Analista at a consultancy with 201-500 employees
Digital workflows have transformed meeting minutes and document tracking across departments
There are some particular aspects of Hyland OnBase, such as layouts or some modules that have just been built, that are not designed with the end user in mind. That's something they need to improve. However, even if it's not adequate for the end user, you can still take that and, with custom development, use those modules and APIs in a user-friendly way. They need to improve the interface and usability of Unity and think more about usability. In terms of tool usability, sometimes there are too many clicks to perform an action, which, if you developed it yourself, you could do in two clicks, whereas within Unity you need four or five clicks to do the same process.

If customers want to change the color or the logo, they have to go through every page to verify everything is right. We have a strategic approach for the customer. I was involved in almost 100 sessions where the customers were looking for a one-time process visualization or one-time process mining, not for a long-term association with this tool. The customer's requirements are more tactical than strategic. We had some challenges during this time frame as I was with iGrafx, and electricity costs rose in Germany. One customer stopped a large deal because they had to reduce every non-invested investment due to the electricity bill rising by 500% to 800%.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What I find exceptional is the document storage itself; it's outstanding how quickly you can find documents, content within documents, or images."
"The solution is very developed and we are not taking full advantage of its functionalities."
"Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) allowed us to enforce strict data privacy requirements like LGPD by ensuring users could only access authorized records based on their role, while making user onboarding and permission management much faster and more reliable."
"This solution is easy to implement and easy to use as long as you know what your business requirement are or the specifications are straightforward."
"Hyland OnBase is a powerful enterprise management platform that is scalable, flexible, and secure in storing, retrieving, and making workflow automations."
"I like the cloud and its integrability."
"The product's initial setup phase is not difficult."
"The most valuable features are that it's very secure and provides audit trails for our documents."
"The solution's technical support is of good quality since they offer fast and seamless services."
"Web diagramming and RACI have helped expedite the process, capture, and ownership initiatives of our organization."
"Finding the right symbol and creating links, horizontal and vertical are the features I use."
"Simulation is most valuable."
"We found the technical support to be helpful."
"It has simplified compliance with regulations and company standards."
"Overall, the solution is very useful and has good features."
"Provides a valuable BPMN feature."
 

Cons

"For user experience, they would have to do more with the interface. It is not easy to work with and is a little messy. It is getting better, but it is not yet good enough. Other products are comparatively doing better in terms of the user interface. I have been hearing about Box, which is very easy to use and learn for the users. OnBase has to work on this aspect. It should have BPM capabilities. We compete with tools that provide the BPM feature and support those standards. They can do better in terms of the pricing model. It is a really expensive tool in Latin America. They should have different prices for different regions."
"Hyland OnBase could be improved in terms of service support response time."
"The look and feel could be better. The integration with the user could be better. It could also be more user-friendly."
"We found the size of images to be a restriction, though this may have been due to the API used rather than the Hyland application."
"Hyland OnBase can be improved by providing a modern user interface, simplified deployment and admin overhead, API capabilities, and advanced AI."
"We are struggling with duplicates and would like to have OCR functionality when using this solution."
"As an ECM solution, there are a lot of improvements needed. For example, the web client should address the next generation of web technologies such as HTML5 and stylish layout."
"We need to troubleshoot why our reports didn't get downloaded in a day. There is a workflow feature which powerful but also complicated."
"The price could be more competitive."
"Dragging and dropping shapes is not as user-friendly as in Visio. In Visio, it's very easy to work with shapes and in very few minutes you can plot a whole, multi swim-lane, cross-functional process."
"It can be more user-friendly."
"In the next release, I would like to see more layers like three, four, and five. It might be possible but I haven't seen it yet."
"The look and feel, along with the ease of use of the solution's web modeling version, is an area with certain shortcomings."
"With iGrafx, the implementation and the licensing were pretty complex."
"Visio is more user-friendly."
"Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a reseller in Mexico."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's price is high."
"The solution costs around $6,000 per month."
"There are a number of different types of licenses. There are concurrent licenses, individual licenses and imaging licenses."
"They can do better in terms of the pricing model. It is a really expensive tool in Latin America. They should have different prices for different regions."
"OnBase is reasonably priced."
"The licensing part is one of the problems. Its licensing depends on the number of users, so it sometimes gets expensive."
"Earlier, the licensing part was complex because there were so many modules and elements in the tool. Over the last one and a half years, a lot of work has gone into how the product has priced and positioned its tools in the market."
"I have heard that the solution's pricing is very competitive."
"Our license is a subscription-based model that is per user. The solution is not expensive, I believe a subscription-based model is $10 per user."
"My company is trying to replace iGrafx because the license is a little bit expensive."
