ABSTRACT:

Document management, either as a stand-alone technology or as part of a broader ECM initiative, enables an organization to effectively and efficiently control and leverage its content. While an on-demand approach may not be the best fit for all projects, it is usually the right choice if your situation incorporates the following characteristics:

  • Broad use across many uncontrolled IT environments such as third-party sites and multiple companies
  • Need for rapid deployment -- no time for long purchase cycles and implementation
  • Lack of a large up-front budget or the time to get one approved
  • Need for rapid change and evolution over time but within an envelope of common functionality
  • Desire for new features that are useful to others with similar problems
  • Deployed easily without specialized support
  • Lack of dedicated IT support

While SaaS document management solutions boast significant advantages over deployed models, the best way to determine fit is to evaluate your options through a free trial.
