Doctors are always looking for an intelligent way with the burdensome administrative process and to focus on the health of their patients. You want to keep track on the medical history of their patients, not juggling documents. document management software provides this service to collect, store and assimilate to financial and other scanned documents are instantly and easily accessible by simple click.
document management software has some specialties. It is designed in a user mode and allows a person to arrange graphic according to their practices. The user can simply create folders and store documents with names, then he can find. The software is also considered for the efficient and proper functioning. The burden of proof to the fax storage and stacks of bills to reduce considerably, because the trial made by automation and other applications, including EMR.
The document management software is now strongly preferred by the pros. It reduces stress and keeps a good track of important data that can be viewed later without any problem. Doctors consider the software as one of the fastest document management solutions in the health care profession. The software allows users to draw online and offline by storing the maps on a local server that makes it safer to believe it can be seen both offline and online. The image storage reduces the risk of data loss. The software also provides the condition to find a simple and fast.

Document Management Roll-up: Google Adds Docs Functionality, Oracle Updates BPM Suite 11g
This week, with the general release of Office 2010, Google challenges with updates to Docs, and gets some added support from other companies like OpenDrop. On the BPM front, Oracle followed its ECM Suite 11g release with an upgraded BPM 11g.
Google Adds Docs Functionality
Who would ever have thought it! The day before Microsoft (news, site) puts Office 2010 out on general release, Google adds new functionality to Google Docs.
According to the Google Docs official blog their new documents and spreadsheets editors have been released making both easier to use and manipulate, as well as adding some more sauce to draw users away from Office 2010 and its online version, Web Apps.
As of this week, all new documents will be created using the new documents editor. According to the blog, the new editor was built for faster real-time collaboration, better imports and more control over document’s layout.
Since the preview, they have also added new features including a table of contents, a special characters dialog, a dictionary, search as-you-type and re-sizable images.
A new version of spreadsheets is also available as the default to everyone starting this week too. New features here include formula highlighting, sheet dragging, sheet menu, faster scrolling, an editable formula bar, autocomplete in cells, copy sheet from one spreadsheet to another and range sorting.
These new editors will become the default editors for Google Apps users too. Google will begin activating the new editor for documents on June 21 and for spreadsheets on June 30.
Office 2010 Finally Available For All
And because you can’t have Google Docs without Microsoft Office a short word to say Office 2010 is finally on general release as of later today so that all those that haven’t been able to access it in work will finally be able to see what all the fuss is about.
There has been a lot of talk about Office 2010 here over the past few months so the features are probably familiar to most.
And the recommended pricing has also been released. Office Home and Student 2010, the most basic bundle of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote, will cost US $150 and can be installed on as many as three computers.
A US $280 version includes the Outlook e-mail program while a US $500 bundle adds Publisher and Access. Along with the Office 2010 suite, users can now purchase Visio 2010 and Project 2010 both in stores and at the official Microsoft store online.
Computers will now be shipped pre-loaded with Office 2010 within the next 12 months. These pre-loaded Office 2010 suites can be activated by purchasing a product key card at a retail outlet or online.
OfficeDrop Puts Pressure On Microsoft
However, competition for Microsoft and Office 2010 is going to be stiff as other companies start getting in on the Google Docs act.
This week, for example, online document management company OfficeDrop has just launched a new product feature that will allow customers to automatically get their paper scanned and into Google Docs as text-searchable PDFs.
Using the new service, users can send paper documents to OfficeDrop in pre-paid envelopes and boxes. OfficeDrop then scans and uploads the files to a secure online document management portal that is both a search engine and organizational tool for paper and digital files.
When OfficeDrop folders or files are linked to Google Docs, the documents are automatically uploaded to Google Docs as text searchable PDFs.
This is a powerful collaboration tool for offices that struggle with the location and exchange of information, especially since the OfficeDrop system makes everything searchable by adding OCR (optical character recognition) to any document uploaded to the OfficeDrop document management system.
Currently, Google Docs does not provide OCR for non-text rich files, but OfficeDrop makes files text searchable, so any documents sent to Google Docs from OfficeDrop can then be searched effectively.
If you want to sign up for OfficeDrop you can do so through the Google Apps Marketplace or on OfficeDrop's website.
SAP Extends Open Text Agreement
An extended agreement between Open Text (news, site) and SAP (news, site) means that SAP is to start selling Open Text’s information management solution that includes file managements capabilities for personnel records and effectively streamlines their human resources operations.
This is not the first time the two have gotten together. SAP already sells Open Text solutions for document management including access and archiving as well as digital asset management.
This latest agreement will see Open Text’s solution for human resources management sold as SAP Employee File Management application by Open Text and will enable companies to create and complete digital records of all personnel-related documents natively integrated with the SAP ERP Human Capital Management platform.
The result is that all paper and electronic documents can be pulled from digital files relating to employees cutting the amount of time needed to administer human resources related tasks.
Oracle BPM Upgrade Follows Suite Upgrade
Last week Oracle (news, site) announced a major upgrade to its enterprise content management suite. This week it has announced it is upgrading its Business Process Management suite.
As a part of Oracle’s Fusion Middleware 11g, the new BPM Suite 11g is said to support all kinds of processes with a new process foundation, user-centric design, as well as new social BPM abilities.
Oracle Business Process Management Suite 11g includes a native implementation of BPMN 2.0 with new components including:
•Oracle UCM for document-centric processes
•Unified management and monitoring of business processes
•Role-based modeling and design using BPM studio
•Process Composer: for web-based process modeling and deployment.
•Business visibility, process status and operational reporting through business reporting
The new social abilities also enable enhanced collaboration by including wikis and blogs as well as customized team spaces through all phases of the business lifecycle.

The Rise of "Intelligent" Enterprise Content Management
Despite the pessimism from some corners, the impending death of Enterprise Content Management is overstated. Rather, from what I see, the intelligent content race is on.
The Commoditization of Content Management
One of the things that you hear quite a bit in the Content Management circles these days is how the management and storage of content is becoming a commodity. With the rapid spread of SharePoint and the emergence of cloud-based document sharing services like Box.net, Google Docs and Dropbox, it is a trend that is becoming hard to ignore.
While the basic storage and sharing of content slowly becomes a commodity out in the mystical cloud and in the depths of SharePoint sites, the vendors have been leaning on the advanced features that they offer in their platforms today. The challenge is that the "commodity" systems can easily see those needs and add them to their platforms. As this occurs, the reach of the commodity factor extends.
Why We Need Intelligent Content Management
At the recent EMC World in Boston, Alexandra Larsson of the Swedish Armed Forces discussed how their system uses TIBCO’s Spotfire to stream actions occurring within the Documentum repository live to a screen. The tool is used to spot trends among users, allowing HQ staff to respond to situations more quickly and efficiently. This example generated quite a lot of buzz from attendees and those remote participants tracking the show via Twitter and the blogosphere.
In most organizations, content never stands alone. It may be part of a transaction, an employee record, a website, a creative project, a medical case, or any number of things. The ability to bring the content and all of the information (context) that went into the creation and use of that content is becoming more critical as organizations realize that simple access to content is simply not enough.
Governments want to know who might have ever looked at, or searched for, one particular file out of millions. Web managers need to know which pieces of content are driving traffic. Customer service reps need all relevant content and data for every client available and readily digested. The need to know how content is used extends across all industries.
Thus enters Intelligent Content Management.
Three Forms of Enterprise CMS Intelligence
The concept of Intelligent Content Management is the idea of deriving more value from existing Content Management systems. There are a few ways that the vendors are looking to deliver that value to their customers.
1. Content Analytics
The first part of the story is Content Analytics. The proposition behind Content Analytics is to mine the content already resident in the repository and identify trends and exceptions.
The search engines that are being embedded are offering improved algorithms and allowing the display of results in ways that go beyond the simple list. Faceted search capabilities are allowing users to look at their results from different angles, providing instant filtering on several dimensions of your content.
2. Business Intelligence Tools
The second effort at enhancing the value of existing information is focused on the application of Business Intelligence tools to better visualize what is happening at any given moment. This goes beyond just placing all of the metadata into a data warehouse for analysis — it involves constant monitoring of key components within the repositories themselves. The value, potential, and interest for this capability was evident in the response to the Swedish Military system.
This is likely, and hopefully, part of the logic behind the new partnership between EMC and Informatica. While it appears on the surface to be a resale agreement, you get the sense talking to the EMC people that they want to build solutions using tools from Informatica that will allow users to access more precise information from their repositories, not just the hoards of data that they can get today.
As always, the devil/implementation is in the details. IBM and Oracle already own BI tools, so they can also have the potential to provide a one-stop-shop for this functionality.
The blending of all that metadata, audit logs, and Content Analytics should offer people a new way of looking at their content. Context is the key here, and this is just the beginning.
3. Content Management Interoperability (CMIS)
Most content is not just content. Starting with documents which contain “unstructured” information, you then add metadata and presentation, creating content. When you provide that content in context, it becomes information.
This is where integration and federation comes into play. With CMIS, the ability to pull content into other applications is much easier, but the information also needs to flow in reverse. The most successful systems that I have seen have information from all systems come into a single, purpose-built dashboard.
The ability to talk to other systems is going to become more important to the Content Management vendors. Historically, they have worked hard to integrate with systems, but integration only works within an organization. The necessary context for content is becoming more likely to reside outside of the control of IT, where those old integration efforts fail.
Being able to interact with the same piece of content from within both SalesForce and SharePoint, while sharing it with external partners, is becoming the common scenario and not the exception.
Moving into the Future
There are a lot of things that will make this all easier, and those are hurdles that the Enterprise CMS vendors must master in order to bring their vision of Intelligent Content to fruition.
The key will be to create an approach that unifies the traditional business intelligence field with the next generation of content management systems. Once that happens, we won’t need Intelligent Content Management because we’ll have true Information Management
