OpenText Documentum vs. Templafy

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.

Great use case for TEmplafy is when you have a lot of assets in a system, that you want to be able to slice and dice and export a custom report of what is meaningful to you. They are set up so you can make selections to only surface what you need and feel very well served. It is not ideal, at this time, if you want to look at many separate systems and merge them all. It requires a lot of work to customize and tailor to fit this more curated need

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.
