Records Studio’s ECM tools and technologies can be viewed like the different types of tools you might have stored in your garage or tool shed at home. In your garage, you may have auto repair and maintenance items like a ratchet set and windshield wiper fluid, garden tools such as a rake and shovel, home repair items such as drills, hammers and wrenches. You might even occasionally store painting supplies knowing that you will have to dispose of these items (in an environment-friendly way) when the job is done.

You wouldn’t conceive of dragging out all of this stuff to do one job. Yet it is all in one area of your house and handy when you need it. That may be how you need to approach your ECM implementations if you are moving from application to application – Picking out the right tool or toolsets for the job when they are required.

However, unlike the garage, ECM toolsets need to work seamlessly together in order to get the most business benefit from them. Captured information must be moved seamlessly using workflow technology to provide consistent processing within an accounting environment. Re-keying information into a system just so you can move the information from one worker to another makes no sense.

ECM tools or components need to seamlessly work together whenever and wherever they are called upon. Not having that capability forces companies to work with information “silos” – when one system does not link with, or access, information contained in another. But, even though organizations may want to implement business applications one department at a time, in general, there is a compelling need to have all information linked and universally available.

Now, you can accomplish this goal. Records Studio allows you to grow intelligently – one department and/or software module at a time – on a fully integrated enterprise-ready platform.
