Oracle Aconex

I am using aconex from 2003 from Dubai to now India great experience. easy to find latest drawings and old documents history. and big document evidence for client or contractor where ever to issued documents.

Very well organized and easy to access data for the larger size of the projects and easy to use.

I don't see anything to dislike, but we need to return to the main page to see/search other documents.

Not much. I would note to potential users that this may make sense for slow paced projects with full staffs of documental control teams that have hundreds of hours in their budgets for document control.

The fact that the metadata is so redundant while at the same time unintuitive. If the software was smart enough to extract metadata from a file number or name that would make sense, but it isn't, so everything must be slowly added in triplicate.

This has virtually everything you could think of/ need. As the project is constantly evolving, Aconex keeps track and simplifies the process of reviews, approvals, management, timelines etc. With multiple disciplinarys proving input in one place, the whole process is fast tracked.

The software can be pricey depending on the level of functionality required, however considering the costs associated with variations etc arrising from poor coordination/ poor work flows its a no brainer.

Aconex is a very powerful tool to manage mostly document control and workflows. Has all the tools necessary to that and is very stable platform

This tools requires some training. Not very friendly and has somewhat of an outdated look and feel.
