Cons

"I don't know if the last version has the cloud option, but maybe that could be good. That could be something that is included."
"You should not hurry with upgrades without testing the whole product completely."
"The improvement is that it should be on the cloud and use web services."
"The solution needs to improve support for new, more recent protocols on the API."

"They should add more analytics. Their documentation could also be improved so that I don't have to bother my co-workers and tech support so often."
