    This is a great platform for a small but quickly growing organization. It works well out of the box without a lot of bells and whistles but can be configured for specific needs. Migrating "legacy" processes, data and culture requires a lot of up front training but is worth the effort. Customer support is top-notch, and a single administrator can manage multiple applications

    M‑Files is great for companies with multiple locations. Drive letters can become cumbersome to use and collaborate with colleagues and M‑Files fills that gap. The check out/check in system is great and allows only one editor at a time. This can be good and bad depending on the situation.

    Pros
    Intellect
    • The applications are linked to each other so that activities can be shared, collaborated and escalated in one platform.
    • Applications are sufficient "out of the box" but can be configured easily with its intuitive Design tools.
    • Users can go to their personal dashboard to stay on top of their tasks across multiple applications and monitor status of activities in progress.
    • The workflow-based applications keep activities moving forward efficiently but following standard processes.

    • Reliable: Our M-Files system has only gone down one time (for a very short period of time) at the beginning of the two years that we have been with M-Files. Our previous vendor's system had so many downtimes that our IT Department had to assign an associate to work with me for sending out notifications to associates etc. With our last vendor, one day I came to work and only 60 of the 260 consent for surgery forms were available to our end users although they were visible to me as the Administrator but weren't showing up for the end-users!
    • Our M-Files system was created for us. It was created by working with developers to only have on our system what we required, and I must say, there were so many extra features that M-Files offered in our program that weren't available with our previous vendor. As mentioned previously, we can have two policies or forms visible to the end-user so one can be listed as "draft" or "training only" so our end users can read and use for training as we get ready to roll out a new medical record system. I can also preload policies and leave them in the working stage until they are approved and go back and publish them the day they are approved. The list goes on with so many great features.
    • Our end users would say the greatest asset of this product is the search function. It's amazing how fast it is. There are many ways to search out a form or policy which makes it a true asset for our associates.

    Cons
    Intellect
    • Although the configuration is a "no code" approach, there is a learning curve to effecting design changes.
    • The user guide documentation provided is OK for administrators but needs to be more user-friendly for general users.
    • Importing "legacy" data from existing processes can be cumbersome.

    • If you are new to Electronic Document Management, this can be a really difficult product to roll out. Since it is infinitely versatile, there are infinite ways to configure it wrong. I highly recommend the M-Files admin training offered by M-Files as it will set you in the right direction.
    • Many options are paid add-ons. So while you are not paying for what you don't need, many great features will come at a cost.
    • If you don't have a technical person on staff, this will be tricky to maintain. Not impossible. If your processes do not change, once setup it will be fine.

    M-files meets our almost all needs, we dont have other option to replace m-files. it saves lots, like Hardware because of Vault Feature means we can create many vaults (mini-servers) in m-files in other solutions we need more hardware for more installations.

    Usability
    Intellect
    There is always resistance to change, but users are finding Intellect QMS to exceed their expectations as we migrate from our legacy "island" Sharepoint-based processes. Training is actually easiest to do hands-on, and users can learn quickly and then help train others. Users appreciate the personal navigation dashboard and the familiarity of the interface from one application to another. The workflow-driven applications are intuitive and make the system easy to navigate for all levels of users, although the learning curves will vary. The "Design-Test-Live" approach facilitates the implementation of configuration changes suggested by users.

    It is a powerful system that can locate content fast and effectively. The system takes quite some time to setup initially. It can be hard for M-Files support to know how businesses operate and how they want to use the system in a way that works for them. The customization makes it great for companies to cater to their own needs. Once the system is set up in a way that makes sense for the business, the user experience is positive. There is room for improvement in the notifications, workflow, and support areas.

    I noticed some lagging with the integration with Microsoft Office but not so much that I would not use it. It has gotten better with updates. to be fair the issues were when Office 2013 first came out.

    Usually when I need help from them I got support and it was very good and focused to solve my problem. I didn't have so many problems, but when used it worked. I just would like to have a support in my native language, but I can understand that sometimes is hard for the companies.

    The key insight is that the most important thing is to have a open mind. The application is easy to use, but if you have a company with different views and it is not aligned could be a huge problem. So the company transformation is required together with the application. Ensure to use as much as possible the capabilities of the application helps to have best ROI.

    The customization ability seemed to be a level above and easy to navigate and available options are constantly being reinvented. We have used OnBase for years and now desire to move away from this option for a number of reasons.

    Return on Investment
    Intellect
    • Users appreciate the time and effort saved by having all of the QMS functions connected and in one place, without having to rely on emails, Sharepoint links multiple modes of communication to keep track of their activities and responsibilities.
    • The no-code platform means we don't need IT support to maintain and configure the applications. One administrator was able to get the system launched and effective in just several weeks, with ongoing training and customization as users and applications are added.
    • Our organization was recently certified to ISO 9001:2015. Intellect QMS helped us to navigate internal and audits confidently and effectively.
