We never have to worry about system errors or other issues that may cause downtimes. Reliability is paramount in our business. > > **Cons**: Nothing that stands out really. Maybe a few more notification features, but other than that, I have no recommendations. ----- ### "Both maintain and use this software for forms and email" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *27 April 2018* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Handles system reports easily after initial set up. We have only used this on an iSeries so I'm not sure how it would work in other environments. The set up can be a little confusing when laying out a form. The email portion gives some good basic functionality. > > **Cons**: We were not able to use the client software for developing our forms. This is not a fault of the software but our internal resources. What this required was going through the older interface to create the forms. > > It performed well for our environment and was fairly transparent to the users. ----- ### "ACOM was less expensive than our prior document system. It was easy to setup and to get running." — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *6 November 2017* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The cost is probably the biggest Pro. We also like the ease of use, but in the setup and in the document retrieval. > > **Cons**: As we've added additional documents to load, we've run into some issues with the current Import Utility. You switched us over to use ReadSoft, but when we have issues with that, there doesn't seem to be much support for that product. We now are using both ReadSoft and the Import Utility to get all of our documents in to load. We also run into issues with the software from time to time where the import utility seams to just stop working. We are currently working with Tech Support on that. You can end the service and start it again, and it still doesn't import. So the two cons would be the need for two different import utilities, and just the overall reliability of the import utilities. > > I low cost solution for our document management. ----- ### "My experience with ACOM has been great overall. Designer is simple and support is excellent." — 5.0/5 > **Josh** | *20 November 2017* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The EZDesigner interface makes forms design simple but the product also allows me to use the original green screen interface to manage quick form edits. The product is very full featured and integrates easily with my OS400 based applications. I've had trouble creating very specialized functions on a few of my forms but the support staff has always quickly assisted me in finding a solution to fit my needs. > > **Cons**: I've used other forms design packages in the past and I can honestly say that there aren't many cons. The address book maintenance functions seem to be green screen only and are a little clunky. Some of the other special function setup is also green screen only. > > Easily the best forms package for the IBMI I've used. Simple form design and management with enough power to handle a lot of specialized tasks. ----- ### "ACOM has been really easy to learn and set up. Customer service is amazing too." — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *1 November 2017* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: IT's a set and forget software. Once it's properly installed and set up you won't have to worry about it at all. It's hardly an issue, and if there's one is usually really simple to fix. > > **Cons**: Check print configuration has to be done manually, so it can take a few tries before getting it right. ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/307495/acom-ap-automation?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/307495/acom-ap-automation) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
