More than 70% of organizations plan on increasing their ECM investments in the coming year, according to the Forrester "2009 Global Enterprise Content Management Online Survey." However, for those who implemented an Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solution, 41% said they were unsatisfied with the return on their investment. The cost benefit of any ECM initiative is directly related to the adoption rate of the system throughout an organization. The more it is used and leveraged, more efficiencies are gained and a higher rate of return is realized. This presentation demonstrates how an Open Source Enterprise Content Management system can drive adoption of ECM in an enterprise much more effectively than its commercial counterparts purely based on its commitment to standards, ease of scalability and open source licensing model.

Notas do Editor
- More unstructured content than ever and it is growing. Users used to google type searching for information
- Continuity - A strong continuity plan will show you that not all content is critical. Determine the most vital docs and provide DR around them. ECM allows you to manage this and throw away docs that are not vital to business.
- Technical Support Warranty and Indemnification Maintenance Releases, Patches and Hot Fixes Quality Assurance/Hardening Partner Ecosystem
- This is where we should talk about adoption driving ROI
- These four things foster adoption: (1) higher level of integration allow workers to leverage the ECM without incurring multiple steps in their daily work, (2) ease of scalability allows the system to scale to meet the higher usage rate, (3) standard enterprise technologies enable a larger talent pool for maintaining and supporting the system and (4) CPU based subscription over per user licensing gets the product into the hands of the real workers. ROI increases when adoption is increased: the more a system is used, the more content that is stored, the more the case that there is a 1 stop place for searching for content and the more chances that content can be re-used as is without replication and re-creation. When the entire organization leverages an ECM, the most ROI will be higher as processes will be more efficient and there will be less chance of the wrong content being shown to the wrong people.
