Alfresco Enterprise 4
We can’t go into the details yet, as they have to be kept under wraps until Thursday, but we can say that on Thursday Alfresco will be releasing what Todd Barr, CMO at Alfresco, told us is going to be a really significant release.
We’ve had a preview of Enterprise 4 and it does look extremely cool. From the Alfresco website itself, we can say that it takes document editing firmly into the mobile space as well as offering the possibility to:
- Use the productivity tools of choice with smart integrations into Alfresco
- Connect and publish content to cloud services
- Collaborate with users outside of the firewall, with Alfresco in the cloud
It also comes with improvements to indexing, administration and extensibility as well as the flexibility to scale up and out when necessary. Watch this space on Thursday.
Office 15 Beta
Another new release scheduled for this year will be the full public beta release of Office 15, due sometime in the summer.
Microsoft's Office blog has announced that version 15 of the almighty productivity suite has hit tech preview status. That means that its time to start testing it in real-world offices and enterprises to see how it gets on with live data, servers and users.
There are a batch of updates in this version, bringing collaboration, mobile and web together in one package. As the post states:
With Office 15, for the first time ever, we will simultaneously update our cloud services, servers, and mobile and PC clients for Office, Office 365, Exchange, SharePoint, Lync, Project, and Visio. Quite simply, Office 15 will help people work, collaborate, and communicate smarter and faster than ever before."
Colligo Gets Legal
Email and document management vendor Colligo has announced the release of the Colligo Legal Pack, a SharePoint-based bundle designed for law firms and legal departments deploying SharePoint as a client/matter-centric legal document management system (DMS).
The Legal Pack builds on Colligo’s SharePoint apps and administration tools, adding legal-specific features, integrations, and SharePoint configurations.
The Colligo Legal Pack includes Colligo Email Manager for email management using Outlook and SharePoint, College File Manager that offers document management for SharePoint using Windows Explorer and College Briefcase, a SharePoint app for Apple iPod with upgraded security features.
M-Files Is Mobile
M-Files has also been busy in the mobile space and recently announced support for the Windows Phone 7.5, also known as "Mango."
Windows Phone 7.5 users can use M-Files Mobile Access to retrieve documents stored in centralized repositories, whether cloud-based or via on-premise servers behind company firewalls.
In addition to supporting Windows Phone 7.5, M-Files Mobile Access is also available on the iPhone and iPad, Android, BlackBerry, and Symbian S60.
M-Files eliminates the need for chaotic Windows folders by organizing documents using simple tags and keywords. With M-Files, users store documents in a centralized vault, the same as they would on any other hard drive on their system or network, but rather than repeatedly searching for the right folder, users save documents to the vault and tag.
