Content Management 

Enterprise Content Management (ECM) is the strategies, methods, and tools used to capture, manage, store, preserve, and deliver content and documents related to organizational processes.  The types of content and documents managed by an ECM include images, text documents, web pages, spreadsheets, presentations, graphics, drawings, e-mail, video, and multimedia.  ECM tools and strategies allow the management of an organization's structured and unstructured information, wherever that information exists.

Within the current digital age, an ECM solution that has the best chance of being successful usually is scalable, easy-to-use, integrated, and interoperable with other applications.

Keys to successful ECM solution include:

  • Maximize user acceptance
  • Minimize the burden of IT
  • Meet diverse organizational needs
