    I was not involved in the selection process but MediaBin seems to be more of a "repository" than a "file-folder" system. It also displays thumbnail previews of files making it useful for sorting through visual elements, like photos or PDFs. I am not certain how it compares with …

    If you want to share (or access) the most current version of any content MediaBin can be useful for ensuring that you are getting the right thing - assuming you can find it. Another useful functionality - OS sharing or exporting different file formats for a file. Often PDF works, but sometimes you need a file in a different image format and the software can allow that.

    Cons
    OpenText
    • Search is often a chellenge - using the file name or "item number" doesn't always bring up the expected results.
    • Navigation is not intuitive in places - finding different functions
    • The export function is powerful but not always clear, several options seem like the same thing. e.g. Do I need FTP ot HTTP download? Do I care?

    Return on Investment
    OpenText
    • This software is more of a tool that resides in the background, so it is difficult to measure ROI.
    • One negative impact is the challenges of managing access and thus limiting productivity when people can't access things.
    • Another negative impact is the poor search functionality reducing productivity in finding the correct files when needed.
