What do you like best about Laserfiche?

Laserfiche is an extremely robust solution, allowing us to create solutions for every business process challenge we've tackled to date. The company is extremely responsive, with an active online community. If you have any doubt, Google "Laserfiche Answers" to see the quantity and quality of information available. If you don't have any coding knowledge, you can still create simple forms/processes. But if you do, this product allows you to get super fancy with your designs. We regularaly use Laserfiche Forms, Laserfiche Workflow, and Laserfiche Repository. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Laserfiche?

The only thing I can think that Laserfiche could improve on is the ability to link separate business processes together (to run together or otherwise link). The ability to launch one business process from within another would be a game changer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Laserfiche solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have staff and learners spread across a broad geogrphic area. Laserfiche allows for the electronic completion and routing of forms for instant approvals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Laserfiche?

One of the standout features of Laserfiche is its user-friendly interface. The software is designed to be intuitive, making it easy for users to navigate and manage documents efficiently. The search functionality is particularly impressive, allowing users to locate documents quickly by searching for titles or specific fields within the documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Laserfiche?

Additionally, while Laserfiche is pushing for cloud adoption, some users feel that the cloud version lacks certain features and integration options available in the on-premises setup. This can limit the flexibility and functionality for those who prefer or require cloud solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Laserfiche solving and how is that benefiting you?

Laserfiche is helping us process thousands of invoices per day by allowing us to bring the invoices into the system and send them out for approvals based on division and approvers approval threshold. The invoices are also able to be easily coded for payments. Once all of that is completed Laserfiche then creates a CSV file to be sent to our ERP system so the vendors can be paid.

What do you like best about Laserfiche?

No mattery what issue/task/problem my departments come to me with, I can immediately find a way for Laserfiche to solve it. Laserfiche has near limitless "solvability" built into it. Ranging from simple forms that collect simple data, to advanced forms that execute workflows that store data in tables and then creates a customized PDF based on a template and word merge fields.

Outside of public-facing interactivity, it also has the ability to automate redundant tasks inside the repository.

This software has saved The City of Arlington hundreds of hours of manual processing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Laserfiche?

Unfortunately as much as I want to love the modern designer, it simply does not have the functionality as the classic designer. CSS and JS cannot transition 1 to1, and so I am continually forced to work in the classic designer - which is not a bad thing as that is what I was "brought up" on. I hope LF 12 allows classic CSS and JS code to transition seamlessly to the modern designer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Laserfiche?

Laserfiche is a great tool for automation and retention. The limits of what you can do with it is really the limit of someone's imagination. Very customizable and even people who are not highly technical can find success working with Laserfiche. Customer support is usually really good as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Laserfiche?

A bit expensive. Sometimes the ala-cart module options can be confusing. It's nice to not have to pay for things you aren't going to use, but if you have most of the modules like we do, it can be a little tricky to navigate all of the systems to see how they are working together. Sometimes the repository searches are slow. The company is really pushing cloud for all of it's users, but cloud does not offer all of the feature and integration options as an on prem setup does.

What do you like best about Laserfiche?

Upon first glance most believe Laserfiche is simply a repository for records (especially with municipal government), but my favorite part is the automation that can be so simply/easily implemented. I believe with Workflow and Forms I can certainly improve any process, and for the most part can fully-automate it. I am not full-time IT, and yet I have been able to become proficient in the behind the scenes work to improve the work life for fellow staff, the electeds, and even the public. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Laserfiche?

I really dislike their different licensing formats with Rio, Avante, etc. These random words are thrown around as if we all understand and yet that is the hardest information to find. Because of the different licensing options with in these formats, I will find staff frustrated that they cannot be full users rather than participants for simple things. That said, if we were able to have one or two full-time Laserfiche programmers in the city, we would be able to set up plenty of forms and workflows to eliminate the need for staff to directly interact with Laserfiche Client.

What problems is Laserfiche solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have just started at Tukwila after working 10 years for the City of Federal Way. I am bringing a new understanding of Laserfiche to the table here in Tukwila. We are currently working to input the data from our Access Database (insert shriek) into more robust contract templates so that the information and the records themselves are stored together and search capabilities are enhanced. This will make it so staff and the public can more easily locate their files. There are so many processes that I am hoping to move over to Laserfiche. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Laserfiche?

Laserfiche takes the guesswork out of managing your documents. It shines a light on the benefit of a centralized document management system versus a network drive or other cloud-based storage. I also like the automation aspect, that is available in Workflow, that automates file storage and records management in the repository, and the automation found in Forms that automates the processing of forms, and their movement from person to person in an organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Laserfiche?

Nothing, I love this product. It has been a lifesaver for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Laserfiche:

There is no other market tool that provides a system that manages a document's life cycle as completely as Laserfiche. When considering their system, make sure to look at the Workflow piece, Laserfiche Forms, and Records Management as part of your solution; they work so well together that it is difficult to think of using their system without those pieces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Laserfiche solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are taking people out of the document management process. The primary benefit is that people can focus on more value-adding work instead of spending time tracking paper, filing paper, and storing paper. A document's life cycle should be managed electronically; not a burden people have to work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Laserfiche?

How quick an easily we can spin up a new business process. Utilizing the tools available, you can build a process in as little as an hour or less. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Laserfiche?

The item I run into the most is just the more advanced features, classic forms vs the new forms, some options are not available. However, having a great resource partner makes up for that difference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Laserfiche solving and how is that benefiting you?

My company, like many others, have struggled with business automation and what solutions to go with. As we have been growing we have need the ability to scale out efficiently with out the need to having to add head count. The Laserfiche solution is allowing us to quickly and accurately build new automations saving us time and money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Laserfiche?

I love that Laserfiche is simple enough that someone without a huge technical background can use it. Using Laserfiche I have been apart of several organization wide implemenations covering areas such as Records Management, Financial Aid processing, Workforce Development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Laserfiche?

None of the issues mentioned below are deal breakers just a combination of issues I have seen in my experience using Laserfiche.

1. Forms needs more extensive customizations for emails and for task and re-assignments.

2. Public-facing forms with required fields have been coming with all the required fields empty.

3. Random periods of system slowness have plagued our environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Laserfiche:

I would suggest that you make sure when setting up your environment that you go a little beyond the recommended specs. Laserfiche, depending on the amount of users in place and processes and/or workflows running can bog down a system. We initially went with the exact minimum specs and found ourself increasing all of them within a year of implementation.

I would also recommend getting those who you may potentially use Laserfiche involved early in the discovery process. In my past experience this will make those future implementations go alot smoother.

Also, try your best to become a direct customer with Laserfiche rather than a reseller or VAR. Nothing against our reseller, but I just feel alot more confident in the speed of problems resolution when you can have a direct line of contact with Laserfiche instead of having a middle man for support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Laserfiche solving and how is that benefiting you?

Currently we have completely automating a Survey submission and data entry process for our Air Quality department. Our Workforce department is about 85% automated with the use of Laserfiche. This has allowed us to reach and services more clients across North Central Texas.

Our records retention program has vastly improved with the use of Laserfiche Transparent Records Management. Our records are automatically cut-off based on pre-determined cutoffs that match our compliance requirements. This also assists us with our legal matters as items that frozen due to litigation can be done quickly and efficiently.

We were able to reduce storage costs by 50% by scanning documents that we were paying an offsite vendor to maintain.

Through public portal and the Laserfiche app were able to successfully transition our workforce operations to 85% remote. This allowed us to continue to serve our communities despite the Covid-19 pandemic shutting down most of our serviced areas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Laserfiche?

Laserfiche has helped us move away from paper process to electronic process that can be started by internal and external users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Laserfiche?

Workflow has been the most intimidating part, but I am slowly conquering that mountain! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Laserfiche solving and how is that benefiting you?

Form routing and form formatting. Before, we used various forms (Fillable PDF, paper forms, etc) that had different formats throughout the years and it was increasing difficult to get users to use the newest version of the form. With Laserfiche, they are always using the latest form and form routing. The output is uniform no matter which department submitted it making it easier to read for the end user.

What do you like best about Laserfiche?

My favorite Laserfiche product has to be Workflow. It us so much more robust and flexible than workflow products that ship with our other applications, specifically PowerSchool BusinessPlus Erp. Creating a workflow in LaserficheWorkflow is easy with its drag and drop features. It provides such a wide variety of tasks that is our go to product to provide integration with other systems to add functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Laserfiche?

Each year there are upgrades to the software which provide beneficial enhancements. Not like other software vendors who simply repackage their 'fixes' as new upgrades. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Laserfiche solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have created and implemented a Resign/Retire form which disseminates the information regarding the employee's separation to all relevant parties. Using the workflow component, we insert their resignation/retirement information directly into our ERP system which does not have a way to do this other than manual entry.
