Zia Consulting and Alfresco Kick Off Roadshow on Solving Content Chaos
Seminars to demonstrate why SharePoint and Office 365 aren’t standalone answers to content management problems
Zia Consulting, Inc., the leading provider of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) and Intelligent Document Capture solutions, has announced their latest roadshow with four events in Washington D.C., Los Angeles, Irvine, and Dallas, featuring their Adhere for Alfresco solution. Each of these complimentary lunchtime events will discuss enterprise solutions for SharePoint integration and synchronization, governance, federated search, workflow, and content security.
According to Mike Mahon, CEO of Zia Consulting, “When Microsoft launched SharePoint, it was made for simply sharing documents within departments. Now, a lot of companies are trying to use it as their primary content management solution—their system of record—even though it was never designed for this.” The purpose of Adhere for Alfresco is to optimize a company’s existing SharePoint deployment by integrating with Alfresco to make a managed and secure ECM.
A recent ECM market study by the Association for Information and Image Management (AIIM) found that 93% of respondents use SharePoint in some manner within their organization. While more than 75% still have a “strong commitment” to it, only 11% of these organizations see their deployment as a success. The leading concern is around the lack of true information governance capabilities within SharePoint making it a challenge to address compliance and security concerns. Significant issues also remain around utilizing SharePoint for workflow/business processes or case management tasks. Leaders often experience confusion around how to leverage SharePoint Online and Office 365—whether as a standalone or hybrid model—further contributing to this content chaos.
Each seminar will discuss these prevalent issues around SharePoint. They will also identify ways companies can implement solutions to ensure user adoption and maximize automation—throughout the integration with their existing SharePoint deployment.
