Additional Details

—

When signing up with an account and selecting a plan, a unique API Key is offered that grants access to send API Calls to any of the pdfRest API Tools. Each calendar month, the total number of API Calls will be tallied, and users are billed for the base plan plus any overage accrued when the monthly API Calls are in excess of the plan's monthly allotment. This count starts over at zero on the first day of each month. Each plan has a maximum upload file size limit and a time duration indicating how long files will persist on the processing server before removal.

User Testimonials
	HCL Domino	pdfRest — PDF API Service
Likelihood to Recommend	HCL Technologies Domino is best in medium-sized businesses of 20-100 employees. It's too complicated to implement in very small companies unless you have good external resources. It scales up very well for larger companies but the pressures of users wanting particular "brand-name" software can become difficult. If you want a restricted "extranet/portal" system for a limited set of members it's a great system, particularly if you add a Domino CRM on top. Unlike Microsoft, you never have to resort to command-line tools, like PowerShell, in Domino to get things done.

Pros	HCL Technologies Domino support for policy-based user registration and deployment eases end-user creation. User access to databases is simplified via group membership and defined roles. Email replication to clustered servers is simplified through connection/replication documents stored centralized address book Group calendaring enabled at client level controls.

Cons	HCL Technologies User interface needs to be modernised. Incentivized NADIR PATIR Software Director Read full review	pdfRest No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	HCL Technologies We use SharePoint, SQL and Teams but only for the things that they excel in. For example, we use teams for small team interactions (including external participants). We use teams for meetings too. We've discovered that Teams collaboration is not as full-functional as Domino and more importantly, that our members (financial services) do not trust the Open Office365 cloud. SharePoint and Team collaborative features are often blocked in our member organizations. Domino is much easier to identify and unblock at the firewall level. It's much easier to restrict collaboration to approved options in Domino. Incentivized Gavin Bollard IT Manager Read full review	pdfRest No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	HCL Technologies The immediate impact on my organization as a non-profit is cost. Enterprise pricing for a Domino solution is exponentially more inexpensive than more popular applications. Of the most obvious impacts is user familiarity. Given a vast majority of the employment pool having familiarity with MS products, orienting new employees to Domino\Notes is burdensome. Adoption is slow and resistance is high. Hiring Domino administrators and developers is increasingly challenging. The recent sale of the Domino platform away from IBM is concerning.
