My overall experience with Documoto has been wonderful, every person that I have every dealt with at Documoto has been courteous, knowledgeable and professional

Pros

The ability to customize almost every aseptic of the Documoto Rocket experience The searching capabilities The ability to brand Rocket for Metro The ease of updating and editing content

Cons

The supersession of part numbers, all of the existing tags on the original part number are not automatically transferred over to the new part number (however an enhancement is in the works)

Documoto has streamlined our Technical documentation creation by alleviating some of the clerical steps of the process, such as creating templates and organizing/managing content. The majority of our customers are able to pick up on the system with limited training.

Pros

The software is very user friendly on both the front-end, and the back-end. There are many features that give our customers confidence in finding the correct documentation for their needs. The software has also overhauled our technical documentation process, allowing us to focus more on content, and letting the system automate the organization/update processes.

Cons

We would love to see 3D implementation, which is currently being worked on. The user set up process could be improved by adding some sort of "Request Access" feature on the login screen to collect the information needed to set up new users. A guest portal feature would also be nice for users who would like to browse.

As I mentioned above, the user friendliness of the tool has been amazing. Our users were so dependent on calling into our sales admin team or tech services team to help identify a part. Now with Documoto our users are finding the parts on their first try using the tool. That means freeing up time and resources on our end and better potential for increased sales. The ability to scale with Documoto has also been a value add. Documoto is always willing to offer and work with us on solutions to any business problem or initiative we have. Finally having a dedicated Customer Success Manager that always makes herself available really provides that reassurance that you hope for when selecting a vendor to partner with.

Pros

What we find most beneficial is how user friendly the software is. After one month of launch we surveyed our user community and over 95% of respondents were able to find the part on the first attempt. Such features as the ability to zoom in and out on a parts page and to supersede part numbers makes it easy for our customers to identify the correct part.

Cons

One feature I feel that could be improved upon is the technical requirements at the kick off of the project, especially regarding the layout and structure within the tool. Since I'm not technical nor anyone on my project team we struggled with having to complete that. However with Documoto's help we were able to resolve it rather quickly.

Overall experience has been wonderful. Training was done by true professionals who value their product and are ready to help anytime.

Pros

It's ease of use, not only for admin users, but for all internal users throughout the company.

Cons

Search description doesn't seem to work to find a "description" of media or pages. Exact values must be entered

I would describe my overall experience with Documoto as very good! They have a knowledgeable support team and every interaction has been pleasant.

Pros

The software helps engineers, electricians and mechanics find the needed parts via dynamic and customizable search features.

Cons

In order to setup and implement Documoto into our servicing and repair process, we needed the in-depth involvement of our Integration Technologies team. The Documoto Support team assisted every step of the way but the initial implementation took a lot of time and effort.

Reasons for choosing Documoto

The Documoto parts catalog system provided the features and flexibility that we needed moving forward.

Pros

Documoto provides an easy to use interactive electronic parts catalog for our dealers. The exploded views and part lists provide our customers with a helpful tool to identify the items they need. And the Documoto Technical Support Staff has always been Best-in-Class.

Cons

As with any software, you may wish some features worked a little differently for your use. For example, I would like the feature of adding sub-assemblies / service parts to operate slightly different. I know they are truly appreciative of my feedback and are considering this improvement for a future software release.

We have been with Documoto for several years. We've been there with the growing pains they have had over the years. The software is finally on the HTML5 platform which is much better than the original Flash platform. More features and much more reliable. Our dealers were very skeptical of Documoto when we switched over, but we have won most of them over with the ability to provide accurate parts books and make changes quickly when needed.

Pros

The ability to update and manage our content. We can make changes and have them live to our dealers within minutes. We can relate documents and parts to other documents and parts making it easy for dealers to find the information they are needing quickly. Support team is great.

Cons

I wish there was more customization available. Overall pretty happy with the Documoto software. The things which I 'dislike' are more personal preferences which if we had more customization available I could fix.

Pros

basically anything you put on this site will have the same procedure of uploading.

Cons

The only thing that comes to mind when I think of a con for Documoto is that I can't delete a tag that I intentionally left blank to a Template. When you add this same template to the media shelf it will add the same tags that you left blank in the tag value along with your other entries.

We went from static PDF parts books that had limited searchability and difficult to maintain with our heavy flow of updates. Now we have updates go out same day and that are applied to all or specific areas.

Pros

Full data interaction between all parts books.

Cons

A few extra search features could be helpful for end users who are not as familiar with browsing.

Reasons for choosing Documoto

The company is North American based, allowing for same time zone operations for customer service. As well offered the simplest data entry and most modern presentation for end users and admin users.
