Critical Content Management: Overcoming Silos for Enhanced Efficiency

According to Informa TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), one of the top five reasons an organization’s IT environments have become more complex is the increased data volumes and data sources across organizations. Organizations face increasing complexity from multiple “single sources of truth” across teams, mainly when dealing with mission-critical content types that don’t fit neatly into widely used, general-purpose platforms.

While consolidating these silos might be a long-term goal, organizations need solutions that can unify access and governance across all content types without disrupting existing workflows. Success requires taking a strategic approach that considers complex data types, enables collaboration, and maintains security and governance while working with—rather than replacing—existing platforms.

This paper by ESG will:

• Outline the complexities of content management across various industries and organizations.

• List the processes that help identify where content lives and what security and governance requirements are necessary.

• Unveil the essential capabilities needed when looking for a content management solution.
