OpenText Content Suite Platform vs. PDF Studio

Great for content management and records even for organizations whose staff are not much experienced in the technical backgrounds as it's easy to use and no previous knowledge on HTML is required. It is great for storing invoices and payment proofs and for organizations dealing with global clients for general use documents.

For Linux users it is without a doubt the best option and the most developed so far.

• Document Management is being done well since it allows you to put in a corporate folder structure that applies to the business unit you currently work in.
• Records Management works well in this organisation as it allows you to classify the document according to the file plan, as well as manage it according to the retention schedule for tat file plan.
• The ability to collaborate on files works really well. You can share with users within your group, as well as allow other users access to the files for either read access to read/write access.
• Access control of the folder and even individual files allows you to ensure only necessary people can have the right type of access. This is especially welcome in the government environment where document management is of utmost importance.

• Editing PDF pages easily.
• Organizing PDF pages quickly.
• Adding comments to particular items within a PDF.

• 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.

• I would like to be able to generate indexes of the documents that I am adding to a file.
• To be able to scan a file and convert it from a PDF simply having the scan parameters.

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

As I answered before, the graphical interface is the best developed of the options that exist for Linux.

I never had any issues with access internally or via VPN. But, the response via VPN, was a bit slow.

• 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.

Anytime I have had questions they have been able to be found in the forums of PDF Studio.

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

Having used OpenText Content Suite for a long time, I can say it stands the competition. It offers many versions which is unlike many products in its category. Also, while it is not affordable, I believe the cost is justified considering what a business can achieve with this software.

PDF Studio doesn't involve an expensive subscription, plus has all the features without the cluttered UI. It is intuitive to use and I prefer it to Adobe Acrobat, Foxit, PDF XChange, AcePDF, and others. Minimal design with refined tools. Frankly, I am just relieved to have a perpetual license for a product that just works.
