What do you like best about Upland FileBound?

FileBound offers a tremendous amount of functionality at entry level cost. The features contained in FileBound are extremely useful for automating a variety of document based processes but these features are usually only found in extremely expensive enterprise level products. FileBound brings expensive product functionality to the table for mid-sized businesses that are not able or not willing to spend large amounts of capital on enterprise level software products.

The greatest thing about FileBound, in my opinion, is the flexibility to use the product within any department in an organization to tackle multiple and diverse business problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upland FileBound?

Due to the large amount of functionality within FileBound there have been some stability issues with past versions of the product. When rolling out new versions of the product in the past certain pieces of functionality have become unstable or unpredictable, requiring FileBound to review and fix. The good news is that FileBound is quick to respond when any issues arise and they work diligently to fix any issues as soon as they arise, leading to many of the stability issues being addressed and fixed by FileBound in previous versions via patches or upgrades. I am happy to report that the currently available version, version 7, is much more stable and reliable than past versions, while including new functionality that has helped the product address specific business needs and become more useful to businesses of all sizes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Upland FileBound:

Make sure that you have any business processes you are planning on implementing in FileBound mapped out completely and in very much detail. This will help you ensure that you are re-creating the client's business process as it currently exists.

Additionally be prepared for scope creep and be prepared to push back on it. As clients start to see and learn about the different features within FileBound they become a "kid in a candy store" and want every feature they see implemented in their new process. This is all well and fine and understandable, but you must be prepared to tell the client "not yet", and make sure you get the system implemented first. Trying to include scope creep in an initial implementation is a recipe for disaster, and will very easily cause system implementation to fail. It is best to first recreate the business process in FileBound as it is currently used so that users completely understand what they are doing in the system on a day to day basis. Once the system is implemented you can move onto "Phase 2 and Beyond", which is adding features and functionality that the client would like to improve their current process with.

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

The business problems we are solving with FileBound typically relate to paper pain within an organization. We have helped clients tackle paper problems ranging from backfile conversions and storage needs to electronic Business Process Management (BPM) to electronically capture and route documents through an organization for review. We have used FileBound in scenarios across Accounts Payable (to route and approve invoices for payment), Human Resources (to provide an Employee On-Boarding System) and within Purchasing (to create a Vendor Purchasing On-Boarding System).

What do you like best about Upland FileBound?

Every business process depends on content. When you need to quickly add content management, e-forms and workflow to your business processes FileBound by Upland is an excellent choice. As a systems integrator, I really appreciate the web-based architecture that I can easily implement on site or in the cloud and customize for each client. The e-forms help my clients move away from paper-based workflows that generate tedious labor, to electronic workflows that generate Big Data to drive better performance.

What do you dislike about Upland FileBound?

Browser-based user interfaces can make consistency issues in the user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Upland FileBound:

Paper documents are the original way systems were integrated in the past. Today, if you see paper documents piling up, that is a sure sign that your process is overdue for automation. As you speed up your old paper processes by replacing them with e-forms and automation you will soon learn how easy it is to reproduce those wins in project after project. Just make sure that Project One is in a critical business process with an easily measurable ROI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Paperwork reduction, process automation, better security, better customer experience, improved regulatory compliance, improved data collection for analytics that drive better planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Upland FileBound?

FileBound is a good product to provide document management of active and inactive records. The cloud solution makes the expenditure small enough for most clients to be able to cope with while the on premise solution gives IT the control they crave.

Security and audit trails are excellent and the reporting mechanism available for higher end users is appreciated by many clients who must be able to prove who is accessing what, when and why. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upland FileBound?

No ECM solution is perfect, FileBound is consistently improving through upgrades to make the software features meet client requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Records and document management. Physical space has been reclaimed with the removal of filing cabinets, boxes, and piles of paper. Clients can now find what they need quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Upland FileBound?

The product is fairly user friendly and easy to navigate and is also relatively easy to train end users on data input and document retrieval. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upland FileBound?

From an administration standpoint I feel that I spend too much time trying to recover deleted documents and files. Although in later versions the quick delete (hidden from users view only) was made the default setting making restores quicker and easier by no longer requiring a full backup system recovery, it does still appear to be too easy for users to mistakenly delete documents. A document or file restore does require SQL knowledge to run statements for database manipulation to retrieve the deleted documents and files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Upland FileBound:

Weigh the overall licensing costs including server, client seat, maintenance, and support fees which have increased in recent years since we began using the product. Talk to others doing the same type of business for feedback and insights. Consider any data migration costs or headaches including down time if moving to FileBound from another system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are leveraging FileBound as a tool to capture and integrate document images with our case processing field driven data management system. The largest benefit is that end users are able to have all data and images for a given file in the same place. Although we also use FileBound as a stand-alone data capture and retrieval system, the main benefit for our organization by far is the integration piece. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Upland FileBound?

Filebound was mostly used for our accounts payable department and with over 40 branches the system was able to scan, organize and submit all invoices will keeping them tied to that branch. Corporate was then able to print check in a mass batch. This saved an immense amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upland FileBound?

Sometimes the loading of images and documents can take sometime, since there are so many documents this can take time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

we wanted the 40 plus branches to enter in their own payables instead of have corporate enter the A/P, then after the branch entered the invoices corporate could approve online, this actually saved each corporate accounts payable employee 2 days Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
