Overall Satisfaction with eXo Platform

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We're discovering this platform. Our goal was to replace all DMS and CMS systems, using only a collaborative platform with a complete set of functionalities. After few weeks, the feedback is quite good, it seems easy to use and personalize. Reviewers can see all comments in an easy way, resulting in less duplication and in a collaborative feel. Overall project management is made easier and easy to afford. The UI is quite easy to manage and is very intuitive.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Very good UI and Look and Feel
Collaboration oriented
Resource sharing between users is improved

Cons

It's not so simple to create sub-sites
User management is quite tricky
Overall configuration is not easy

Return on Investment

Increased collaboration
Easy versioning
Easy sharing

Alternatives Considered

We selected this product firstly because it's easy to use for end-users, even if it's not so simple to configure from an administrative point of view. Managing and tracking overall activities is quite easy and it's also possible to have an immediate vision of everything that is done on the platform. Users feel confident and are encouraged to share resources.

Other Software Used

MS SharePoint, Google Drive, Dropbox for Business

Likelihood to Recommend

In our scenario, we're using it for DMS, too. The DMS functionalities are suited only for small enterprises because when the number of resources increases it becomes harder to manage overall configuration. Anyway software is quite easy to use from an end-user point of view and it increases collaboration, especially when the team is already suited to use collaborative tools.
