Ideagen Mail Manager vs. OpenText Content Suite Platform

Ideagen OnePlace Solutions is well suited to a legal matter management system with shared access, but less useful for saving to personal OneDrives. It can sometimes suggest irrelevant folders within personal OneDrives in preference of more commonly used shared folders. However this can be narrowed with a search.

Your organisation has to support the type of document and records management needed for this to work. In an organisation that only needs to store documents and maybe share with many different parties, this might not be the best-suited software. In a large organisation with stringent document and records management policies, this suite is well suited. It makes management of documents across business units easy to manage and control.

• The user interface and configurability of that interface lack a lot of flexibility and modern tools.
• There needs to be stronger and more powerful integration to electronic forms and workflow capabilities which are core to modern ECM.
• Management of audit and content history needs to be modernized and made more dynamic and sustainable.

The staff is comfortable with it and I doubt they'd change at this point.

• I used OpenText nearly every day and I never had any performance issues that I can recall. That said, it's not terribly fast either.

OpenText has an outstanding support and knowledge base. All problems which couldn't be solved by us (high complexity cases) were promptly resolved and the resolution also shared with us.

No, it's pretty easy to implement and use.

OpenText comes in different versions and you are able to choose depending on your departmental or organizational needs. In terms of functionality and capabilities, it was able to offer more value as it checked all the boxes in terms of long-time retentions, reporting capabilities, physical objects, and searches are great.

• Replaces the need for a non-365 system. Our previous provider was far more expensive (monthly price was the same as Ideagen OnePlace Solutions annual for our team)
