OpenText Content Suite Platform vs. QT9 QMS

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.

I like using QT9 because it's easy to use, easy to train others and is very user friendly. QT9 has all that we need to be successful. Our data tracking, corrective actions, documentation tracking and the reporting of that data is extremely easy to use and implement. We also think that the EC process is very useful for updating designs

• 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.

• Tracks document reviews well.
• Makes creating NCP's and CARs easier than paper.
• Tracks and maintains calibration records well.

• 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.

• Better graphics/visually appealing and easier to navigate
• It would be nice to have a chat feature
• The interface with our vendors/customers isn't always smooth.

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

ease of use and implementation. user defined fields allow customization. exporting information into excel permits the use of pivot tables to analyze data and create reports. In geneneral, the main features required by our QMS are in the software

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

QT9 QMS has always been available. Even in instances where there would be an update, notifications would be sent out to provide a heads up to the users. Any issues where QT9 QMS would have problems, glitches, or run slow, support was always available to take care of the issues.

• 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.

I give it a 10 as the information is always readily available. As for speed, For the most part, loading of the sometimes takes a little longer than others. There are occasional times that it does run a little slow, but when that happens, the support team has always been there to help.

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.

The usability and clarity of documentation and tracking is fantastic. Calibration is always open and trackable as well.

I had online training which was wonderful. The training was open and inviting to ask questions. I came on just after QT9 QMS was accepted in the company. SO I was in almost at the ground floor.

Training was open and was able to ask any questions. This provided clarity in all the areas that I would use. There has been training readily offered by the QT9 company and provided opportunities to grow our understanding of the software and additional ways that we could utilize it.

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

It went well and is used daily.

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.

We have not used any other systems Prior to QT9 QMS our systems were all manual and down through excel and email.

We have sites in many different areas within and outside of our current state. The use of QT9 QMS allows all sites to be in one database so everyone has the same information. The rollout of the software was rather easy as online training could be used for all sites and provided an excellent tool for all areas.

not sure if this is something other than the professionalism of the individuals that I worked with, but the people were Very professional. Always able to answer questions and if they did not have answers they would find out what they are and then follow up.
