What is Intelligent Information Management?

Connected Content. Smarter Business.

Avoid the risk of disconnected data

Content siloed in several systems is a reality for many businesses — and that chaos can have devastating consequences and severe risk. No one knows exactly what data there is and where it can be found. This means that it is harder to scale and make fact-based decisions, or ensure data is handled the way it should be.

What we mean by Intelligent Information Management (IIM)?

Information at your service, exactly when you need it. That’s been the objective ever since document management emerged. IIM is all the stuff we like about document management plus much more — like visibility and integration across systems and repositories, along with enhanced business process automation. And much more — that is the transformational power of IIM.

Connecting Silos

It’s not about where data is stored — it’s about the right content, at the right time, for the right person.

You don’t need to know where something is stored

M-Files, while being a place to store content, also gives you the ability to access other systems and archives to search for, edit, and manage documents.

You only need to know what you are looking for

With M-Files, files and documents are labeled by what they are — which project, which customer, which user — so that it is always easy to find what you need.

We make it easy for you

Not only can you find everything easily — even using other systems as your user interface — you can enjoy the benefits of automation to handle routine tasks and compliance.

How is IIM different?

Let’s define the terms that are often used to refer to some similar things. And what it is essentially that makes intelligent information management stand out.

Document Management

This is where it all started, and it is still an essential use case. Documents need to be stored, tracked, and managed in electronic format.

With IIM…

IIM adds the ability to do this across systems. And, it adds the intelligence that helps automate document management routines.

Enterprise Content Management (ECM)

ECM extends traditional document management with timelines and processes. It connects people, processes, and technology together meaningfully.

With IIM…

IIM extends this single repository with a neutral approach toward the back- and front-end solutions used to store and access the data.

Content Services Platform

The concept of a Content Services Platform was introduced by Gartner a few years ago. These are essentially platforms to run intelligent information management on. These platforms can be used as a repository on their own, but they also provide connections to external repositories. M-Files is a content services platform that delivers intelligent information management.

What our customers say

Newark & Sherwood Homes

“It was often taking our staff half a day to simply locate a document. If we cannot quickly locate information required by our tenants, the board, or a member of the council, we risk damaging our reputation and even fines.”
