It encompasses not only electronic documents, but electronic files of all types, as well as paper documents converted to digital files. Often-times replacing shared-file servers or filing cabinets, Document Management software is the platform on which version control, check-in and check-out, reviews and approvals, search and retrieval, profiling, indexing, and many other file management capabilities are supported. Beyond these capabilities, many companies look for a more comprehensive “Enterprise Document Management” solution that incorporates standard document management functions along with records management, document-centric workflow, collaboration, and scanning. These are core capabilities of ECM (Enterprise Content Management), that most companies need for their business requirements. Aside from a significantly lower cost of ownership, Enterprise Document Management can offer several benefits in areas of speed of deployment, user acceptance, and integration with common user applications such as Windows Explorer, Microsoft Office, Outlook, etc. Growing concern for government and industry regulations, combined with a need to manage the rapidly expanding volume of information generated in today’s electronic work environment, has led many companies to deploy document management systems. The automation of business processes using workflow management tools included in many document management systems has also increased the demand of these tools. More recently, the expanding use of email and the need to capture such electronic communications as business records for legal concerns and regulatory compliance, has become a critical reason for deploying a document management system that incorporates email communications.
