Integration with Adobe Suite was great, but there were too many limitations based on the composition tools used
Creating dynamic content solutions for both transactional and marketing communications Developing smarter solutions for customers xPression was touted as a future solution, but didn't meet needs and therefore was replaced. Limitations of functions compared to the tool it was intended to replace…

Solutions Architect at Customer Centrics
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."
"Quadient is a complete solution package by which we can achieve everything in the customer communication domain."
"Inspire is fast, reliable, and pretty unlimited in what you can do."
"The most valuable features are the easy-to-use document composition tool and the automatization tools."
"Within our organisation Quadient has radically improved our setup and processing efficiency and has enabled us to offer clients options and turnaround schedules that would not have been possible previously (Print, PDF, Email, Data etc.)."
"The most valuable feature we have found is the speed to produce files and the number of files that can be sent at one time."
"The most valuable aspect of Inspire is that it is constantly being upgraded to keep up with current market trends."
"The Inspire single solution was by far a better option."
"It’s easier to maintain and edit communication, and it error-proofs our regulatory responsibility."
 

Cons

"xPression was touted as a future solution, but didn't meet needs and therefore was replaced."
"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."
"It would be great to have an easy interface to handle the 80% of simple impositions and still have the complexity needed for the other 20%."
"The product would be improved with the inclusion of support for address cleansing in all of the EU countries."
"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."
"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)."
"One improvement would be to make the training modules or university free for users, as not all companies will pay for their employees to do the training and get the certificates."
"More flexibility in editing."
"What can be improved are the new additions to the solution."
