Self Employed at a tech vendor
I value the document formatting and generation.
I value the document formatting and generation. It has evolved over time and has seen better days, but the capabilities are still very good. However, not for the high price. The product is good, but it is butchered to be a workflow engine, which it is not really designed for.

Flexible, easy to use, and has fast output generation
Based on current market trends, Quadient has ticked all the boxes. For the next release, I would like to see more features in the Evolve Cloud offering. The Evolve Platform will be a game changer for Quadient as it will attract more enterprise customers who want to move their CCM platform to the cloud. The other CCM platform has its offering in the cloud, but it has some limited use cases.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The system has improved a number of customers' communication pieces, made them look better, and provided features to enhance them."
"In the past, we used other VDPs and we moved to Inspire Designer due to its ease of use, flexibility, and processing speed."
"Within our organisation Quadient has radically improved our setup and processing efficiency and has enabled us to offer clients options and turnaround schedules that would not have been possible previously (Print, PDF, Email, Data etc.)."
"Its easy-to-learn scripting possibilities give unlimited possibilities for any task."
"The reports we produce are customised to a wide range of client type with the optional pages and sections numbering in their hundreds."
"This solution does everything we need, plus so much more."
"Inspire is fast, reliable, and pretty unlimited in what you can do."
"The most valuable aspect of Inspire is that it is constantly being upgraded to keep up with current market trends."
"It supports various types of input files and can generate different types of output files."
 

Cons

"Everything is proprietary and the days are counted that it will last."
"The help system is quite thorough if you know where to look, but I find that its search facility is perhaps not as extensive as it might be and often returns fairly random results unless the search terms used are very specific."
"For the next release, I would like to see more features in the Evolve Cloud offering."
"I feel the scripting modules are very powerful but are difficult to use if you do not have the programming knowledge."
"More flexibility in editing."
"The de-bug/help system is quite ambiguous at times and only works if you know where to look, but I find that its search facility is perhaps not as extensive as it might be and often returns fairly random results unless the search terms used are very specific."
"Imposition would be the area that we would like to see improved."
"The licensing and setup costs historically have been a roadblock, but there have been improvements on this over the years as things move into the cloud."
"The product would be improved with the inclusion of support for address cleansing in all of the EU countries."
