Autodesk Docs vs. DocuWare

Since my favorite feature is that it brings everyone together, I find it appropriate to interpret it from this perspective. The platform created for all project stakeholders to work together in real time helps increase project efficiency, reduce errors and minimize delays. It creates real-time data, analysis and reporting that will ensure increased and high project performance, which is a quantitative contribution to project management.

We can use Docuware Cloud as a checks and balances program for our application processing in our data department. This is a time saver and allows us to access information at our multiple locations, as well as we have clients in various states. We can assign documents to others throughout the processing of applications, and this has allowed us to keep better track of our documentation with clients.

• It helps the design team carry out projects more efficiently by facilitating access to up-to-date documents
• It provides the opportunity to share, edit and collaborate on project documents in the cloud environment.
• It supports remote working and eliminates the need for employees to be together for the project or even be in the same city or country.

Incentivized

• Control of the flow of online processes
• Automation of the company processes
• Online forms and digitization of processing documents

• It is a bit expensive for small construction companies or project offices, and it is more difficult to reach, especially for countries with high exchange rates such as Turkey.
• It cannot integrate with other non-Autodesk software we use within the company.
• Being dependent on the internet is a problem. Of course, I know that being cloudy requires internet, but it may be an advantage to at least keep the used files in its own memory for a while.

Incentivized

• No active directory integration, this doubles up user management.
• No Outlook integration. Would be nice to be able to interact with Docuware from email.
• No mobile application. We have many remote users that would benefit from this.

Docuware has become a vital part of our organization.

Fairly intuitive for average users.

We use a third-party company to assist in the support process, and they have been great to work with. Quick turn around on issues and almost immediate communication concerning support tickets. They are more than willing to consult with our IT partners as well, which is a must for our business.

We actually moved from DocuWare to Plate IQ because Plate is restaurant specific and shares many item codes, SKU #'s, etc from major vendors. However, we continue to use DocuWare for other data management because it was so useful to us while we used it for AP.

Incentivized

• Purchasing approval control and monitoring. Allows us to keep tighter hold of the budget.
• Had to spend considerably more than expected. We needed to hire a developer to build integrations.
