Two thirds of global companies with annual sales of $1 billion or more are failing to become social enterprises, according to CapGemini Consulting global study released earlier this month. And while businesses are feeling the stinging sense of urgency they must adopt a true social business model if they are to remain relevant, sustainable and profitable, most simply don’t know how to go about it.

Sharepoint and Office 365 | Social Media
When SharePoint 2010 arrived in the marketplace, the platform included new social capabilities to improve productivity and collaboration. However, as the consumer social web exploded, it became clear that the 2010 platform only provided the basic building blocks of social computing. As many organizations are now making social collaboration a priority, it’s important to dispel myths and provide a reality-based understanding of SharePoint 2010 as a social computing platform.

Enterprise 2.0 | Enterprise Content Management (ECM) | Social Media
I recently blogged on the theme The Cool is Back in ECM, reflecting on my attendance at two widely varying industry events, the Box.Net BoxWorks conference, and IBM's Information on Demand. My conclusion, based on my data point of whether my kids had heard of the entertainment (ECM passed the test this year!), is that the Cool is Back in ECM.

Enterprise Content Management (ECM) | Social Media
What has happened to the old stodgy content management space? One way that I think you can measure the coolness of an industry is to look at who is doing the entertainment at industry functions (I know, frivolous, but stick with me).

Capture and Imaging | Document Management | Enterprise Content Management (ECM) | Intelligent Information Management (IIM)
One of the things I talk about during my presentations is that while capture is a mature technology (i.e., it actually works as advertised), the capture market is still relatively immature. Specifically, while a relatively high percentage of user organizations are scanning to archive, relatively few are extracting data from images to doing indexing or metadata, even fewer are extracting data to drive processes, and still fewer have a true enterprise capture strategy.

Myth #1: Desktop scanning works well enough for digitizing my paper documents Reality: Digitizing your paper is really just a small piece to the solution and does provide some value, but the scope of your business problem will determine whether or not a simple desktop capture solution is going to do the job. For small organizations or businesses that are looking to do a simple back-file document conversion project, a basic capture system might satisfy their requirements. But for mid- and large-sized organizations, the requirements are often more complex and require advanced document automation, distributed capture, and connectivity with a host of business systems.
