What is enterprise content management?
Enterprise content management (ECM) is a set of processes and technologies which manage information flows across the organization, from capture to archiving and disposition. ECM software has now evolved with a new generation of content services, changing the way organizations approach ECM.
Content services platforms now allow organizations to realize the full value of the content and data available to them, rather than isolating content in separate repositories that are difficult to access and do not provide context. Content services are a major step forward in connecting people, processes and content across organizations and with their customers, suppliers and other business partners.
