementation than we thought. It involved much more code.

    Future releases have made and will make administering the tool easier.

    EDL consulting had one good developer, but when he was moved off, they were horrible to work with.

    The BMI sales team does a “BOA” or a “Business Operation Assessment” which is extremely valuable, not only for them to scope an implementation and get more reach within the organization, but it is also a documentation of business process that most organizations don’t have. It highlights inefficiencies and allows for correction during implementation.

    Having a dedicated team (in-house) for implementation is key

    I would say that when you want to get a bigger share of the market and take business from long time consolidated applications like Acrobat, you really need to try harder and give something more to the user to be able to change their mind and switch to Foxit. In our case licensing was an important factor and at the beginning we had a small learning curve with users asking how to open PDF files and what was that orange icon. The truth is that we as users accepted the new software happily because simply said: it does the job. After using Foxit I would not go back to Acrobat, I like better the connectivity, the simplicity and the way it manages the tabs.

    Oracle engagement is ahead. They are active in the development of the tool and provide great support after implementation. They also listen to their customers and offer opportunities to feedback and provide input through activities like the customer advisory board forum.

    Return on Investment
    Foxit Software
    • We have cut our mailed AR by over 60% by exporting to foxit and emailing.
    • We have cleared an entire room to be used as additional office space by scanning in old documents.
    • The feature that allows you to directly type onto PDFs has increased our quality control by allowing us to highlight or add notes to important info.

    • Increased Sales Rep efficiency. Being able to create multiple quotes ACCURATELY and quickly was a game changer.
    • Large implementation time. It's a little difficult to fit BMI into a SCRUM style build, with multiple working models and prototypes of all 3 simultaneously.
    • A larger fee for licensing and implementation cost. ROI wouldn't be realized in the first year.
