7 Trends That Are Changing the Content Management Landscape

Enterprise Content Management (ECM)

It’s the best of times for those in the content biz -- content has never been more important in creating and delivering value to customers.  And it is also the worst of times – ECM is increasingly viewed as a dated and artificially narrow term, creating an untethered feel to the content “industry” right now.

It strikes me that all of this change is driven by the following underlying trends:

  1. We’ve awakened from the dream of a single repository.
  2. It’s now all about the end user.
  3. Compliance risks and challenges are increasing and growing more complex.
  4. There is a growing recognition that the cloud represents the future of content management.
  5. The action in content management has shifted from storing content to extracting value and insight from content.
  6. Content creation has been balkanized and democratized.
  7. Apps have changed how we view, deploy, and consume enterprise solutions.
