Flexible, easy to use, and has fast output generation
Based on current market trends, Quadient has ticked all the boxes. For the next release, I would like to see more features in the Evolve Cloud offering. The Evolve Platform will be a game changer for Quadient as it will attract more enterprise customers who want to move their CCM platform to the cloud. The other CCM platform has its offering in the cloud, but it has some limited use cases.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Integration with Adobe Suite was great, allowed for smarts of industry standard tool to be leveraged."
"Its easy-to-learn scripting possibilities give unlimited possibilities for any task."
"We are able to provide a complex end-to-end solution to any of our customers very easily."
"It supports various types of input files and can generate different types of output files."
"Inspire is fast, reliable, and pretty unlimited in what you can do."
"It’s easier to maintain and edit communication, and it error-proofs our regulatory responsibility."
"In the past, we used other VDPs and we moved to Inspire Designer due to its ease of use, flexibility, and processing speed."
"The most valuable features are the easy-to-use document composition tool and the automatization tools."
"The user-friendly way that workflows in Quadient Inspire can be composed and organized goes a long way towards minimizing the time spent creating complex tasks, thus creating more available programming time/capacity for new jobs. While original scripting knowledge is preferential to using the tool effectively, the modular structure and GUI interface makes it much easier to grasp than otherwise might have been the case."

Cons

"xPression was touted as a future solution, but didn't meet needs and therefore was replaced."
"We'd like to be able to see page breaks when we proof the blocks."
"The help system is quite thorough if you know where to look, but I find that its search facility is perhaps not as extensive as it might be and often returns fairly random results unless the search terms used are very specific."
"They could add more functionality in near future in Inspire Interactive."
"In the (near) future I would love to be able to merge Excel XLS data with the same level of ease that we can currently merge CSV data sources (including text attributes, which are lost when using the CSV format)."
"I feel the scripting modules are very powerful but are difficult to use if you do not have the programming knowledge."
"What can be improved are the new additions to the solution."
"I would like more wizards to be included in the scripting module and perhaps an online training course on Udemy would be a useful asset."
"More flexibility in editing."
