Evaluating Alfresco

ignu

I have a few questions on Alfresco, that's hard for me to get a handle on from the wikis/jump box install.

1)   Is it possible to keep documents in the Repository as Word Documents, and export them as PDF or HTML with/ images upon request (or as a final automatic pre-publish step)?
2)   Can Alfresco bundle documents together in a â€œpackageâ€ that share a common release date, and not be published until that release date has passed?
3)   Can Alfresco Handle 500,000 Documents
4)   Can Alfresco allow a user to browse the repository, with permissions to different areas managed by a different ACL than used by workflow users/document editor
5)   How does Alfrescoâ€™s fulltext search stand up to other solutions using MS Index Server?

Thanks,

Len

1) Is it possible to keep documents in the Repository as Word Documents, and export them as PDF or HTML with/ images upon request (or as a final automatic pre-publish step)?

It is possible to automatically convert any uploaded document to PDF / HTML, which does the same. You can also write your own action which does the transformation before allowing your user to download.

2) Can Alfresco bundle documents together in a â€œpackageâ€ that share a common release date, and not be published until that release date has passed?

Yes, with some programming.

3) Can Alfresco Handle 500,000 Documents

We did a benchmark about half a year ago with 100 Million documents, so yes.

4) Can Alfresco allow a user to browse the repository, with permissions to different areas managed by a different ACL than used by workflow users/document editor

Yes, Alfresco supports a very flexible (and extensible) authorization model - different users can have completely different permissions.

5) How does Alfrescoâ€™s fulltext search stand up to other solutions using MS Index Server?

Not sure - our search is based on Apache Lucene, so it's pretty powerful.
