Enterprise Content Management [ECM]

Boosting the Power of Information.

SoftExpert ECM Suite provides the technology you need to create,

capture, manage, store, preserve and deliver all the content, records and

documents related to your organizational processes.

SoftExpert ECM Suite boosts business productivity and agility by

providing better access to information and creating a foundation for

sharing, securing and reusing this content throughout the enterprise. The

solution allows companies to reduce data hardware and software costs

while integrating key information in unique ways to explore new

opportunities or quickly adapt to new business requirements.

A comprehensive ECM solution must be capable of managing the content

repositories, regardless of their type, whether physical or digital.

SoftExpert ECM Suite extends the solution beyond digital content to integrate the management of physical

records with electronic content, allowing for timely retention, disposal and protection, as well as auditing policies

associated with business records.

SoftExpert ECM Suite stores all content types in a unified enterprise repository that speeds up access to vital

business information. As content enters this repository, powerful content services improve information indexing

and automate content classification, complying with the enterprise taxonomy.

Once business information can be managed centrally, you can control its lifecycle based on internal policies and

external regulations. Retention policies can be applied to the stored content automatically as they are inserted

into the system, or interactively by users at any time.
