    Great tool with limitations

    3

    Meridian workflows were a great enhancement that were easy to setup & work directly with internal processes & standards. The portal has been a bit more limited, and we found that we had to change process to work within the portal, as many of these are with outside contractors it was easy enough to use the workflow within the portal.

    Pros:
    This gives control back to the host for our external contract collaborators, as well as moves much of the tasks back on the contractor away from internal support. We have been managing the documents for external contractors & sending them the documents to update. Now we just manage the documents and allow them to do their own design updates while we manage the documents.
    Cons:
    We love Meridian as a DM tool internally & expected the Portal to help with all the external contractors that do design engineering on our documents, which it has helped a lot, but we still find it a bit cumbersome & time consuming getting the documents into portal & upon completion back in Meridian on-prem.

    Reasons for choosing Meridian

    Meridian had what none of the others did at the time, direct access from the applications we used (App integration) as well as the timeline for viewing revision history which is excellent if we could get the viewing back.

    Pros:
    Meridian provides a comprehensive solution for Electronic Document Management due to which engineering teams keep current with the latest versions of their engineering documents and drawings. It maintains the correct relationship between the documents and accurate technical information. It provides document version control to prevent users from working on incorrect versions.
    Cons:
    User/ Security management needs to be more robust and foolproof. It needs to venture for other web servers to provide more seamless access to users over the web.

    Pros:
    Meridian sets the bar for drawing management. The workflows between as-builts and projects are perfect for our company needs. Being able to search for keywords in CAD files is a huge time saver.
    Cons:
    Only thing I would find more useful is more customization on the depth of folders in default view. We have custom views to meet the need currently, but not everyone remembers to change the view each time they login.

    Pros:
    Meridian Enterprise is (one of) the best EDM Systems on the market with efficient and effective search capabilities to edit and store the latest accurate documentation.
    Cons:
    Meridian Portal is still not on par and needs a lot more configuration as it is not user friendly and has issues communicating well with Power. Many users get very confused because of the minimal information on the document status in the workflow. Meridian Power and Explorer are much more intuitive and if something is entered incorrectly one gets an error message with clarification. In Portal you can't see what went wrong and it causes issues after the fact.

    Reasons for choosing Meridian

    In a 137 requirements bid tab Meridian had the least amount of failed issues.

    Reasons for switching to Meridian

    A very old system w/o sufficient workflow capabilities and very difficult search options to find the documents one is looking for.

    Pros:
    Meridian Enterprise organizes our assets by storing them in 'vaults'. All assets can be documented with drawings, graphics, maintenance information and so on. This makes it possible to document large infrastructure projects and to disclose this information to a larger public. Also, it can be linked to other information systems, so the information becomes even more accessible.
    Cons:
    It takes some time to learn how to use it. Also, for full access, a desktop client is required. It does not operate in a pure web based manner.
