Why transform now?
ECM is dead, wait what? Likely you have multiple content management systems in place. And you may be wondering what this really means. The practical answer is death is not necessarily the case. You still have enterprise content to store, manage and share. The good news is this journey is an evolution, not a revolution. A good place to start is in understanding your current situation and then exploring where and how you should evolve.
The average number of content systems in use continues to rise—growing by 30% over the past five years. Yet 54% of critical business content still remains outside these content systems.
