Organizations can solve some of their biggest challenges caused by the
deluge of electronic information being created, consumed and stored
WATERLOO, ON, March 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - OpenText™ (NASDAQ: OTEX, TSX: OTC),
the global leader in Enterprise Information Management (EIM), today announced the availability of OpenText InfoFusion, a powerful Information Access Platform that reinvents the way
organizations discover, analyze and act on unstructured information
across the enterprise.
Almost every large organization has information locked in aging and
uncontrolled systems. These information silos reduce productivity,
cause problems for IT and, due to their lack of retention control and
discoverability, represent significant risk when investigations require
eDiscovery. OpenText InfoFusion provides immediate, unified access to
critical content sources, improving end-user productivity and
satisfaction. At the same time, InfoFusion can migrate content from
non-strategic Enterprise Content Management (ECM) systems to reduce
support costs and manage the lifecycle of content.
"While there has been a lot of attention given to the potential value
locked in unstructured content, most organizations are actually just
trying to come to grips with the volume and the velocity of growth of
unstructured information," said OpenText CEO Mark J. Barrenechea. "IT
is struggling to protect the organization from risks associated with
data loss, investigations and eDiscovery, as well as productivity
impediments such as duplication, lost information and basic access.
OpenText InfoFusion unifies information for improved governance and a
smarter enterprise. With this modular, standards-based platform,
OpenText is making good on its promise to deliver an integrated
Enterprise Information Architecture."
Organizations are using OpenText InfoFusion to accelerate their move to OpenText ECM for day-forward Information Governance and retention control. InfoFusion allows organizations to address
legacy systems and to migrate legacy content into the only ECM system
with tightly integrated Archiving and Records Management.
OpenText InfoFusion is an integral part of many organizations' adoption
strategies for OpenText Content Server. OpenText InfoFusion can be used
to migrate and centralize content, put it under life-cycle control,
increase efficiency, and to create a single source of the truth. Most
organizations also realize significant cost-savings by de-commissioning
old systems, reducing support and infrastructure costs, while
increasing IT agility.
InfoFusion includes migration, aggregation and integration capabilities
to enable organizations to:
-
Reduce IT complexity and support costs while maximizing storage savings
as they consolidate disparate content management and archive systems
-
Minimize litigation risk as well as storage and eDiscovery costs by
moving content to a retention controlled repository
-
Decommission legacy systems that are being maintained solely due to the
requirement to maintain access to the content they contain for
regulatory or reference purposes
-
Rapidly develop applications that extract value from unstructured
content and aging systems while improving end-user experience and
productivity. (Coming Soon)
