The system is designed for integrators or IS to snap in third-party viewer utilities. No HTML-rendition ability is included. Users can have compound documents where a master document is made up of several component files. The system can expose the relationships between files, which can have hierarchical parent-child connections. Files can also cross-reference other files.
Administration is mixed.
The administration console works from NovaManage, not NovaWeb, which will be an inconvenience for those administrators who like to manage away from the native client. The workflow capabilities are solid. The system includes a graphical workflow designer, and workflows can be nested for modular development and reuse. In one helpful touch, users can attach notes or instructions to documents forwarded from one step to the next. However, users cannot design workflows over the Web.
