### "Laserfiche: Document Control Software"

September 30, 2024

4.0

As our design projects often involve sensitive client information, these features were crucial in our decision making process.

Pros

I can certainly say that Laserfiche has implemented a structure and made order out of the design document anarchy we have had. We estimate that the automated workflows have downsized our administrative burden to a considerable extent.

Cons

The search function is sometimes unable to search using different spellings or terms of the same item.

Previously, we used both cloud storage and physical filing, but we transferred to Laserfiche. By making this move, it has helped us consolidate all documents and make the process of accessing project information from the past easier.

### "Identify areas for improvement in making deals"

April 25, 2025

5.0

Evaluates my approach and guides well. I don't make blunders now. Rather point outs smaller mistakes too. Authority Zone feature is my favourite .

Pros

At times, over intervenes in the process. However, mostly the signals are accurate and gives you food for thought to proceed ahead.

### "Manage documents but no sharing!!"

July 19, 2022

Not bad but not the best

The capacity and general characteristics of the storage environment and capabilities of organizing and managing documents

### "Great Product to Streamline Documentation"

October 15, 2021

4.0

Laserfiche has completely transformed our HR onboarding processes. By doing so, our onboarding time has been cut down by more than 70%. As long as the processes are built efficiently Laserfiche can help any organization increase productivity.

Pros

Laserfiche is constantly innovating. They provide frequent updates to their applications that are often incredibly helpful. The workflow product combined with forms processes and repository document management have made digital transformation for our district easy and efficient.

Cons

The only con I have is if support is needed directly from Laserfiche for issues, instead of going straight to your vendor, there are often large lag times between communication.

### "Easy processes that are user-friendly from function to function."

July 12, 2018

4.0

It helps with our record keeping by efficiently channeling it to the proper digital folders.

Pros

I really like the ability to transition the configuration of sending the documents to their destination from manual to immediate.

Cons

I have had troubles with inserting a document in the finished file in the destination folder. It will not allow me to scan from there and add more pages.

### "Great document management for an end user"

November 1, 2017

5.0

Pros

As an end user, Laserfiche is great for document management. It has helped automate many of our manual processes through custom workflows. Template help keep everything organized by standardizing meta data, which makes searching and sorting super easy.

Cons

There are a lot of options. It can take a little bit to get everything setup so it all works and so all the different document types can be displayed properly.

### "Excellent Document Management Solution"

December 4, 2018

5.0

It has been a wonderful experience with Laserfiche, over storing our information on network shared drives. It has helped us with finding information within documents easily and quickly.

Pros

This software provides a friendly interface to our users and helpful workflows while providing a centralized location with protections in place to keep data safe.

Cons

There is some work on the back end to set up this software, but in the end it is well worth the effort.

### "Laserfiche makes it easy to manage documents"

November 21, 2018

Laserfiche is essential for regulated companies looking to keep customer's information in order and secure.

Pros

When working in a highly regulated industry, document management is key. Laserfiche is the easy way to manage several hundred documents.

Takes a long time to integrate into your existing platforms

November 6, 2018

4.0

I've had Laserfiche for 2 years now, and I'm still struggling to get it fully operational.

Pros

This software will basically do anything you need it to for document management and more.

Cons

The software is way to complicated to build for the average person.

### "What We Have - It's Okay"

March 29, 2023

4.0

3/5. It does what it needs to for the most part, but it can be difficult in the user interface and experience at times.

Pros

Our service rep Chynna is pretty stellar. She's very knowledgeable about the software and does effective training.

Cons

It doesn't mesh as well with our other programs for record retention. Nothing wrong with support, just limitations of the software in general.

### "The best"

July 16, 2019

5.0

Laserfiche has been a great software to work with. Their customer service is good, if you have a problem they are allows there to help you through it. I would recommend this software to anyone.

Pros

Laserfiche is the best software for document imaging. This software is very easy to use and to navigate. It is easy to set up you templates and folders. Plus it comes with a lot of other options, that we have not explored yet, to help with no only your document imaging but with records keeping, keeping track of records requests, work flows, etc. You've got to check this software out if you have not already!!!

Cons

There is not really anything that I do not like about this software. But if there was one thing it would be pricing of some of their other additional options. For small municipalities it makes it hard to have the JustFIO and their other software but you get what you pay for. This software is well worth it though.

### "Great After Learning How To Use It"

June 29, 2022

4.0

Once I learned how to use this software, I loved it! It took a bit of time, but now that I know it, it is great.

Pros

Every employee has their own folder so they can be easily found for lookup.

Cons

I wish I could name the files something I would recognize at a later time. Files are named by the subfolder they are in and the date.

### "Organizes, saves money, process design,"

March 9, 2018

5.0

Pros

The end to end process from collection to destroy / retain and that it has the ability to keep the entire process electronic. I like that they are focusing on a cloud solution that makes the application reachable to businesses of all sizes. The continued research and development along with the support make it a product that changes and supports with the times.

Cons

The cloud needs storage in Canada, ability to apply sequential numbers to documents that would act like a register. You can do this with code and sql tables but it would be great to be able to do it within the form without the requirement of a developer.

### "Easy to Use"

August 16, 2022

5.0

I've used it for a couple of years now as our main software for record management. I'm satisfied with Laserfiche in the capacity that I use it for. I'm not sure how many other places use it for record management, but it's a constant where I work, and I really don't have any complaints. It's easy to use, and does what it's supposed to do.

Pros

I like that Laserfiche isn't complicated. I'm able to transfer files with minimal effort. The separate window that pops up allows me to enter information about the file, that will allow me to search documents without having to go through all of the files. Another thing I like about LF is that if I don't enter the correct information to the file, it shows up in one of my folders, which allows me to go back in and correct.

Cons

I wish there was a way to avoid transferring duplicate files.

### "Review of Laserfiche"

August 20, 2018

5.0

We've been using Laserfiche since 2006 and have drastically cut down on our lease space because we no longer have the need for filing cabinets. Being able to access client info via our web portal is huge for us.

Pros

The ability to pull documents where ever we are... in the office, at home or even out of the country. Our clients appreciate us having the information handy in a timely manner. It does also help keep us organized.

Cons

There are a lot of features to using it, therefore new staff have a long learning curve.

### "Laserfiche"

January 10, 2019

4.0

Pros

Easy to scan things to Laserfiche. You can give the file a name, and make it as detailed as possible so if you ever need to retrieve the scan later, you can get exactly what you are looking for instead of searching through tons of other files.

Cons

If you do not enter enough information about the Scan, it can be pretty hard to find it later on. Sometimes there are duplicates also.

Nothing maybe a more of a how to use instructional video on the various features of use.

### "Laserfiche -- The Final Solutioon for Paper and Processing Problems"

December 31, 2014

5.0

Finding Laserfiche some years ago was a God-Send for me and my company. I wanted to go paperless and thought I had exhausted affordable market-place offerings, yet decided to take one more chance and look at Laserfiche. At first, I was overwhelmed. I thought I had to learn everything, install everything and use everything. However, I found that I only needed to buy what I needed and expand as needed. Laserfiche has exceeded my expectations at every level. From concept to utility, I could not be happier about continuing to do business with Laserfiche. Some of my friends believed other companies had better offerings right up until they examined Laserfiche in total. Anyone looking for a document imaging system that creates simple, elegant document management solutions that help organizations run smarter should invite Laserfiche in for a visit.

### "Great way to retain files"

May 25, 2021

4.0

Overall it is a good product and is great for file retention and having access to the file without having to carry the physical file.

Pros

It is accessible to the whole department. We don't have to track down the file. We can search for documents easily.

Cons

Some of the features have been disabled to me. Although that is not software issue more of an Admin Permission issue.

January 7, 2015

5.0

When I started looking at document management systems to get our records management problems under control, Laserfiche had the easiest, most user-friendly system I could find to implement. With little IT support and awesome Laserfiche support, I was able to get Laserfiche, Records Management Edition, up and running, helping our organization with records management and compliance issues. Laserfiche continues to expand its functionality and is a robust system and deserves a deeper look for anyone comparing systems.

No complaints so far.

Pros

Security seems strong. Well-organized and easy to use. Of course this is from a user standpoint - would be curious to see what the IT guys at the think. I assume it’s regarded highly, otherwise we wouldn’t have it.

Cons

I don’t think there’s anything I dislike.
