Stop the Software Madness - 12 Reasons for Cloud Content Management
The cloud enterprise content management (ECM) offers tremendous advantages over traditional on-premise content management software implementations. Solving a typical content management business problem requires the integration of multiple technologies like document management, workflow, scanning, capture, email management, etc.
For many organizations this involves a lengthy impelmentation process--from initial business specifications to hardware and technology planning to cross-departmental functional groups to actual software installation and customization. It may be many months from the initial business need for a content management solution to the actual workable solution.
A cloud ECM solution, however, comes as a preloaded and immediately usable business solution. A cloud enterprise content management platform combines and preintegrates more than 22 disparate ECM technologies in one platform that is accessible via an internet connection. There is no need to add additional modules or pay for expensive and timeconsuming integration services. A business unit can be up and running in days with an enterprise-clase content management and workflow solution, while the on-premise ECM software implementation project reamins stuck in its planning phase.
In content management, these advantages play an even larger role in project success. This is why analyst firms like Gartner and Forrester predict cloud providers to grow much faster than on-premise ECM software vendors in the coming years. To help you make the right choice, consider 12 important reasons why you should consider a cloud enterprise content management (ECM) platform for your next content-centric document management or workflow application.
