    Easy integration with the external APIs Workflows can be invoked via REST call Wonderful swagger documentation for process REST APIs REST, MULE, CAMEL, Google Drive, and Box features are available with Alfresco Process Services The micro-service version deployment should be well documented and needs improvement

    If all that you need is a simple read function for pdf documents, Sejda does fine. If you want to be able to highlight items or convert the pdf document into a Word document for editing and revisions, this tool does not provide strong functionality.

    As per the current market and the line of products that are available for content and document management system, Alfresco is a very good option compared to other systems in terms of features and cost. Plus the community support is great. Also since the product is open source, it can be extended or understood in a better way.

    Usability
    Hyland
    The UI is very intuitive, most of our users figure out how to use the platform by themselves, so there's not much training needed.
    You can upload files by using the web drag and drop, WebDAV, FTP, and more.
    Most of the platform already works as-is so you can just deploy it using Docker and it's mostly ready to go.

    I am not big fan of Alfresco Content Services' support; it works on its own speed and sometimes it becomes challenging to achieve business needs. However, I appreciate regular delivery of security patches and updates

    Process was relatively smooth and overall, downtime minimal. MSI was very responsive to our needs and made the transition easier than it otherwise might have been.

    All software has some pros and some cons. Alfresco has some good pluses, and suits our environment very well. It fit perfectly in the place that we are working on. That is why we decided to go with this software. Overall, the kind of content management that needs to be done in an organization is what would determine which software to use.

    Adobe has more functionality, but there have been some concerns about ongoing support. Sejda was seen as a viable alternative for the majority of our users, who only need to read pdf documents, and not do any revisions or markups.

    Return on Investment
    Hyland
    • Instant document lookup - No paper files to mail which saves in all areas of postage, truck delivery, physical storage warehouse space, printing, etc
    • No longer losing important documents - Previously with paper files things would go missing and those could be costly reports/assessments.
    • Ability to secure documents and provide access to only those who should be allowed to see that content

    • Filled the gap from our prior pdf product
    • Slightly less capital investment, to my understanding
    • Users have not been happy with the reduced functionality
