Collaboration is what makes the EDMS go round and round…

So many tools are needed for a strong EDMS, but collaboration is what makes the system tick.

Here is an excerpt from Wikipedia on Collaboration:

“Collaboration should be inherent in an EDMS. Documents should be capable of being retrieved by an authorized user and worked on. Access should be blocked to other users while work is being performed on the document”.

If you don’t have a strong easy-to-use and administrator collaborative interface, you will never receive the full ROI potential. Document collaboration is where the average user sees the value of the EDMS and is more likely to embrace new technology because they (the users) become more efficient. Users are allowed to invite others to a specific document for real-time review and versioning or deposit the document into a file and allow the EDMS to notify all users of the change to the deposited document.

Tomorrow….Version Control.

GET OUT AND VOTE!!! :)
