Likelihood to Recommend 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
Read full review Good for customizing an onboarding process to help ensure a smooth process, and setting up a contract for electronic signature in an easier way than customizing an editable PDF and uploading it to any number of eSign platforms. I've integrated Tallyfy, using Zapier, to Webmerge and Signnow, to get the result I was looking for, but there are plenty of ways Tallyfy can be implemented.
Read full review Pros Basic workflows are easy enough for casual users to set up and utilize. Cloud sync capability provides a great way to share documents with third parties and to use as a backup system for critical documents. Alfresco mobile app makes it easy for those on the road to access, approve and share documents. Folder rules are easy to set up and make assignment of metadata easier to automate. Read full review Easily to collect data to serve any number of purposes. We use it to collect data about our clients and to collect the data necessary to customize the contract and the customer experience. Tallyfy Webhooks then allow us to push that data out to other platforms, etc, so I've been able to create a solution that completes the document and sends it out for electronic signature with the click of a button... once the data has been collected. Create drop-downs, radio selections, checkboxes, short and long text paragraphs, etc. Even uploading documents and saving them directly to your favorite cloud storage, such as Drive or Dropbox. Manage the process from one team member to the next, depending on responsibility. Read full review Cons Alfresco Process Services and Alfresco Application Development Framework integration makes for best functionality/application of ECM. Use case alignment - Marketing content and documentation of specific business requirements and user stories being available as reference material/documentation. Integration with multiple silos for content. Read full review I'd like more control over the view. For example, some way to condense the view so that more data can be seen at once. Currently, in my opinion, it is just a little too large or blown up, but this may be a petty request. Read full review Likelihood to Renew 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.
Read full review Usability Alfresco Content Services' UI has never been its strength from the beginning. Therefore, rating it from a usability standpoint, I will not rank it high. However, Alfresco Content Services can easily be integrated with any application and leveraged as a backend CMS or DM system. With the new Angular-based UI approach, it's very much possible to create custom UI on top of it as required.
Read full review Support Rating 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
Read full review Implementation Rating 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.
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review I was very satisfied with the Tallyfy solution and did not seek out any alternative solutions.
Read full review Return on Investment 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 Read full review Streamlined our intake process, leaving far less room for error. Also expedited and improved the accuracy of the sales contract process and execution. Read full review ScreenShots
