The Documentum Enterprise Document Management System (EDMS) is a family of open, client/server software products for managing the creation, modification, and reuse of business-critical documents-and the collaborative efforts involved. The Documentum EDMS accelerates processes for gathering, creating, and dynamically assembling knowledge into a document, distributing documents to all appropriate users, and managing the workflows throughout an organization.
The Documentum EDMS is an object-oriented system, which enables it to store documents and document components as reusable Docobjects(TM). Customers can use the software to build Virtual Documents-unique combinations of Docobjects that can be retrieved from any source and assembled on demand according to a company's own business rules.
Documentum's customers are reaping powerful business benefits from the Documentum EDMS. Users can access all the information they need using their existing platforms and applications-without having to know where the information exists, how and when it was created, or its type and format. With Documentum, companies can reuse documents and components of documents to eliminate duplication of effort and reinforce the accuracy and integrity of the information.
Documentum's built-in workflow links business-critical information with the processes involved in its capture, creation, and reuse. As a result, companies can manage their information in the context of their best business practices, accelerating time to market and improving the productivity of their professional workers. The Documentum EDMS can be easily tailored by both users and application developers, enabling companies to develop and deploy scaleable document management applications based upon their unique business processes. These applications can be designed to meet the needs of individual departments, or they can be scaled to the entire enterprise-from hundreds to thousands of users.
Documentum Professional Services offers a variety of service options in training, consulting, and technical support.
