Enterprise File Sync and Share (EFSS)
Are your employees using file sharing tools that you don’t want them to use? If so, you are not alone. In fact, 65 percent of organizations surveyed reported that they are aware that their employees are using unsanctioned file sharing tools, according to a new AIIM research report. And the fact that the other 35 percent said they are “not aware” of employees using unsanctioned tools is not necessarily reassuring, as this is not an indication that it’s not happening.

Business Process Management (BPM) | Manufacturing
I've been doing some research on content management, and its utilization in manufacturing, mass-production companies (like food and pharma), plants, and refineries, and will be going through this research in a series of posts over the next few weeks. Around the globe, these companies are clearly approaching a crossroads. Per Guy Bieber, director of strategy and architecture at Citrix, looming ahead for manufacturers is a revolutionary moment, driven by 3-D printing and the Internet of Things: “The breakthrough moment will come when one customized part costs the same per unit to produce as a million of the same part.”

Accounting and Finance | Automation
This is the second of three posts on the theme -- CFOs and Finance Directors: Neglected Players in the Drive for Digital Transformation. The first post was here. The core point of the three posts is the financial process automation creates a value stream in two directions. It is a proven source of cost reduction for companies looking for marginal but sustaining competitive advantage, something that Finance Directors can use to "manage up" in their organizations in making a case for resources to drive financial process automation, which is the focus of this post. Financial process automation also creates the foundation for sound analytics and business intelligence, a priority of great concern to the C-Suite, which will be the focus of the third post.

I find the auto-complete functionality in Google fascinating. What I am referring to is when you type in a few words, and the Google algorithm predicts what you might be interested in based on your own behaviors and that of the universe at large. It’s actually more fun if you log out of your own Google account first to get a less biased result so that you can get a true sense of what is on the mind of your fellow citizens.

AIIM Community | Document Management | Enterprise Content Management (ECM)
Well, the other shoe called Documentum dropped (haha - wrote this lead before finding Cheryl's post below) that everyone was expecting once Dell and EMC got together. And in somewhat record speed. AIIM does not take positions on things like acquisitions, but obviously, the extended AIIM community is buzzing about this. I thought I would find as many articles as I could and put them in one place and let folks form their own opinions. If I've missed any, just put this link in the comments section, and I'll add the link to the original article.
