| Practice Director at a outsourcing company with 51-200 employees | 3.5 | I use OpenText Extended ECM for managing various documents across procurement, sales, and engineering. It integrates well with SAP for effective document management, but it's costly, has viewing issues, unclear pre-sales communication, and needs better knowledge website organization. |

However, reaching OpenText support is challenging, and its pricing is higher compared to alternatives like SharePoint, which offers better support. |
