Springcm News & Articles

Things just keep happening at SpringCM (news, site). Last week, adding weight to its already considerable SaaS stack, they announced that they were adding a further five industry-specific applications to the SpringCM platform.

And now, hot on the heels of that announcement, SpringCM has released a new solution that allows connectivity between their platform and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007.

Want more signs that SaaS is becoming a must-have solution in these troubled times? You have to look no further than SpringCM (news, site) to get them. Last October, it beefed up its SaaS-based enterprise content management system with Version 4.5 and then again, in March of this year, with Version 5.1, adding a number of new features and enhancements.

Now, to add muscle to that, SpringCM has announced five new industry-specific applications available on its platform -- three of them from entirely new partners and two more from existing partners.

They were named a Hot Company to Watch by Forrester Research; KMWorld plugged them into their Top 100 list for the third consecutive year; they’ve taken Software as a Service (SaaS) to all new heights. No doubt, SpringCM is flyin’ high.

But let’s call them back down to the ground for a second so we can review their 5.1 release. Accompanying the updated platform are new Departmental Solutions that may strike your fancy as well.

Each year KMWorld publishes the top 100 knowledge management companies "with attitude." Relying on feedback from colleagues, analysts, system integrators and the vendors themselves, the annual list spotlights organizations that demonstrate a commitment to customer-driven innovation and exceptional market agility.

Below, a shortlist of industry standouts -- and why they made it this year.

Privia, a bid and proposal lifecycle management software solution, has been refined according to SpringCM, provider of enterprise-class, on-demand content management products.  This version of Privia includes support for additional content sources and newly integrated support for Firefox and Safari browsers. This browser support enhances users ability for anytime, anywhere access to secure opportunity and proposal information. With the Fed busy printing another trillion dollars for the stimulus plan, proposal development is likely experiencing furious growth.

Continuing professional education can be one of the tools to make you more valuable and marketable in these uncertain economic times. Here’s an opportunity to learn more about SaaS Enterprise Content Management at a webinar hosted by SpringCM and Forrester Research.

Is Enterprise Content Management (ECM) an infrastructure platform or an application? What are the advantages and limitations of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) in ECM? These questions and more are to be covered at this webinar.

Day Software released three new editions of CRX, Day’s famed JSR-170-compliant Java Content Repository (JCR). These new goodies will make some developers and CIOs salivate -- especially those looking for leaner content infrastructure solutions based on Day’s commercial implementation of Apache Jackrabbit and Apache Sling.

In a nutshell, developers get free access to the CRX; and enterprises can get the CRX cheaply, on the pay-as-you-go model. Is that all? Not really. The impact on the entire Enterprise and Web Content Management industries may be a lot larger.

The title of this article says it all, doesn't it? The folks over at SpringCM are probably jumping up and down right now, since they've just been considered a very promising company by Forrester Research. 

With SaaS CMS being a popular topic nowadays, every vendor seems to have something to say about the Software-as-a-Service model. Enterprise CMS provider SpringCM is no exception.

In a recent “SaaS vs. On-Premises Software” whitepaper, SpringCM highlights 12 reasons why SaaS can be a good choice for a CMS prospect. We add our two cents to this gospel and say why SaaS ECM may not be the best option for everyone.

SpringCM Inc., a known SaaS Enterprise CMS player, has released the newest version of its SpringCM product -- v5.0. It is touted as the “first SaaS platform that allows companies to easily deploy multiple content-centric applications” across different enterprise workgroups, making it easier for value added resellers (VARs) to build repeatable and cost-effective applications for their customers.

The yummiest part of the new release is SpringCM’s integration with 22 Enterprise Content Management (ECM) technologies spanning imaging, document capture, business process automation, e-mail and records management, etc. – catering to such audiences as accounts payable, logistics, contract, proposal and records management and compliance.

SpringCM, like many other content management providers, makes a lot of promises about how their software will help businesses become more efficient. KMWorld is acknowledging that SpingCM is making good on one of those promises. Privia, SpringCM's bid and proposal lifecycle management software, is a finalist in the KMWorld Promise Awards.

Here’s a song you’re probably familiar with: What do companies need? To save money. What else do they need? To increase efficiency. How these things are usually achieved? Through collaboration. We sing it here at CMSWire on almost a daily basis, and the latest to join in on our tune are Enterprise CMS provider SpringCM and Kodak.

The two companies are now working together to provide a SaaS platform that enables rapid digitization and remote, subscription-based access to information. Through both faster processing time and lower ownership costs, an increase in productivity for less money is surely on the horizon.

In addition to recently wowing the CMS world by giving away a f*ree edition of its records management module, SpringCM just released version 4.5 of its SaaS Enterprise Content Management System.

The new release, while heavily focused on process management, also includes enhancements designed to improve document-centric processing and the SpringCM user experience.

There is one word everyone loves to hear, and that word is “free.” SpringCM has decided to appeal to customers who love that word — the company is giving away its records management solution to existing customers who are already taking advantage of SpringCM’s document management and workflow platform capabilities. The catch: well, this offer only lasts until 2011 comes around.

SpringCM, an enterprise document management and workflow vendor, released its Accounts Payable Automation Solution in integration with Intacct’s on-demand financial management and accounting applications.

The new document management solution aims to improve productivity and reduce expenses by making paper-based processes obsolete in the accounting and financial industries.
