OpenText MediaBin vs. PIMworks

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.

PIMworks is a very good eCommerce based Product information management software. I have had a very good experience with it so far. Using PIMworks, it is very straightforward to define workflows and also create channel complaint content. The automatic content enrichment feature is very good as it fetches top-performing content from multiple web sources and enriches our overall product and catalog content.

• 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?

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 regard to version history.

• 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.
