## Reviews

### "CARA-Managing Informaion in Industries" — 5.0/5

> **Lakshita** | *8 March 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The thing I like most about CARA software is it provides content management features with AI powered automations.
> 
> **Cons**: The thing I don't like about CARA software is that it has very few third party resources and it lacks advanced AI Features.
> 
> Overall experience was Great and the software is great in clinical document management and it provides some good features like document version control

-----

### "CARA is 100% a better product than the Webtop & Firstdoc" — 4.0/5

> **senthil** | *10 September 2019* | Pharmaceuticals | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is fast, ease of use and very good for Admin to troubleshoot and multitasking unlike the previous content management tools like Webtop,D2, Firstdoc.
> 
> **Cons**: Need a good annotation service to be added to CARA.

-----

### "CARA in an highly diverse QM organisation" — 3.0/5

> **Stefan** | *23 July 2020* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Capability to generate  language specific master data / taxonomies which helped the global organisation to stay in control of meta data systems while allowing local inits to adopt the taxonomies to their local needs and habbits.&#10;&#10;Very easy and fast way to hook in local adoptions/ configurations.
> 
> **Cons**: Difficult to manage the local adoptions on a globa level due to missing functionality of managing code segments in central libraries and therby avoid duplication of customizations for local enteties.

-----

### "Cara - Modern intuitive UI" — 4.0/5

> **Anees** | *14 July 2020* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We have moved from FirstDoc to CARA almost 2.5 years back and the response was excellent. We were surprised by the extent of a positive reaction. Never seen such a turnaround in the user sentiments.  &#10;&#10;CARA provides intuitive UI and good OOTB features which enables end-user to locate and work on their content pretty easily. It also provides highly configurable UI for the administrators/power users to deploy the new changes very easily and effectively.&#10;&#10;We are very pleased and thanks to Generis to successfully migrate and transform our system to the new heights
> 
> **Cons**: Generis support can be better and they need to work on the documentation more effectively.
> 
> The overall experience is great. Right from the product selection --\&gt; Communication --\&gt; config movement --\&gt; data transformation --\&gt; Testing  --\&gt; Production go live.  It was one of the best projects that I have ever worked with

### "Easy to use - intuitive Administration\\Control Panel" — 5.0/5

> **William** | *19 September 2019* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like how easy it is to get up and running.  Within hours, we were able to install the product, connect to Documentum and have a basic working User Interface.
> 
> **Cons**: It's a testament to the product that have to nit-pick to find anything.&#10;&#10;Exporting and importing the overall configuration is all or nothing so there is no way to make minor development changes without exporting\\importing everything.  We have a few configuration settings that are customized by environment (i.e. test\\model\\prod) that I have to change manually each time I import changes from Test to Model and Model to Prod.  I would prefer more granular export\\import capabilities when developing to only export\\import the object I am changing.  &#10;&#10;For instance, Dashboards and Custom Actions allow exactly the kind of capabilities that I prefer.  That and the "cleaner look" lead me to using Dashboards much more frequently - almost exclusively.  There are a few features in the more traditional Explorer UI that it would be nice to have in the Dashboard\\Portal UI like drag and drop, etc.
> 
> We have a legacy home grown application that is over 20 years old and on old technology (Mainframe\\COBOL\\CICS).  It is tricky to integrate it with newer technology and one unexpected consequence of this is that it is difficult to retain younger workers with the older technology applications.  Area by area we have been moving them off of the old and onto the new and the user experience is far superior.  Greater search capabilities and options to integrate with modern applications.
