Cons

“Some of the pain points are the cost of licensing, not having the ability for multiple collaborators to edit the same document simultaneously, and search functionality being tough for users who aren't as familiar with document numbers/names.”

“The performance on "on prem" version, pdf publishing time and constant issues with pdf not beeing generated, issues with custom forms created by MC.”
