OpenText Documentum vs. QT9 QMS

Documentum is best used in medium to large institutions that can afford it, have alternate solutions for web publishing, and who have either in-house developers or can hire good Documentum developers (not the ones who know Java but do not understand ECM). It is, in my opinion, the best heavy duty ECM solution out there, assuming OT is not gutting it as we speak. That is my only hesitation to not giving it a 10, OpenText is an unknown quantity in this and I worry that they will only support Documentum until they have figured out how to fill the gap between Documentum and OT and then offer a migration path to OT with a Documentum sunsetting as an incentive.

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

• Records management: Compared to other content management systems, this provides a efficient and scalable solution. It gives lot of flexibility in managing the content as Records or Legal holds.
• Workflow system has external plugins to connect with FAX, Mail, Database and FTP servers etc. which gives an option to integrate with any system with documentum.
• Creation of websites and maintenance is easy. Content authors can create the pages with effective mechanism.

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

• WDK framework has been the biggest drawbacks from the application speed point of view, as well as client complexity and not so natural look and feel. Yes, with the latest releases much of these features are improved.
• EMC is very expensive to buy, own and support, where some products require many dependent Docuemntum products to be installed to work at its best.

• 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.

Stability is a key factor as well as its flexibility. Also, any organization that deploys Documentum will have made a significant investment in terms of time and money, so not renewing its commitment can come with a significant cost. That said, the decision to deploy Documentum initially should come only after extensive evaluation, knowing that once deployed it will likely remain the platform of choice.

document tracking and updating has been clearer.

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

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 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.

Support is better than with ECM, but could use some improvement.

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.

It went well and is used daily.

At the time it was purchased it was one of the best, most robust solutions available on the market.

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.

• After this product, the client is able to manage content security and due to it, the client is able to use the business process, and this really reduces effort and increases the profit in business.
