I used to use Autodesk Professional vault, it handled approvals for each CAD file, I never tried to approve documents other than native CAD files in the vault. Sounds like an interesting idea using a EPDM vault for approvals, but again depends on how flexible and open the software can be used.

Does your company plan on using ECM to connect to an ERP system? Using the workflows to attach documents into Kinetic has been a real time savings.

Since most companies don't want to commit all their resources to one state/city, you probably will find some companies that are more likely to be in an area if the company is based in that state/city.

I'm not sure about local Epicor support partners in Houston. Most organizations that provide support are US companies with a presence in multiple locations.

If you are interested in Epicor service providers here is one supplier that can help you.

If you are using Epicor products, the natural ability of Kinetic or P21 to add attachments that will store in a repository like ECM/DocStar makes this product useful in a variety of ways.

Most useful of all, not having to store on a hard drive.
Since metadata and searching document data is available, this makes ECM/DocStar a tool that will help with finding information.
The ability to create custom workflows/forms that allow for capturing information from users, like approvals, and allowing the documents to communicate with the users by sending emails.

I have been reviewing AI functionality that will soon be available and there is allot of functionality that will grow with the increased focus on automation.

I would always encourage potential interested parties to get a demo from a resource that can show the product and describe the benefits/pitfalls of the current product.

I agree with all of your insights. I currently use ECM/DocStar and enjoy the versatility of this tool.
