What do you like best about Upland Qvidian?

Any product including those produced by my company has room for improvement and keeping up with changing requirements. Qvidian does a good job keeping up.

Qvidian was developed over time by proposal managers for proposal management in the real world. The feature set serves the benefits required for scalable and flexible compliance with real customer demands including:

• Content management

• Document automation

• Workflow management Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upland Qvidian?

Qvidian is very responsive to customer ideas in adding requested features when possible, including some I suggested. The biggest change I'd like at this stage of my association with the product is the provision of simple, license-free (within the enterprise) access to the content database. The current seat license model does not enable casual users' introduction to and exploration of the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Upland Qvidian:

This review is anonymous only because I am not authorized to represent my company as an endorsement or reference.

Ask your Qvidian account representative for the opportunity to privately talk with experienced users. Be careful, however, to ensure that the users have real experience and are sufficiently trained in the use of the product. Too many users expect to use any product (Qvidian, those produced by my company, and others) with no training then are disappointed with their lack of success. As intuitive as Qvidian is, it does require minimal training and setting of expectations.

Join the Qvidian User Community and review the discussions, knowledge base, training, etc. Visit the Learning Resources videos, which demonstrate the product at a more practical than typical demos.

If your buying cycle timing works out, attend the annual user conference.

Don't make your buying decision in a vacuum. Work with colleagues including proposal managers, account representatives, management, and your purchasing department. Adoption will be much smoother if such groups feel they contributed to the decision.

Do not try to take all training at once. Adopt a just-in-time approach. The product capabilities are too deep to be properly absorbed when first introduced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Upland Qvidian solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our initial business problem was replacement of the Pragmatech RFP Machine content library. We've successfully used Qvidian as a global resource for about three years.

Within the past year, our sales force asked if we also had the capability to support "point-and-click" proposals such as available at other companies. Qvidian enabled us to provide that capability with Proposal Automation.

We're now piloting workflow management capabilities with initial good results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Upland Qvidian?

Ease of use and ability to ensure content is reviewed and confirmed up to date. Allows SMEs to review multiple records at once and ensures RFP writers can be confident they are using the correct information. We particularly like the templates that can be used for DDQs where the same questions are asked every year so the answers can be linked to the question and the updated responses pulled into the template. This saves a huge amount of time and effort in finding the correct answer.

Also really like the support team's assistance and the fact that they incorporate our requirements into future releases of the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upland Qvidian?

The reporting could be a bit more user-friendly but apart from that there are no real negatives for the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Upland Qvidian solving and how is that benefiting you?

Qvidian provides an excellent storage facility for the responses that are used regularly in RFPs and DDQs. The search function makes it easy to find the correct content and the ability to take multiple documents out of the system for review makes it easy to ensure the correct information is always being used.

Response from Brian Rosinski of Upland Qvidian

Qvidian offers a variety of ways to manage permissions, including User or Role level permissions on folders and content, which can be assigned individually or in bulk. As well as application permissions to provide various levels of access to all folders and content. We would be happy to discuss ways to further improve flexibility and ease-of-use.
