OpenText Web CMS vs. Oracle WebCenter Content

OpenText TeamSite is well-suited to large, enterprise-wide implementations where customization, content governance, and dynamic content distribution is needed or prioritized. It is probably not ideal for smaller sites with simple architecture and few resources to manage custom implementation.

If your company is large and uses other Oracle products, Oracle WebCenter Content is probably a worthwhile investment. It integrates well with other Oracle applications and has the potential to help automate some of your existing processes. If you do not use other Oracle products, I would say there are better alternatives out there that are probably more user-friendly and cost effective.

• It provided one single repository with a URL link to access each AP invoice.

• Any images in the emails sent by suppliers (supplier logos in the signature) are treated as invoices by WebCenter Content software.
• We have an invoice with 4 lines and each line has its own project manager. Ideally, each invoice line should be sent for approval to respective project managers. However, WebCenter Business Process management was sending all the lines to all project managers.
• The user experience of Oracle WebCenter Content can be drastically improved. It is not up to the mark.

The challenges with converting to a completely new system create quite a barrier to switching to anything else. If we find another system that offers guaranteed improvements to the user interface -- as well as as a more coherent set of options for data interchanges with current and future enterprise data sources -- we would be more interested in swithing to that new product. Of course, the expense in purchasing competitor system, along with the costs of migrating all current content, along with retooling all existing workflows in place, would be carefully weighed against the benefits incurred from a switch-over.

Overall, it's a solid package with the potential to offer much functionality with appropriate resources applied. There are a few issues with the authoring interface that OpenText should address before its a top shelf authoring experience.

It meets all required functionality requirements -- but handles none of them in an exceptional manner

Our technical resources engage with OpenText TeamSite so I don't have direct experience. However, critical issues that we need help with seem to get the attention they deserve without issue. However, training and user resources for business owner roles are a bit lacking and some annoying issues with the authoring interface should be addressed sooner.

We were looking for an automated invoice processing solution. As we are already on Oracle ERP, it made sense for us to go for Oracle Fusion payables with Oracle WebCenter Content. We have a good relationship with Oracle and Oracle promised us priority support during the time of implementation.
