Welcome to the weekend and to our column highlighting some of the main happenings of this week.
We looked at how the latest standard CMIS can be used to manage content intelligently by providing a layer of simplicity and a standard interface for all CMSs. Among other topics this week, we talked about how to calculate your Enterprise CMS ROI, but also, more importantly, how to protect your return on investment projections and minimize any negative influences in your ECM project via change management, for example.
