Pros
The advanced search finds documents even by words inside the content.
Workflow automations make it easier to approve, assign, and move documents according to the process.
Easily relate documents and objects to each other with metadata. Easily add new types of metadata, document classes and workflows. Easily find documents with metadata-based searches. Documents can be automatically converted to PDF with administrator-controlled sign-offs (version number, date approved, etc.) when finalised.
Having an open and flexible platform allows you to develop according to specific requests, without being limited too much by fixed frameworks or predetermined features.
Very user-friendly and smooth. Feels modern and easy to integrate with other systems. A big plus is Form Designer where we can create and edit our digital forms ourselves. I also really appreciate the support and staff at Sweet who are always accommodating, fast and helpful.

Cons
The initial learning curve can be a bit steep for those coming from traditional systems.
Some integrations require technical configuration, and the mobile app could be more fluid.
Not possible to set separate access rights for metadata and document content.
Administrator tool (M-files Admin) could be more user-friendly, and some administrator functions are not available in M-files Cloud. Free text search works very poorly, often giving no matches unless the search string is exactly right.
Challenges in keeping to schedules and there are long lead times, creating unnecessary delays and inefficiencies in the process.
Satisfied with most things
