Alfresco Webinar Recordings

Alfresco and Rational Retention, a leading developer of document lifecycle management and e-discovery solutions, will demonstrate the integration of the Alfresco content repository and RR.

The solution provides customers with the ability to archive and maintain full control over a range of e-mails, documents and enterprise content which need to be captured, retained and made available for compliance and litigation purposes.

Shared Drive

View the webcast

The worlds most popular content management system is…

The Shared Drive.

It is comfortingly familiar to users.

Most workers in the corporate environment have heard of, or used, a shared drive before.

But the shared drive comes with its own challenges.

• It can be difficult to find content.
• It can be difficult to capture context – often this is squeezed into a very long file name, if at all.
• And how do you know that you’re using the right version of the file?
• What is someone else has modified the file, but not loaded it back to the shared dirve?

The challenges go beyond that – how do you control who has what rights to each document?

And how do you facilitate on-line, asynchronous collaboration on each document?

It can be cumbersome, if not impossible in some instances.

Alfresco not only takes on the significant strengths of the Shared Drive, but also complements its shortcomings.

Alfresco’s Virtual File System interfaces provide:

• CIFS (Common Internet File System),
• NFS (Network File System),
• WebDav (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning) and
• FTP (File Transfer Protocol) access

to your Alfresco content repositories making, Alfresco as easy to use as a shared drive.

This recorded webinar covers:

• Alfresco’s Virtual File System
• Shared Drive Replacement
• Offline Synchronisation
• Automatic Versioning and Security

Learn how you can replace your shared drive with a enterprise-class content management system.

With no client software.
