Physical information management for SharePoint and Office 365
Gimmal, a provider of information management software designed to make Microsoft SharePoint and Office 365 a true Enterprise Content Management system, has launched a new product for Physical Information Management (PIM).
PIM provides a way to manage any type of physical item, including storage boxes, file folders, documents and tape; apply policy to physical and electronic record; and enhance findability with unified search for electronic and physical record.
It leverages the SharePoint user experience for records actions, such as classification, deliver/pickup requests and more.
"RIM professionals have been waiting for a solution to consistently apply records management controls to electronic and physical information in their final lifecycle stage in SharePoint," said Dr. Susan Cisco, CRM, FAI, Gimmal.
"Employees across their organizations can access electronic and physical information using the same easy-to-use interface."
"As our customers execute on their cloud initiatives, they are looking to Gimmal to make the transition as smooth as possible," stated K. David Quackenbush, President, Gimmal. "PIM is an example of our strategy to enable deployment across all SharePoint deployments - on-premise, in Office 365, Azure and in hybrid scenarios. This gives our customers the platform flexibility and choice they require."
