What Can You Do With Enterprise Content Management (ECM)?
Big data is constantly increasing at a rapid rate. Data is growing so quickly that businesses are struggling to manage their critical information, documents, and records. AIIM recently reported that 62% of organizations cannot find the information they need using their current business processes.
What if you could collect, manage, store, and securely access information of any type, including electronic files, paper documents, images, and emails?
If you are feeling overwhelmed by information chaos, an Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system can help you more effectively control big data by managing information of any type in one secure system. With ECM you can do it all!
In today’s competitive business environment, having an effective ECM system to help manage information of all types can give your organization the competitive advantage you are looking for.
“There is simply too much at stake to rely on paper. Because of their inherent nature, paper-based quality management systems are disconnected, not transparent, not traceable, siloed, manual, and reactive.”
– MedTechIntelligence, 2018
When investing in ECM, organizations want to ensure every dollar returns significant value back to the business. With an ECM system like PaperVision Enterprise or ImageSilo your organization will:
•Simplify project and team collaboration
•Provide better security of sensitive information
•Receive a great Return on Investment (ROI)
•Manage big data effectively
•And much more…
Is your organization able to find the data you need when you need it? Read this blog article to learn the top 9 things you can accomplish with an ECM system.
1.) Digitize All Information:
Managing information digitally is much more cost-effective. ECM systems allow organizations to digitize all paper and electronic files with indexing technology, which goes beyond simple scan and save routines.
2.) Meet Any Industry Need:
ECM systems are highly customizable and provide product flexibility needed to solve complex business problems in virtually any industry. ECM also solves business problems in specific departments like Accounts Payable (AP) and Human Resources (HR).
3.) Implement in Any Environment:
An ECM system can be set up either on-premise or hosted in the cloud, depending on your preference, giving you access to information you need anytime and anywhere.
4.) Provide Better Security of Sensitive Information:
ECM systems provide layers of cyber security and data encryption that ensure your digital solution is safe and your vital business information is protected from potential security threats.
5.) Receive a Great Return on Investment (ROI):
ECM systems provide excellent value and offer benefits that reduce costs for businesses. In fact, Nucleus Research says that companies receive $8.55 for every $1.00 invested in ECM.
6.) Enable Compliance:
Many organizations are required by law to retain and dispose of records after a set period. ECM systems create records retention policies that automate compliance with state and federal regulations, eliminating costly potential fines.
7.) Simplify Project and Team Collaboration:
ECM systems use unique workflow features that allow employees to easily share information and make accurate business decisions, boosting morale across an entire organization.
8.) Manage Big Data Effectively:
Analysts from IDC predict that the world’s data volume is expected to grow 5.3x between now and 2025. ECM systems control big data by supporting document lifecycle management.
9.) Streamline Secure Access:
Once your information is stored in an ECM system, you can retrieve and trace your files with powerful search capabilities, allowing users to securely find information in seconds.
