User Testimonials
Quadient InspireTandem Surveys
Likelihood to Recommend
Quadient Inspire is well suited to complex processes and requests. It is very well designed software which includes numerous plug in options for ease of use with other software. They have built in security functions to protect intellectual property and prohibit unauthorized changes. This software is great for people who need control and large feature sets or work with quantities in the millions. Of course, it also works fine on smaller projects. Where it would be overkill is for environments which only need simple variable pieces. Just setting up an address block? If this is your regular job, this software is excessive

We conduct a monthly employee engagement survey and we use Tandem Surveys for this. It helps us in creating surveys instantly and in generating real time reports that we use in our monthly meetings to discuss and plan for actionable strategies. We also use it for market research when we are launching new products and services

Cons
  • Usually quick to de-bug/resolve any issues, currently having a problem saving production profiles. Its more of a little annoyance than a problem and its not a time consuming fix. Maybe I'm just being lazy..
  • No more issues that I have currently come across that haven't already been resolved.

  • It is limited when it comes to integration, you can't integrate it with other apps

Usability
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.

Reliability and Availability
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.

Performance
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.

Support Rating
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

In-Person Training
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.

Implementation Rating
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.

Alternatives Considered
Quadient Inspire is more user friendly as compared to OpenText Exstream. The user interface, the options for editing are very simple in Quadient Inspire, we can see in the layout what all options do we need, which is a bit complex in OpenText Exstream. Both are CCM solutions but vary a bit in terms of user friendliness.

As compared to Google Forms, Tandem Survey is very customizable and professional-looking. When it comes to SurveyMonkey, it is more affordable and does the job well. Tandem Surveys basically has everything you can ask for an online survey that other platforms don't have. It is really good platform and we highly recommend it with other businesses

I am giving this rating because Quadient products are very reliable. Quadient products can be deployed across multiple departments and sites as needed.
