NetExplorer

What do you like best?

In my experience, NetExplorer is very useful for Document version control. Even it is not the main usage, it adapts to control the Document management workflow, from the draft to the approval, and the maintenance/update process. However, it is a file-sharing software and includes features such as backup, data synchronization, and file sharing.

What do you dislike?

I would like to see more integrations, maybe the new versions have them. But in our case the integration with project management tools was necessary, but we couldn't handle it straight from the suite.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

It's very important to evaluate what you really need. Maybe a few years ago this was an outstanding tool, but right now there are many options. So the first you need to do is do that prior evaluation, then go for it. This is a good tool, has good support, and most importantly they offer training from themselves. If you have enough time to evaluate a Demo, try it so you can make the best decision.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

The need to handle the Document management workflow in different places all over the country. These documents were part of the ITIL implantation plan for the IT organization inside the Oil and GAs national company. The fact of being cloud-based allowed us to share and start working inmediately.
