Gilbane Webinars: October 2007 Archives

Solutions for document-intensive business processes have traditionally been among the workhorse applications for enterprise content management--complex workflow requirements, high-volume throughput, lots of documents processed on a daily basis. Buyers with light-duty but high-value applications have been underserved by the suppliers of document management technology. Enter SharePoint. Has Microsoft stepped up with a solution that will do the job for a new class of buyers and an expanded range of applications?

Bill Trippe discusses SharePoint and platform strategies for enterprise document management with Bob Bueltmann, co-founder of KnowledgeLake. How does SharePoint change the solutions landscape? How does it stack up in terms of core capabilities like security and metadata support? How do you recognize a good fit for SharePoint?

What happens when you combine the social computing principles behind Enterprise 2.0 and enterprise search technology?

Knowledge delivered to the individual becomes knowledge for driving collaboration among individuals who work together. Effectively addressing the first problem--finding the right information at the right time--brings signficant value to an organization. Addressing the second opportunity--sharing the right information at the right time--can bring exponential value to a business.

Lynda Moulton, Gilbane's lead analyst for enterprise search, and Jerome Pesenti, chief scientist at Vivisimo, discuss advancements in search technology and what they mean to users and overall business value.

Tues, Oct 16, 2:00 pm ET. Registration is open. Attendees will receive an advance copy of the new Gilbane Group white paper, Using Search to Drive Innovation Through Better Collaboration, scheduled for publication in November.
