"We can simply do a search on it and get the information we need, saving a lot of time. Open Text Document Management (formerly Livelink) has really become a common word at Genzyme—as common as Outlook or Word."
Mark Wescott, Senior IT Manager, ECM at Genzyme
Managing information is critical to the success and security of your business. The need to effectively manage business documents reaches across your organization. Business documents, whether they originate in electronic or paper form, define your business and the way that it operates.
Knowing where documents are, controlling access to them, finding them quickly, linking them to business processes, and archiving or destroying them at the right time in their lifecycle are fundamental requirements. The Document Management component of the Open Text Enterprise Content Management (ECM) Suite meets these requirements for managing business documents in any electronic format.
Effective management of business documents lies at the heart of an effective enterprise-wide ECM strategy, enabling you to:
Improve personal productivity by making it easier to find information
Get more value from existing information assets by connecting them with business processes
Improve decision making by putting corprate history at the fingertips of today's decision makers
Reduce risk through the effective governance of vital corporate information
