    Scenarios where Quadient Inspire is well suited - When we want to create some content which can be reused, as we create blocks in Quadient which has some data in it, and these blocks can be reused. When we want to create consistent content and want to deliver it through omni-channel medium in large volume, as Quadient Inspire makes delivery of large volume communications possible, and it does so in mere seconds. Scenarios where Quadient Inspire is less appropriate - sometimes it feels like editing in a Word document is easier than Quadient Inspire, e.g., when we need to add bullet points in the content.

    Quadient
    • Within CJM: Not easy to share maps with a large group of people, still needs to be done on an individual basis which is time-consuming.
    • Not able to unload all file types into maps. It would be great to have video.
    • There are a lot of third-party suppliers that make up the full services in Inspire. This limits the development that Quadient can do to.

    We are using Quadient Inspire products since last 5 years. And we are able to achieve everything with respect to the customer's needs and desired output. Quadient is adding new very important features every day that make document structure very easy for developers and end users. We would like to stick with Quadient for a long time.

    There are parts of the product that are extremely easy to use, but it can be hard to build it up to get to that point. I'm a power user and I know I've only barely scratched the surface, but the transactional users barely have to lift a finger to get their letters out. There's a lot more that can be done if I had the time and resources to devote to improving our letters more and there are times when the interface is in my way as to meeting those goals, but by and large, it's a swift and easy to use program.

    I am giving this rating because Quadient products are highly available. Most of the time all Quadient products are available. In some cases Quadient always follows the planned schedule and maintenance. They always inform all the partners and clients a day or two in advance so that the clients can work accordingly.

    I want you to rate the performance of the Quadient Inspire 9 out of 10. Because every time we work with Quadient products I never feel any sluggishness and any performance issue. Along with this, one thing that we all should understand is that the performance of any application also depends on the computer hardware. So along with the software application, your hardware should also meet the minimum requirements.

    Overall Quadient team is very responsive and willing to come to the table and provide valuable information and resolution for problems. What tier of support you have would defiantly impact the experience you have. Had some challenges with a few members of the support team , but when brought up with the vendor it was quickly resolved

    I had a couple of weeks of training back in 2005 on the Quadient premises in Hradec Kralowe. The instructor was just great! Besides showing as normal functionalities, he went so far to solve our concrete challenges. He actually encouraged me to become a "real" programmer. I have written my first lines of code in Inspire (GMC PrintNetT) and never looked back.

    As you consider your digital transformation, think of the people who may object. They have valid criticisms, valuable insights and information critical to your success. Quadient’s advice is to build a strong internal team and confront these questions early. When everyone understands the project from their perspective, the project has a better chance of success.

    The above drop down would not allow me to pick the similar products that I have used previously. Planet Pres : Good in its time. Now very slow compared with Quadient. Compart: As quick... If not slightly quicker than Quadient. This does not counteract how difficult this software is to use. It has no GUI interface and even advanced programmers struggle to use it. Both of these products are inferior to Quadient when it comes to implementing within a normal organisation.

    Not really. It's not cheap, but it's a great value for what you get. This is enterprise-level software and the cost reflects that. The pay-per-page aspect makes sense too. We get a lot of sheets included in our contract and we use them all. It's a good contract with pricing that makes sense.

    I am giving this rating because Quadient products are very reliable. Quadient products can be deployed across multiple departments and sites as needed. We can integrate Quadient products with other applications and tools in a very effective, efficient and flexible way. We can deploy Quadient products in Cloud as well.

    The PSO team is very involved and knowledgeable. Some times there are availability issues due to the number of companies they are supporting but they do their best to deliver on time. PSO cost aren't cheap, but they deliver a big bang for the buck especially on critical projects or involving them in strategic approaches/decisions.

    Quadient
    • Since purchasing Inspire we have won many business opportunities as it enables us to create documents we couldn't do before, for example: Council Tax Bills.
    • It is a lot faster at processing than our previous software. We had one job we had to extract addresses from, it was 56,000 records from a 5.5million line text file. Our previous software took 26 hours to pull out the addresses, Quadient Inspire took 43 seconds!
    • We are able to automate processes through Inspire via CLI batch files, where a job would normally take 30 minutes to set up and process, a bit of time spent on the workflow and automation script means we can just double click a batch file for repeat jobs and the print file is created in seconds.

    Adobe Customer Journey Analytics B2B Edition Screenshots

    Screenshot of Account Based Marketing Engagement using the Journey Canvas feature. Effective Account Based Marketing requires a deep understanding of the buying journey at the account level to determine the most impactful marketing activities to drive deal closer. Identify which experiences - both online and offline - are most impactful in driving closed opportunities. Journey canvas maps every interaction across accounts, buying groups, opportunities, campaigns and channels for clarity on what's working and what isn't. The Journey Canvas feature in CJA B2B Edition lets users see a detailed path for a specific high value account or buying group, including all known online and offline interactions. And users can contextualize key events, such as an MQL trigger and an Opportunity creation. Plus, Sales Development Reps can see the interaction history for specific accounts before outreach, allowing for highly relevant conversations.Screenshot of Cohort Segmentation. This identifies key groups of buyers to publish to CDP for activation in paid media, personalization or email orchestration. Cohort tables lets users group B2B entities - Accounts, Opportunities, Buying Groups - based on a shared starting point and track their progress across pipeline stages over time. By analyzing behavior patterns of buying groups, marketing and sales teams can understand the time to reach key milestones in the buying journey and determine which marketing efforts lead to faster pipeline progression.Screenshot of In-Person Events. The impact of in-person event attendance can be optimized by reporting on engaged accounts and viewing activity across multiple in-person events. Flow lets you visualize the paths accounts and buying groups take between key interactions or stages over time. Understanding what behaviors led to a key milestone, such as registering for an in-person event or flagging a lead as an MQL, helps both marketing and sales teams understand the most influential experiences that lead to conversion. For in-person events, the steps leading up to registration may include previous in-person event attendance, as well as digital experiences such as downloading white papers and case studies.Screenshot of Sales Stage Progression. The fallout report in CJA B2B Edition gives you sales funnel insights by letting you visualize conversion and drop off rates between predefined steps in a sequential journey. The fallout report can answer key questions around which steps in the sales stages caused the most drop off towards deal close.
