How ECM software works
Enterprise Content Management (ECM) software, sometimes referred to as document management software is a cost-effective, automated way to digitally transform how you manage your information, including the storage, retrieval, and sharing of documents to improve productivity and make common tasks simplified.
Product Features
Effortless digital transformation
Enterprise Content Management transforms paper-based processes into digital information giving you immediate access to the data you need via a central repository. You’ll make informed decisions faster than ever before giving you an advantage over competitors while eliminating paper and storage costs
Powerful search and retrieval
Use flexible search tools to locate information in seconds using any combination of keywords, phrases, addresses and much more. Then, share that information with your colleagues in or out of the office through a web-based platform that includes document routing and email notifications.
Security and compliance
Protect your records with security that controls access based on permissions while tracking who has viewed or modified a document. Establish record retention policies that ensure you’re always in compliance with regulatory mandates.
Defined business processes
Enforce policies and procedures by developing defined, automated processes while notifying users of required actions and tracking related activity.
Disaster recovery
Most businesses are unable to recover from destroyed documents during a disaster. Protect your data against theft, fire, floods, hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes, global pandemics, and any other related disaster with access to your critical information no matter what the situation to continue business as usual.
