Microsoft OneDrive vs OpenText Extended ECM comparison

"The backup capability is one feature I love about OneDrive. I also like how it syncs when you're working offline. Everything is updated once you connect again."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is the amount of space allotted to each user that is issued a subscription."

"We use Microsoft OneDrive for file sharing without the need for additional hardware (such as flash drives or external hard drives)."

"It's quite easy to use and then of course it is quite well integrated to the rest of Office 365."

"They have support for integration with a lot of tools."

"With this solution, the sharing of documents if very easy to do. There's a lot of collaboration you can do with your colleagues."

"Being able to use OneDrive as a mapped drive in Windows Explorer is the most valuable feature. Rather than using OneDrive on a browser, you can also open up the Windows Explorer and I can see the file structure in the normal format."

"The most valuable feature is to be able to modify the file online and keep it stored on the cloud, since it is not necessary to download it to make modifications."

"We can configure the solution with any industry's products per customer requirements."

"An SAP user can store documents directly into OpenText without a connector."

"The version controls and the business workspace part integrate well with SAP and OpenText, providing granular level control over who accesses the workspace."

"The ability to add metadata and use that to categorize information is a valuable feature of OpenText Extended ECM."

"The seamless integration between SAP and OpenText offers a 360-degree view of documents, facilitating a full-text search capability."

"Most of our customers are very fond of the upgraded smart user interface."

"OpenText Extended ECM's most valuable features include permissions and security models. I also like the tool's ability to add metadata and use it to categorize information."

"Simplicity to roll out, features available, customization options."

"If I want to pick out certain criteria of pictures, Google enables me to do that whereas OneDrive is a bit sort of flaky."

"It takes too long for OneDrive to synchronize various applications, especially when you are saving office data. It also requires too much bandwidth."

"The user interface sometimes fails and when it cannot connect, it does not give the reason why."

"The area that can be improved is to be able to share easily with folks outside the organization and with folks who don't have an office account. Sometimes, when you send a link, you might have some form of repetition. If you don't know how to share it properly, whoever you are sharing it with will have issues using it. Also, the link that you use to share a document can be made a bit shorter. It doesn't have to be long. Typically, when you want to share a document, it has everything, such as the name of the organization, SharePoint, etc. A short URL will be easier to use, and it will just make life easier, especially because a lot of people are now going mobile. I'm not sure if there's a mobile version of Microsoft OneDrive, similar to Google Drive. If they don't have a mobile app, it would also be nice to have a mobile app because that would help in checking out your documents. It would be easy to check your documents on the go on your phone."

"An increase in the capacity of storage in the free version would be nice."

"The user interface could be a little more intuitive."

"OneDrive is a bit behind competing products like Dropbox and Box."

"The file structure insight could be made more flexible like for creating more flexible folders."

"The cost of the product could be improved."

"The annotation tool needs improvement. In other tools, such as Hyland OnBase, you can easily do annotation. You can easily merge documents. You can easily compare documents, whereas with OpenText, it seems to be a challenge."

"Initially there can be stability issues due to unknown factors such as usage of the system, quantity of documents ingested, load during peak hours."

"More out-of-the-box automation features should be added to OpenText Extended ECM."

"The solution should work better with partners and be more developer-friendly."

"The tool's documentation is not proper and has missing information like steps."

"The solution needs to improve the user interface."

"A dashboard with information would be nice to see."

"Costwise, it is a great option. In most cases, it is a free space, which will be more than enough for most customers."

"We pay a lot for the Enterprise version, but it is a premium service."

"It is free if you are using Office 365, and you get a terabyte of storage with your account."

"Using this software, it has had an amazing impact moneywise on our business. It allows us to share documents without the need of extra hardware."

"The price of Microsoft OneDrive is reasonable and compatible with competitors."

"OneDrive comes with Microsoft 365 so it is just an added part of that package."

"The licensing is expensive and on a yearly basis."

"This is a pricy solution, given that we are only using it at 50% capacity."

"The solution is expensive."

"The pricing is costly. It's costly to integrate with Office 365 and to go back and forth with the sales team."

"The licensing is not that complex for the core products, but it becomes more complicated for some additional modules."

"It is a little more expensive than our previous solution, but because of the fact that it has become a rallying point for different groups to come under, it might end up paying off better in the long run by not having seven siloed solutions. Even though this one solution is a little pricey, it might eliminate other ones."

"The product is pricey."

"OpenText Extended ECM is an expensive solution."

"The tool's pricing is confusing to the end customer."

"OpenText Extended ECM's pricing and licensing are aggressive and confusing for the end customer."
