Overall Satisfaction with Alfresco Enterprise Content Management

The main intent of Alfresco is to implement a unified ECM system and promote the idea of a paperless office. Alfresco was recommended to most of my company clients due to its robustness and its compatibility with Ephesoft scanning management. Also, the cloud and on-premises integration is a great way for both on and off site sync.

Moreover, it's cheaper than Microsoft SharePoint.
  • Document management i.e. it promotes a paperless office
  • Cloud solution i.e. ability to access content outside your work zone
  • Collaborative web content
  • It also brings content and process together
  • Ability to scan directly using Alfresco scan features
  • Ability to integrate with social network platform.. i.e. upload and share to Facebook or Instagram
  • Interface should be much more user-friendly and light
  • Reduce the stress of [making] several copies of paper
  • It transferred the captured document to the proper department
  • Reduce employment rate
  • Alfresco is cheap.
  • Easier to use - user-friendly.
  • It's robust and has the ability to integrate with other software.
  • It's an open source i.e. a developer or programmer can tweak to map to your company's taste.
  • Content sharing easier than other platforms, it'ss also a unified collaborative document management that has most of what the company needs for proper record keeping and cycle
MS SharePoint, Dropbox, CTERA Enterprise File Sync & Share
Alfresco is more suited for almost all working environment that deals with paper, companies which are trendy, vibrant media, techie, courier logistics companies and insurance companies as well. Irrespective of the environment, it less appropriate to introduce the usage to people above 40 who are less interested in any form of new technology development.
