Inteum Review - Minuet **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Doug H. | Associate VP, Tech Launch Arizona, Higher Education, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 16, 2021 **What do you like best about Inteum?** Web-based, good customer interaction and support. Attention to need for better analytics is worth noting. Apparent acknowledgement of customer service/focus is also valued. **What do you dislike about Inteum?** Current analytics are weak/difficult but improving, and "traversing the database" is difficult (have to move to different sections to get related information). Writing reports should be easy/straight-forward and not require special tables to be built to get related info. **What problems is Inteum solving and how is that benefiting you?** This system, invention/commercialization tracking, captures our entire business (including inventions, patents, licenses, revenues, and more...) and the benefit is a single point of reference. ### 2. Comprehensive Patent Database **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 30, 2018 **What do you like best about Inteum?** Straight-forward interface with plenty of areas to customize to meet our office's needs. Customized reports are easy to design and present only the data I want. The customer service is on point and always helpful. **What do you dislike about Inteum?** It would be helpful to have additional how-to videos on the support site. **What problems is Inteum solving and how is that benefiting you?** Patent management especially relating all the patent applications which stem from a technology and data reporting have been the most valuable benefits. ### 3. Technology Transfer Professional- daily Inteum user/administrator for office **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sandhya R. | Licensing Assistant, Hospital & Health Care, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2016 **What do you like best about Inteum?** Inteum was a quick-to-learn, easy to use interface (at least the basic features/capabilities). The customer support team is resourceful and helpful. Would like to get more information on some functionalities to maximize use of the database. **What do you dislike about Inteum?** Not familiar with Inteum Web to make the transition, annual training sessions for members to highlight upgrades to the database, new features/functionalities. Include user manuals, Help sections with the software without the need to call support/help desk. **What problems is Inteum solving and how is that benefiting you?** Manage invention disclosures, agreements in small tech transfer office. Inteum is very efficient database to manage/document the processes. ### 4. Committed Inteum User with Unmet Needs **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Research | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 23, 2016 **What do you like best about Inteum?** In my assessment of IP licensing products, it is best of breed for most academic TLOs. **What do you dislike about Inteum?** We are not most academic TLOs and the nature of our deal structures requires that we modify and tailor Inteum to our specific use case; for example, (a) connecting Inteum to other ERM, financial, or IP asset resources via software-coded synching routines, or (b) adapting our unique policies/contracts to a distributions cycle that is fully supported by Inteum. We also need to consolidate our real-reporting abilities. Keystroke response times can also be quite slow for our web-hosted account. **What problems is Inteum solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have successfully negotiated agreements serving a large and varied stakeholder set, leveraging a large and complicated IP asset portfolio, and tapping diverse and dynamic markets. ### 5. Optimizing Inteum for project indexing **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Research | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2016 **What do you like best about Inteum?** We're using Inteum for indexing our project information that includes some intellectual property assets but mainly for agreement logging and all association information for a project. It has great uses for showing relational data and provides an excellent source for producing reports for all project related information. **What do you dislike about Inteum?** The unfortunate part about using Inteum outside of its intended purposes is that it requires some discovery about how to use the existing fields and how to develop User Defined Fields. As a result it has taken a lot of collaboration and requests back and forth with Inteum team members in order to get the uses out of the tool. This is still a work in a progress, but as I come across obstacles the representatives and the IT support have been very accommodating to provide me with what I need. **Recommendations to others considering Inteum:** the system is great for managing IP and even for managing grant funding, as their receivables end for reporting is very robust. **What problems is Inteum solving and how is that benefiting you?** Reporting is increasingly requested and as a result inputting all the requested information into a database provides a quick solution to reporting on different levels of information that are related. In the past, much of the information in the reports are populated manually and could be automated through the use of Inteum. The challenge is often times we require developing the report from scratch since we aren't using Inteum for its intended purposes. We have had some great success with the use of Analytics in order to bring together all related information from Inteum. ### 6. Development of an Inventor Portal for Registering by Researchers their BIP, TPIP and PIP. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nerida O. | Regulatory and IP Analyst, Chemicals, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2016 **What do you like best about Inteum?** Prompt and helpful support from Inteum company and continual improvement of the system. **What do you dislike about Inteum?** Portal not as interactive with its database as we would like, requiring input of data rather than choosing from options already existing in the database. **What problems is Inteum solving and how is that benefiting you?** Development of an electronic IP Register with its associated benefits rather than the old paper form of Register. Extra benefit - Inteum helps minimise duplication and redundancy in the 'contacts' section of the database. ### 7. I'm the administrator of Inteum. we use it with in our TTO with ~20 people **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 16, 2016 **What do you like best about Inteum?** I like the search profiles, web interface and internal crosslinks between the different type of registrations **What do you dislike about Inteum?** I would like to have more freedom to remove items we don't use and to have more influence on the startup screen. **What problems is Inteum solving and how is that benefiting you?** Inteum is our contract archive and since all colleagues can access the items, questions can be answered more easily. However we are still strugling how to extract the necessary management information (partly due to the fact that we often have to build new fields and pages for specific questions). ### 8. Long term Inteum user **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2016 **What do you like best about Inteum?** The fact that the system is customizable and responsive to the needs of users. **What do you dislike about Inteum?** Inteum (at least as a local install) tends to be a bit confusing, new features are not always smoothly integrated or particularly well executed, and problems can take a long time to resolve. **Recommendations to others considering Inteum:** Have good technical support available and seek training if running as a local installation. **What problems is Inteum solving and how is that benefiting you?** Keeping track of our agreement, technology, and patent portfolios. Inteum helps us stay organized and serves as a centralized repository of information. ### 9. Inteum Review **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2016 **What do you like best about Inteum?** The flexibility of customization and cost **What do you dislike about Inteum?** Inteum's Customer service is on the West Coast **Recommendations to others considering Inteum:** I think its the best software out there for those in the academic technology transfer business. The cost, ease of use and the flexibility when customization needs arise is unparalleled by any other competitor that I know of currently. **What problems is Inteum solving and how is that benefiting you?** Lack of record keeping and maintaining accurate data in Inteum can lead to issues when negotiating agreements; running reports in Inteum can help identify these issues. ### 10. Inteum Review **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2016 **What do you like best about Inteum?** Customer Service, connection to other institutions using Inteum **What do you dislike about Inteum?** I think there are many other ways to use Inteum, and I do not have the time to investigate, and I do not see an easy method to learn some of the accounting tricks to streamline work. Limited user ability with Analytics. **Recommendations to others considering Inteum:** Instead of relying on Analytics for reports, develop in house, regular ordinary reports that accounting folks would use. **What problems is Inteum solving and how is that benefiting you?** Able to track patent expenses and recoup costs ### 11. Learning every day. **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2016 **What do you like best about Inteum?** Ease of pulling reports and gathering information **What do you dislike about Inteum?** There are still some bugs in iEdison page that need to be revisited. **What problems is Inteum solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am able to upload my newly filed patents. ## Inteum Discussions - [What is Inteum used for?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-inteum-used-for) - [View Inteum pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/inteum/reviews?filters%5Bnps_score%5D%5B%5D=4§ion=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-08-13+12%3A12%3A09+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=9791f3cb-38a9-4232-96f4-cda075965ea3&secure%5Btoken%5D=2397d7145ad9a2192e9502b828d42758b54f08c91af6fa904bfcddf0cb4c1b39&format=llm_user) ## Inteum Features **Agentic AI - Intellectual Property Management** - Multi-step Planning - Cross-system Integration - Adaptive Learning - Natural Language Interaction - Decision Making - Third-Party Integrations - Forecasting - Records Management **Additional Functionality** - Spend Management - Customizable Reports - Workflow Management - Renewal Management - Content Management - AI Copilot - Patent Tracking - Activity Dashboard - Purchase Order Management - IP Portfolio Management - Generative AI - Access Controls/Permissions - Prioritization - Drag & Drop - Electronic Payments - Search/Filter - Reminders - Document Management - Status Tracking - Contact Management - Invoice Management - Performance Metrics - Document Storage - Alerts/Notifications - Deadline Management - Disclosure Management - Data Capture and Transfer - Data Storage Management - Categorization/Grouping - Docket Management - Billable Items Tracking - Communication Management - Reporting & Statistics - Customizable Fields - API - Trademark Tracking - User Management - Case Management - Historical Reporting ## Top Inteum Alternatives - [FoundationIP](https://www.g2.com/products/foundationip/reviews) - 4.0/5.0 (105 reviews) - [IPfolio](https://www.g2.com/products/ipfolio/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (32 reviews) - [Alt Legal](https://www.g2.com/products/alt-legal/reviews) - 4.8/5.0 (22 reviews)
