OpenText has announced a new set of services that leverage the company’s recently acquired EasyLink cloud infrastructure to facilitate secure information exchange in the OpenText Cloud.

OpenText is combining the power of OpenText RightFax, OpenText OCR, OpenText Alchemy and OpenText MBPM with the OpenText Cloud on a single platform, enabling users to send, receive, route and archive high volumes of rich documents securely. 

An organisations can choose to outsource all or a portion of its document-related capture, process routing and telephony needs.

“Our new cloud offerings represent the first of many secure, cloud-based information exchange capabilities that OpenText will bring to market in the coming months,” commented Mark J Barrenechea, President and CEO of OpenText. 

“In the 90 days since we acquired EasyLink, we've already leveraged the EasyLink technology and infrastructure and extended OpenText’s reach in the cloud. Our current and future cloud offerings will provide customers with a wide range of capabilities and options for ensuring secure information exchange within and across their organisational boundaries..”

OpenText RightFax Connect is a hybrid fax solution that sends and receives faxes through the OpenText Cloud platform. RightFax Connect minimises fax telephony complexity by eliminating telephone lines, fax boards, gateways and complex PBX integrations, reducing telephony charges. RightFax Connect extends RightFax delivery by ensuring secure data transfer to and from the cloud.

OpenText EasyLink Fax Archive leverages OpenText’s Alchemy document server, a purpose-built fax and document archive solution, to archive faxes and other documents.

It allows for document tracking from capture to destruction, to enable rapid response to audit and discovery requests, and streamlines and automates transactional document processing. 

Integration with OpenText MBPM can automate business processes in the cloud. For example, an inbound credit application received by fax may be routed for further processing based on information contained in the credit application that was captured by OpenText Capture Center and determined to require a specific routing and approval process based on predetermined business rules.
