Lacks value for Money in SMB **Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Wholesale | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 24, 2022 **What do you like best about Upland Objectif Lune - OL Connect?** The Data mapping and Designer is great for creating flexible documents. Many different processing options are included. Once documents are made, making changes is easy. Eliminates discussions with Print Services regarding pre-printed forms adjustments Excellent but Expensive Support. Support techs have always gone above and beyond, their support department is fantastic. **What do you dislike about Upland Objectif Lune - OL Connect?** - No Training or Product Onboarding is provided with the $13K License for the suite. - It's very expensive. - Training as well as Support and Maintenance are additional costs and are very expensive. - Using the Free Online Training leaves you with a very minimal understanding of the product suite and usually with more questions about the product than answers. - The Progam has a long delay before outputting a document. Not great for On-Demand Printing. (something we specifically told the sales rep we would be using the software for, Apparently they have another solution called Pres Connect that is cheaper and much better at this, we were never given an option to evaluate that solution.) - After Numerous Attempts to fix an issue with the software, Support was unable to provide a solution (after two years), so we had to reconfigure the entire process to avoid the issue, making it more cumbersome but at least reliable. After doing this work and asking support for assistance with a minor page order issue, they declined, saying that we had to purchase OL Care as the previous issue had now been resolved (resolved because I implemented an entirely new process that avoided the issue. Something that if it had been suggested to me, would have been implemented over a year ago when our OL Care was still valid.) - The solution Costs a lot for what you get. - After your "OLCare" expires, as one would naturally assume, you are no longer eligible for updates. Essentially similar to Maintenance Fees from companies like IBM or Adobe. But unlike those companies, OL Provides no Support for their product after OLCare is expired, you must pay for the absurdly priced OL Care or solve your own issues, even basic troubleshooting. - When you do have OL Care, To initiate a support ticket you must first jump through a pile of hoops, provide several identifiers and retrieve serials and license numbers from your software. It's a very cumbersome process that I believe is created to discourage you from even creating a support ticket in the first place. - While support is Fantastic they can spend TOO LONG on an issue. It would be suggested that if they are unable to resolve an issue after a month or two that they have you explore alternative options instead of beating a dead horse. They fail to acknowledge the shortcomings of their solution and promise they can resolve the issue even after it has been plaguing your install for the better part of two years with no signs of a real resolution. - Did I mention: It's Incredibly Expensive! **Recommendations to others considering Upland Objectif Lune - OL Connect:** Evaluate the cost of your pre-printed forms and compare them to the price of ongoing support. Unless you have a significantly high volume of pre-printed forms printing there is a good chance this solution is more expensive than pre-printed forms. If an issue goes on for more than 2 months ask the support team to start evaluating alternative workflow or design options instead of living with unresolved issues and waiting for further investigations. Do EXTENSIVE testing of ANY non-standard font package. We had to switch our fonts a couple of times due to rendering issues with the planet press "engine". Buy a new machine to host it on, Ensure it has Redundancy and NEVER CHANGE OR MOVE IT! PlanetPress generates a Magic Number that binds it to a current hardware set, changing the hardware or moving the software to a new host will result in your license no longer being valid. If you have OL Care, make sure to implement and test as many processes as possible before it expires so you have as many well-configured examples as possible should you have to set up a new process in the future. Pay extra for Training. The product is very hard to understand and figure out, OL Offers paid-for training to help mitigate this, As the training is prohibitively expensive we did not purchase the training package and therefore cannot speak to the quality of instruction, but can only assume that getting trained is better than going in blind. **What problems is Upland Objectif Lune - OL Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?** Trying to Eliminate Pre-Printed forms, decrease our printing costs and increase our flexibility in the creation and alteration of our forms. The main benefit has been a great increase in the speed of our forms design and the ability to quickly print off multiple versions of a form for evaluation. The drawback is that ongoing support costs more than our pre-printed forms did. ### 2.

Implementor of Connect Technology **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Dolf v. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 06, 2021 **What do you like best about Upland Objectif Lune - OL Connect?** PlanetPress Connect's designer is based on Html, CSS and Javascript. Making your documents looking good for print, mail or even portals (dynamic html files) using the same parts of data can be done. Because of CSS the documents can be made responsive, but you have to got knowledge about CSS. The basics of the Designer can be teached in 2 days, but after the training, you have to keep working with it to get familiair with the tool. It's drag and drop, but if you go a bit further, you have to do more advanced work. At the moment the automation layer is a bit out dated. The automation layer is 32-bits and uses old components. Currently Objectif Lune is working on a cloud solution, but is not released yet. **What do you dislike about Upland Objectif Lune - OL Connect?** Lot's of customers implement PlanetPress themselves, but create a messed up solution because the missing knowledge of how to build processes in PlanetPress Connect. The system is like a legobox where you can build your solution. This is both good and bad. But there are no best practises to compare your build. **Recommendations to others considering Upland Objectif Lune - OL Connect:** Contact a company that implemenrs and sells PlanetPress Connect and you should confirm that they understand your challenges, instead of implement your request. So look behind the pretty sales persons face. **What problems is Upland Objectif Lune - OL Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are making solutions for customers from adding overlays on a print to very advanced automation processes for big companies like insurance, automotive, logistics, etc. Because of our expertise, we create solid solutions, and happy customers. ### 11.
