ECM access from Microsoft Phone 7
enprovia has unveiled a Microsoft Phone 7 client app, giving users direct access to their processes and documents while being mobile. The application enables users to search and navigate through data located on their Enterprise Content Management Systems (ECM) or Document Management Systems (DMS).
The users can further add comments, annotations, voice recordings and images to existing documents, create new documents while e.g. in meetings, share documents with others and subscribe to changes and be alerted when modifications are done to folders or documents in real-time.
This app targets those Phone 7 users who need to keep their workflow efficient and make decisions even when out-of-office, needing frequent or permanent access to their enterprise documents and processes. It is available both through Microsoft's app hub as well as directly from enprovia.
The app provides access to Microsoft Sharepoint content as well as to content stored in basically any ECM and DMS systems on the market, including those supporting the ECM industry standard CMIS or providing WebDAV APIs. It uses the enprovia Mobile Enabler infrastructure to rapidly integrate in medium and large-scale enterprise installations.
"We see a huge potential for Microsoft Phone 7 deployments in the enterprises of tomorrow having leading vendors like Nokia backing it" says Bo Stahlbrandt, CEO of enprovia.
"We are convinced that mobile access to your core knowledgebase and processes will prove to be a key strategic item for more corporations over time and here Microsoft’s technology will play an important role, with increasing market share. We are putting our bets on their technology and are providing secure, mobile and fast access to enterprise core systems today. Our Mobile Enabler solution allows software vendors and system integrators to move faster, integrate enterprise solutions in mobile scenarios easier than their competitors", concludes Stahlbrandt.
