Content Management: Alfresco Sets a New Standard for ECM
Alfresco is releasing Alfresco Enterprise Edition 3.0 today. As a Gold System Integration Partner, Formtek is very excited about the many changes in this new release. It’s a major leap forward in functionality and and the software now offers capabilities not found in the ECM software of commercial competitors.
“In the current economic climate organizations are seeking to do more with less. Alfresco’s mission is to offer a low cost, open source, subscription model with minimal upfront investment which ensures dramatically lower TCO than comparable proprietary solutions,” said John Newton, CTO and Chairman, Alfresco Software. “Alfresco Enterprise Edition 3.0 delivers an alternative from proprietary software lock-in and escalating implementation, freedom from per user license pricing and maintenance fees.”
New Alfresco 3.0 functionality includes:
- Document Library: New features include thumbnails, the ability to preview a document using a Flash Viewer, commenting and tagging
- Search: Search for people and experts in addition to content
- Virtual Teams: Create virtual teams for projects and communities. Teams can include both internal and external people
- Activity Feeds: Keep track of what is new or changing in content and people
