### "Easy to use!"

June 12, 2019

5.0

I love the functionality of the system. Our office uses it all day long.

Pros

It's very easy to use and has a lot of cool functions that the older version did not have.

Cons

Trying to print it a bit of a hassle, which is confusing because it didn't used to be that way. I'm not sure why happened or why.

### "Great Integration into Outlook"

July 18, 2019

4.0

Pros

I liked having the ability to link documents directly from DocuWare.

Cons

I wish there was a google style search option

We appreciate your taking the time to review DocuWare. We're glad that the solution's Outlook integration capabilities work well for you. You can enhance DocuWare's search capabilities by using Full-Text search. You can also use a wildcard by adding an asterisk on either side or on both sides of your search expression. Additionally, wrap multiple search terms in quotes and separate them with AND or OR to use multiple values against a field or fields in a search dialog. Please reach out to your DocuWare Sales Director for further assistance or contact us at customer.feedback@docuware.com.

### "Local support is excellent. They go above and beyond. DocuWare is very end-user friendly."

May 16, 2017

4.0

Document management is a breeze.

Pros

End-users typically have no trouble using the software and pick it up intuitively. Adding documents to the repository and retrieving them after is a breeze.

Cons

As an administrator, I find the management interface to be convoluted and difficult. So convoluted, in fact, that if you don't work with the interface on a very frequent basis you will find yourself struggling to perform most configuration changes. Knowing where to change something -- even which interface to use to change something -- is difficult. Why is there an administration area that is not web-based, and then workflow management is web-based, etc.? All management functions should be in a common interface, with a common look and feel. That's simply not the case here.

November 15, 2023

Pros

Funciona muy bien. Es rapido y esta disponible al 99% del tiempo.

Cons

El precio. Creo que es caro. El sistema de reconocimiento de los campos de facturas es complicado de entrenar, y en ocasiones falla.

### "Happy about selection "

August 28, 2019

5.0

The overall capability of the software is amazing; it makes you really take a step back and reevaluate your own process and goals.

Pros

How you can incorporate this product on any area in your business. I also like how it bridges with various software applications.

Cons

I can’t select a series of documents and index them/store in separate trays simultaneously.

September 17, 2019

Thank you for your review. We appreciate hearing from our customers. We're glad that your organization is benefiting from DocuWare's flexibility and integration capabilities. Depending on what you are trying to accomplish, your DocuWare administrator or your partner can configure the solution to store documents in separate trays. The documents must have an index field that identifies their document type. Then a process runs in the background to send the files to the designated tray.

### "DocuWare Review"

March 27, 2019

4.0

Pros

I like that it gives me a preview of the files before I open them. I also like that it stores everything in color and that I can store multiple things at once. It works well at keeping things neat and is simple to use.

Cons

The search function is not very good. In order to get results when performing a search you have to search the name of the document exactly as it was recorded. This can be difficult when looking for something that you stored months ago.

### "Documented Docuware Success Story"

January 11, 2017

5.0

As a Docuware client for over 15 years I have seen this product evolve. We have utilized this program to scan, index and search real estate title documents. From our first use we knew this product was going to revolutionize our title company and it has done this without any loss of productivity and, in fact, has saved manpower and storage dollars. From the moment we created our first "cabinet" with one entry till now where we house over 40 million images that are accessed by personnel from all our locations, we experience exceptional response time and absolutely no "down time". I highly recommend this product to anyone in the title industry.

Pros

Functionality, ease of use, and very small learning curve.

Cons

I have no adverse thoughts.

### "DocuWare: Serviceable"

February 2, 2021

3.0

My experience was good. As stated, once you figured out what you needed to do to complete the transaction, it was fine.

Pros

Our association used Docuware for about six years and for where our business model was at the time, it served a good purpose. Once you figured out the system, it was easy enough to use, albeit a bit "clunky." We used it primarily for uploading invoices and bills to be paid.

Cons

It was challenging to find past invoices with this system. Docuware was not overly intuitive, so it took a fair amount of time to figure out how to access and pull up past invoices if there were questions about payment.

### "Kann viel "

November 19, 2023

4.0

Solides Programm mit zu großen Funktionsumfang. Wichtig ist es gleich richtig zu zuschneiden. Danach wird es schwierig.

Pros

Sehr großer Funktionsumfang und viele Möglichkeiten für DMS und Workflows

Cons

Kompliziert in Anwendung und Optimierung da es durch die vielen Funktionen verkompliziert ist.

### "support & implementation teams are very responsive! Love this system...great for internal control!"

May 16, 2017

5.0

Pros

Once this system is set up to follow the approval / processing flow, the system is seamless. Nobody can forge a supervisor's approval. There are never any lost invoices as they all are scanned into Docuware and follow the pre-established process. We are more easily able to trace transactions do the source documents. Our auditors love it!

Cons

You have to call support to have a new user set up or cancel the rights of a user. Also, if a user closes the software by clicking the "X" in the upper right hand corner vs. officially logging off, it locks up the license and blocks the ability for another person to log in.

### "Safe and Secured"

December 19, 2023

4.0

Pros

I really like how Docuware works together with the other software's used to store documents for everything. Also, like how I can put any location and look up the information needed for the store/tenant. Once you understand how to use Docuware it is easily used and able to locate the information need.

Cons

The thing I like the least with Docuware is learning how to use the program. I have slowly taught myself how to navigate the program but I believe a lot of people are scared to use it because it can be confusing to learn how to navigate.

February 3, 2023

4.0

Overall, DocuWare is an excellent document management system. It has helped us to streamline our workflow and save time and resources. The user-friendly interface and automated processes make it easy to use and the search feature helps us quickly find the documents we need.

Pros

DocuWare is an incredibly efficient and user-friendly document management system. It has helped streamline our workflow, allowing us to quickly and easily access our documents and data. The search feature makes it easy to find the right document quickly and the automated processes have made our job easier.

Cons

Although DocuWare is a great document management system, it can be difficult to customize and configure it to meet our specific needs.

### "Docuware review"

June 18, 2019

5.0

So far, I am absolutely loving it. So easy to use and without having a client to install.

Pros

I love the web interface. It makes it so convenient. The UI layout is so intuitive compared to our old document system.

Cons

I don't like that I can't process multiple files by selecting the ones I want to change. It's either all or nothing.

DocuWare really helped streamline our invoice processing and document control systems

Pros

The DocuWare setup team really works with you and helps you customize the software for your needs. It's electronic identification of scanned documents and intelligent filing is top notch

### "Improved Service"

May 31, 2017

5.0

Improved information flow with customers and with suppliers. Also, greatly simplified locating documents.

Pros

The relationship with our vendors has improved because we now have a consistent and reliable way to communicate order information. We've found that better vendor relationships support better customer service. The breadth of features has also allowed us to improve information flow with our customers.

Cons

To fully leverage the features of the product we did need to develop owners inside the business who could trouble shoot and fine tune solutions. As is often the case, the more expert the user the more powerful the tool.

It greatly facilitates the analysis of documents, since being digital and being in the cloud, you can consult them at any time

September 16, 2023

5.0

Pros

I'm impressed because the software meets the needs of what I am looking for. DocuWare helps to store a tons of legal documents. It's fast. It's easy to navigate and easy to use for a new user like me. I would say this software is similar to Gofileroom - which also allow you to store documents online, but DocuWare is faster, from my experience.

Cons

I haven't seen a least feature about DocuWare yet since I has only used for couple months. But I like the software so far.
