Customer Success Manager at a tech company with 51-200 employees
Powerful data model building enables comprehensive document management for government sectors
The learning curve in Nuxeo is not easy, and it requires additional time. It's challenging to onboard new users or new developers. The resources on Hyland are good but lack exercises and use cases to apply by oneself during learning. There is not much practice to apply that knowledge directly on Nuxeo and get further details into the platform.

Collaboration has improved through simplified document access and controlled sharing
SharePoint is definitely used to keep a record of our files and data. The capability is quite good because it is time-saving. I have used it only four or five times, but it has been very helpful to keep all my information in a consolidated manner. The search feature is one of the most beneficial factors that we use to filter out the latest data or the latest file as per our convenience and use case. When you have a large repository, this feature is particularly valuable. Role-based access control has been helpful while developing the knowledge platform. The roles were defined clearly, which made it easy for the four or five of us to work simultaneously and collaborate on our project in a similar manner.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Nuxeo is very powerful in terms of building up the data model and the context model."
"Nuxeo content management engine is powerful and can be adjusted to any need (user interface, document types, automations, workflows)."
"For a medium to large scale business, it is excellent."
"SharePoint is a great document management tool."
"SharePoint manages version control, which makes it easier to track and amend documentation accurately, maintaining document integrity and enabling quick recovery if necessary."
"Competitors are solidly in the market who offer better workflow, security, governance and collaboration."
"Ease of use, ease of setup, ease of administration, ease of configuration, ease of customization... what's not to like?"
"It offers an easy way to store unstructured content (.pdf, .doc, .xls, images) and to tag them with metadata."
"Feedback workflows ensure we don't miss someone when documents need reviewing and approval workflows make sure the right people are approving it, especially when there are new or temporary staff involved."
"It has made us faster and more efficient."
 

Cons

"Pricing is too high. Nuxeo Studio has a fixed price, no matter the number of active users is."
"The learning curve in Nuxeo is not easy, and it requires additional time. It's challenging to onboard new users or new developers."
"You still need a bit of expertise to add branding."
"Synchronization of files in OneDrive can take some time which can ‘annoy’ some users."
"For sure, it should offer customisation of data grids, which is not possible, as it seems to use some proprietary OCX control."
"For example, if you installed SharePoint on a virtual machine with dynamic memory, it could destroy the farm without any possibility of repairing it."
"I would like a simpler, more cost-effective solution for connecting data sources with workflows and BI tools, or data mining tools."
"Searching for information appears based on Bing and that is utterly useless."
"Emails stored now do not display metadata in native format."
"Support is deficient. We depend on local vendors to get access to support and most of the issues we presented took more time to resolve that we wanted."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is pretty reasonable. It is $5 per month per user. We have 12 users now, so it is about $60 per month."
"The licensing model for SharePoint Online is based on per user, and it is monthly. The price of the solution overall is good."
"The replacement costs for it are cheaper if you use only SharePoint."
"It comes bundled with the Microsoft 365 pricing plans."
"As usual, Microsoft’s licensing structures don’t really seem to fit the needs of their products. This leads to always paying for a project you will never use fully or always be adding to."
"They are about an eight in comparison to other similar products."
"For this type of solution, it is not wise to buy it without Software Assurance."
"The cost is expensive, but worthwhile."

Jive vs Sharepoint vs Drupal Commons
At Mediacurrent we often get requests to compare Drupal to other platforms used for intranet sites and social business platforms (like https://dev.twitter.com/ for example). This is often referred to as “Social Business Software”, which has grown in popularity in recent years. I decided to do a…
