OpenText Documentum Content Management Reviews & Product Details

The architecture means easy implementation of new packages for users who don’t directly deal with technical and financial aspects of licensing too. Makes it easy to use in particularly large offices, and at minimal cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The actual process of dealing with licenses requires a big deal of technical knowledge. Also little comparisons between different produces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Documentum is stable and advanced ECM system if advanced functionality is what is required for a company. It has lots of entry point for customization and configurations, integrates nicely with many other OpenText and business solutions. Has best in class search engine - xPlore. Search engine and its performance if sometimes noted by companies why it has won over Documentum vs its fierce competitors. Repository is very stable and not support intensive.

Expences. Documentum costs a lot of money, support and administration adds up nicely and hence many companies are constantly looking for replacements - something that has maybe less functionality but costs substantially less. Some are tied to Documentum because of regulated industries etc. but expence and UI are the main factors that makes this solution little less appealing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how it allows long, lasting storage and safety for important documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike how difficult it is to categorize your documents, as you cannot input a field without first adding the field as a "descriptor" option. I also dislike how you cannot easily search for a key word for accurate results and an easy find of the document when you don't know what it is filed under. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
