Sharepoint ECM
ECM (Enterprise content management ) - is a set of technologies used to capture, store, preserve and deliver content and documents and content related to organizational processes. ECM tools allow the management of an organization's unstructured information, wherever that information exists.
ECM employed the technologies and strategies of content management to address business process issues, such as records and auditing, knowledge sharing, personalization and standardization of content, and so on.
Migrating existing content into a SharePoint system, and
specifically into a SharePoint Page Library — the foundation of a
SharePoint Publishing website — is neither simple nor straightforward.To
migrate content into SharePoint we took a look at a number of tools,
both commercial tools and custom-built ones paired with a data
aggregation framework. Here is a review of our experience, a summary of
our final approach and some postmortem thoughts.
Being that Clearview Enterprise Content Management is, as they say,
the first SharePoint-based solution, we think they rock pretty hard.
Well, in the world of Microsoft at least.
And now, not even six months since we last reported an upgrade to Clearview ECM, they’ve
gone and released version 5.0 (more rockage). The release offers lots
of exciting changes and new features, including a new Business Process
Management module and compatibility with Kofax 8.0
Clearview Software - the leading provider of Enterprise Content
Management (ECM) solutions that complement and extend Microsoft
technologies including SharePoint—proudly announces the release of
Clearview ECM 5.0, bringing to market their new Business Process
Management module as well as intelligent indexing and index validation,
external data access, compatibility with Kofax 8.0, and more. The fully-integrated Business Process Management module
(workflow) reduces implementation costs while automating
content-centric processes to improve user productivity, information
sharing, and collaboration of documents in Clearview and SharePoint.
Information workers can manage and monitor workflow activity from the
intuitive Clearview Client, which was inspired by the Fluent User
Interface in Microsoft Office 2007.
The amount of content an organization must manage is growing at an incredible rate. The cost associated with managing content increases as the amount of content increases and regulatory compliance standards tighten. Submitted by KnowledgeLake

In its annual Expo now underway in New York City, AIIM (the "Enterprise Content Management Association") has once again laid out a surprisingly sumptuous banquet of exhibitors (500+) and conference tracks (5+) for visitors. But there are 2 ghosts haunting the halls of the Jacob Javits Center. The first one is Metadata: it props up every meaningful ECM solution, but vendors and architects rarely want to talk about it, perhaps because applying metadata at an enterprise level is so incredibly hard. The second ghost wafting uneasily among the expo aisles and corridors is Miscrosoft SharePoint, an almost viral doc management and portal solution for which the rest of the ECM organism has had only scant immunological response to date. Every ECM vendor has to ask: should we co-exist with SharePoint, or try to fight it?... Learn more about Metadata through AIfIARead about MS SharePoint
This article examines the rapidly changing requirements of content users within enterprises, the content as a service paradigm and the differences between proprietary and open source Enterprise Content Management (ECM) products, and why an organization might choose one over the other.

SharePoint, conventional ECM software provides a back-end solution. Users are able to work in their familiar applications, and ECM works behind the scenes to provide storage, retrieval, automation, and connection to information that is housed within legacy applications. ECM offers a variety of ways to optimize business processes, and is surprisingly affordable even to smaller organizations. Unlike SharePoint, ECM provides significant benefits to organizations whose processes are still dependentâto some extentâon paper. Submitted by Optical Image Technology
I am surprised by just how loudly Microsoft's announcements have reverberated within the ECM vendor community. But perhaps what's been most striking is the number of customers that are inquiring and taking serious interest in understanding SharePoint and its ECM capabilities. Submitted by Clearview Software
We are seeing more and more consolidation in the ECM space; most recently,the acquisition of FileNet by IBM, prior to that EMC's acquisition of CaptivaSoftware, and now SharePoint is gaining more mind-share in both small and bigorganizations. Submitted by Visioneer
