Overall Satisfaction with Docuware Cloud

Docuware is being used to document and track our purchasing workflows. The approval process was the main reason we implemented Docuware. We needed a means of tracking who was approving expenditures.
  • Workflow management is fairly intuitive.
  • Basic document management functions are handled well.
  • Easy to administrate.
  • No active directory integration, this doubles up user management.
  • No Outlook integration. Would be nice to be able to interact with Docuware from email.
  • No mobile application. We have many remote users that would benefit from this.
  • Purchasing approval control and monitoring. Allows us to keep tighter hold of the budget.
  • Had to spend considerably more than expected. We needed to hire a developer to build integrations.
  • PDM
Docuware was not as robust.
A small business in need of document management would be able to get by with Docuware. A large business would be better off spending the money for something more advanced that integrates with enterprise software.
