"Architect and administrator for a WebCenter implementation"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Oracle WebCenter Content?

WebCenter is a development platform for providing web based forms and methodologies for presenting searches and data retrieval in an appealing form. I particularly liked the scalability and the integration features that WebCenter had with the backend data platforms. We only used a limited number of the features of WebCenter. We did not take advantage of communities, email, etc. But, we used WebCenter successfully to provide a full featured Web Interface to analysts to query and retrieve data using content management, access to the backend data, and the ADF platform for presentation. Oracle really supported us with the development, configuration, and correct sizing of WebCenter since it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle WebCenter Content?

WebCenter was only one of the Oracle products used in providing a Web based solution for our analyst. There were many other Oracle products we had to use for authentication and authorization. Administering and integrating the product with other components was not simple. It required a very skilled set of developers and engineers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Oracle WebCenter Content:

It requires skilled people. Getting skilled engineers is very important in the success of the product. An engineer must have Application Server experience, ADF experience, and a good background in the web. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Oracle WebCenter Content solving and how is that benefiting you?

Providing online tools for analysts to retrieve and analyze data. There were no automated techniques prior to our solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Content Management uses for WebCenter"

4/5

What do you like best about Oracle WebCenter Content?

As a Portal admin, I've built several Portals for various LoBs and find customizing each Portal quite easy. The process is not overly technical and even those without technical acumen can likely build a Portal with practice. Oracle has easy-to-use generic Portal training documentation and if needed, other materials can easily found online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle WebCenter Content?

While WebCenter integrates social media attributes into content management, it hasn't been a very popular or useful feature for our enterprise. Users also become confused with the difference between notifications and subscriptions. This requires more training so users use the feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Oracle WebCenter Content:

Product licenses are quite expensive, so it is something to consider when considering WebCenter vs. other products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Oracle WebCenter Content solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have built custom workflow for document management, so users receive notifications when a document is ready for review, has been rejected, etc. The workflow is exactly the same as what was used before WebCenter implementation and the users acclimated well.
