Case Study: Escaping PaperPort – Achieving Stability and Efficiency with FileCenter

Posted on Posted in Case Studies

Background

Meet M. B., a long-time user of document management software who runs a busy office. For years, M. B. relied on PaperPort to manage and organize documents, but the experience was far from ideal. 

Buggy operations and poor technical support were constant frustrations that ultimately led M. B. to vow never to purchase another Nuance product again.

Challenge: The Frustration of Unstable Software

M. B.’s pain points with PaperPort were numerous and significant:

  • Frequent Crashes: PaperPort often crashed, leading to lost work and repeated disruptions in the workflow.
  • Poor Technical Support: When issues arose, the technical support was unhelpful and slow to respond, exacerbating the frustration.
  • Inefficiency: Frequent software issues meant that managing documents took much longer than it should, resulting in wasted time and reduced productivity.

The ongoing challenges created a stressful work environment, making it difficult for M. B. to maintain an efficient and reliable document management system.

Solution: Discovering FileCenter

Desperate for a better solution yet skeptical due to previous experiences, M. B. decided to try FileCenter Pro. Even with some healthy skepticism, M. B. downloaded the free trial and started testing the software. The results were almost immediate and profound.
