ACOM Goes Modular with EZContentManager

ACOM Solutions has announced that its browser-based EZContentManager document management system is now available as a set of modules, allowing small/medium businesses to convert to a paper-free, centralized electronic document management environment quickly and affordably.

The company also recently released other upgrades to EZContentManager, featuring enhancements that streamline the user experience and provide faster task execution.

ACOM, headquartered in Long Beach, Calif., is now in its 25th year of business -- quite a long haul in the document management field. Its products are popular in certain segments, because EZContentManager is a web-based document management solution that accepts any document or file from any source, whether internally or externally generated, and stores them in one central repository, eliminating silos of information.

EZContent Manager works with ACOM's EZeDocs document management solution and EZPayManager payment management to create a seamless, end-to-end corporate document and content management environment.

Regarding the new modules, Mark Firmin, senior vice president of marketing and product management, said that "because of size and operational considerations, some companies might view the extensive capabilities of the full version of EZContentManager as beyond their immediate requirements. The modular version, EZContentManager 3.4.1, allows them to buy what they need, as they need it, tailoring their systems to their immediate requirements."

The basic engine of the modular version of is a two-concurrent-user license that satisfies all conventional document management needs, including desktop storage, retrieval, distribution by integrated email and fax, retention controls, and multi-level secure access to stored documents. An unlimited number of additional users can be added.

Other options, which are also available within the full version of the system, include:

  • process manager (workflow)
  • import utility
  • Web services
  • version management
  • collaboration tools
  • multiple domain support
  • automated linking
  • "We encourage companies that can justify it financially and functionally to purchase the full system, since it is the most cost-effective way to acquire EZContentManager's full suite of capabilities," Firmin said. "Nevertheless, those who do not have need for some of the more sophisticated features may find that their economies lie with the module-by-module approach."

    ACOM also announced many other enhancements to the full version of its document management system, including:

  • Auto linking feature -- automatically applies virtual links to batch documents being imported via certain criteria such as metadata
  • Enhanced import utility -- includes the ability to copy jobs, resize windows; establishes a more user friendly path structure
  • Wildcard searches are now available in all fields
  • Automated retention policy, including a "move" function that eliminates the need to copy and paste
  • Preview document option in the Process Manager screen, eliminating need to download documents to view them
  • Web-based scanning utility for simple scan; requires manual input of metadata, but provides quick execution of one/two-item scans
  • ACOM pricing and implementation details can be had by calling 800-699-5758 or emailing sales@acom.com.
