I think the process engine Alfresco Process Services is the Achilles' heel of ADBP, it has a lot to improve as a product. The modeler must be innovated, out of the box connector, ... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Still to attain the handling of capacity when it comes to statistics regarding the content volume and the types of contents.

Breadth of offering given it is a focused product Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface was intuitive and simple to use. I was also happy with the ease of deployment across our team. Even though we have a small team we had some complex use cases that were able to be resolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Documentation could have been more aligned to some of our custom use cases. We were able to find what we needed eventually but would prefer it had been better organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing that I like the most about Alfresco is that it does not require any special installation, one can use it through a web browser. Document management becomes easier with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very slow. It takes a lot of time to download files.

No clear instructions are provided for navigating

User interface is quite dull

I think this product works best for small business or those that are just getting their feet wet with Content Services and record management software. It works well with Unix-like operating systems, and Windows. I have not tried this on Mac. You are also able to control who has access to files via a pretty robust role and permission filing sharing system so only those that truly need to see a document can have access and you are able to maintain confidentiality of sensitive information. The customer service representatives were really friendly and we felt supported throughout the decision making process and like we were making the right decision for our organization. This was important as we didn't want to have buy a software that may not work and then later had to switch platforms again and slow down business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UX of Alfresco Systems is pretty basic. The UX is also not as customizable as one would expect and feels more like a product that would have been "state of the art" in 2005 but feels slightly out of date for 2022. I wouldn't recommend this as a "front end" customer service tool but rather something that should be used on the back end by internal and operational teams. Alfresco Process Services is not able to generate public facing URLs which makes it difficult to collaborate and share information with external partners. I don't see a lot of Research and Development going into this tool in the future which is unfortunate because I think it's one of those situations "what you buy is what you get" and don't expect the product to release major updates in the future but of course I could be very wrong about this.

I very much appreciate the fact that it's considerably cheaper than Microsoft Sharepoint. I also enjoy the ability that you are able to access the content outside the web as well as the collaborative web content. The integration across various tools and applications such as Moodle and the platform integrates well with that and while the UI is aesthetically unpleasant it is easy to navigate. The custom APIs are also helpful which to customize. The auditing feature is also really helpful and the platform is overall able to handle a large number of documents through the system which helps our team a lot especially since it doesn't take up a lot of server capacity. The 24/7 customer service options are helpful although we haven't had the need to use it. The live on-demand training courses and webinars are tailored to a variety of users as developers and end users. We haven't experienced any bugs in the software.

The interface of the platform is not user-friendly and has archaic features that are difficult to navigate. The platform doesn't have the ability to easily integrate with social networking platforms. Documentation can be challenging because as there are multiple updates to the platform (albeit a very good thing) they often don't come with the updated documentation in a timely manner. The sharper learning curve could make it difficult for those individuals within the organization that are not receptive to change or technologically savvy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
