### "Non Technical User "

July 2, 2021

5.0

Docubase has exceptional support system. Because I am a non-system user, the system is and was complicated for my use, however \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] has gone over and beyond in assisting in my understanding of the software's use. The sysytem is not as complicated once you understand some of its nuances. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] has not hesistate to assist me or to explain certain aspects of the software whenever asked.

Pros

The Software is very useful in that it is web based and available to staff with internet connections. The previous software was only accessible via the agency's network. Hence, it the system was down, staff had no access to critical files. An end-user would find this very helpful in their work which can be at anytime of day of night because of the nature of their work.

Cons

As the staffer who enters creates the file, the lack of not suggesting descriptions with those that are already in the dictionary means that there are a variety of names for the same documents, different files, entered since the descriptions are keyed in for each document. This requires editing the document names for consistency. Moreover, whenever entering various documents with the same date, the date nor the status hold which requires manual entry for each file. There is a trick to hold the same document, different names, which is not consistent for my use.

Reason for choosing DOCUBASE

Selection made by the \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] and Technology Manager. I was initially hired as file clerk to file paper documents. Later, I was advised on sytem change and began using another system for document input. After a couple of years, Technology Manger advised that we were changing to a web-based system and that I was going to love it. I just go with the flow.

### "Docubase"

June 30, 2021

5.0

Not only has Docubase been an essential tool in our efforts, but the team implementing and supporting the product has been a key part of our success with Docubase. Their support team was there to help us through every step of the way; from initial setup and configuration, to expanding our capabilities with new features, providing new updates, and eventually building integrations with other business applications.

Pros

The product has been a huge part of our organization's document digitization program that started in the early 2000's. There are multiple methods for users to retrieve and store documents such as a web UI and Windows client, for tech users there is an API for retrieving and storing documents. This has enabled us to expand from just scanning and indexing documents either manually or with barcodes to now directly feeding documents into the application from other business applications and our UNIX systems.

Cons

The Windows Client is a bit older software that requires some finesse to get installed and configured correctly, but once that is done the application works flawlessly. Configuration files can be easily backed up, so it's easy to reproduce the specific setup on multiple workstations.

### "A Viewpoint from a Reseller"

July 20, 2021

Customers who previously had a Windows based files (mostly as PDFs) were looking for a database that was easy to use and accessible over state wide networks. Docubase fits their needs.

Pros

Docubase filled a niche in our product line up that was not there earlier.

Cons

Having an ODBC database would be helpful so that we could scan in from another product we have.

Reason for choosing DOCUBASE

We retain a lot less paper in the office which is great. Our experience has been awesome and would highly recommend them.

Pros

This has been a great tool for us to store our documents digitally. Customer support is always helpful.

Cons

The only challenge we sometimes have is having to scan a document multiple times so we can have it stored at contract level for a customer.

### "Pleased Value Added Reseller"

July 6, 2021

5.0

Pros

IBT has been a VAR to Docubase for over 2 decades and couldn't be more pleased with the product features, software enhancements and overall performance. Being in the higher education vertical, our clients are most impressed with the ease of use, support provided, in addition to the integration possibilities with their own student information systems.

Cons

The documentation is lacking, when in English the print screens shown are always in French.

### "Altamente confiable y seguro"

June 30, 2021

5.0

100 % recomendable sin lugar a dudas. si deseas seguridad, distribución, consulta global, confianza y soporte, este el el sistema.

Pros

En 20 años de uso, la confiabilidad del sistema ha sido determinante para la tranquilidad de nuestros clientes, la operación ha sido continua sin interrupciones, logrando gran confianza y seguridad. Además de ser tremendamente intuitivo por lo que el usuario final lo opera prácticamente sin capacitación. Cabe señalar que la actualización y la evolución de docubase ha sido fundamental.

Cons

Es muy difícil contestar esta pregunta, tal vez la falta de manuales para los administradores...

Reason for choosing DOCUBASE

Fué el único que nos dió la solución exacta de ERM/COLD que se requería nuestro principal cliente.
