Anyone unable to find software specific to their needs- look no further. Gazelle Platform will suit you. The staffing world is suited as there are more variables than one person and one client. There are more variables. This software would cover anything but is maybe not needed for a simple user. This is to solve the problem of dynamics being outside the norm.

M‑Files is great for companies with multiple locations. Drive letters can become cumbersome to use and collaborate with colleagues and M‑Files fills that gap. The check out/check in system is great and allows only one editor at a time. This can be good and bad depending on the situation.

Cons
  • Complicated dashboard
  • Too many options for different parts of the process on one page
Read full review
  • More user friendly customization options that do not require knowledge of coding/scripting. For example, prompting the creation of a new document from a template in a workflow.
  • When using the 'insert property' feature in a Word doc, I would love to convert dates from a mm/dd/yy format to be written out (such as September 21, 2018). Or possibly even just to pull the year or the month from a selected date to insert into a document.
  • I've often wished that I could find more detailed tutorials online for some features.

M-files meets our almost all needs, we dont have other option to replace m-files. it saves lots, like Hardware because of Vault Feature means we can create many vaults (mini-servers) in m-files in other solutions we need more hardware for more installations.

Usability
No answers on this topic
It is a powerful system that can locate content fast and effectively. The system takes quite some time to setup initially. It can be hard for M-Files support to know how businesses operate and how they want to use the system in a way that works for them. The customization makes it great for companies to cater to their own needs. Once the system is set up in a way that makes sense for the business, the user experience is positive. There is room for improvement in the notifications, workflow, and support areas.

I noticed some lagging with the integration with Microsoft Office but not so much that I would not use it. It has gotten better with updates. to be fair the issues were when Office 2013 first came out.

Usually when I need help from them I got support and it was very good and focused to solve my problem. I didn't have so many problems, but when used it worked. I just would like to have a support in my native language, but I can understand that sometimes is hard for the companies.

The key insight is that the most important thing is to have a open mind. The application is easy to use, but if you have a company with different views and it is not aligned could be a huge problem. So the company transformation is required together with the application. Ensure to use as much as possible the capabilities of the application helps to have best ROI.

Alternatives Considered
Gazelle Platform is much more advanced and user-friendly for a candidate scheduling multiple events. This triggers our candidates to easily schedule more interviews which is exactly what we need to save time and secure the candidate a job. Gazelle Platform is the only available software for what we needed. It’s not a simple calendar, it’s use is complex which is what was needed at my last staffing job.

I've compared recently with Box, but they still predicate their storage on WHERE instead of WHAT, which means if it isn't in a specific folder, you won't find it. Some documents may relate to multiple projects. In M-Files instead of putting a copy of a file in many folders (thus having many copies) you can build out the relationships, so there is only 1 copy of a document which prevents multiple "originals" from being developed separately.

Return on Investment
  • Gazelle Platform saves us time on taking calls for appointments for multiple location job interviews from many candidates looking for work.
  • This has freed up a customer service rep to assist with other duties, so the ROI is positive.
  • The initial cost of the Gazelle Platform is made up immediately, as the software will save you so much time and manpower.
