In case you haven’t heard, last month we released version 4.2.4 of our records management software. It includes many new features that were developed in response to a gap in the market created by legacy solutions.
FileTrail is proud to announce that we recently signed a multi-year contract with South Carolina-based law firm Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough, LLP. With 17 offices and over 500 attorneys, the firmexplored several possible records management options before choosing FileTrail to ensure that its next records management solution aligned with its software needs.
At this time, physical records were king and office after office were flooded with records that needed to be organized and controlled. Records Managers were then heralded in to create structure out of records chaos.
Now, 30-40 years later, records have, for the most part, become digital and the drive towards paperless records looks ever more likely. Physical records still remain, but they have significantly decreased, particularly with the advances in digitization technology. These digital records encompass, but are not limited to, emails, electronic documents, databases, and digital media. With this dramatic shift and ease of digital storage, Records Managers are now in charge of more records than ever before.
We’re excited about the upcoming ARMA Live! 2017 conference at the Orlando World Center Marriott October 15th – 17th. The agenda promises many interesting sessions about the latest innovations in records management and information governance. Come by, say hi and sign up to win an Apple Watch or an Amazon Echo.
In a recent AIIM meeting, top industry thought leaders came together to ponder the issue of why organizations do not handle their information assets as seriously as they handle their financial, physical, or human assets. The way an organization manages its information assets is what can set them far above and beyond others.
We’re excited about the upcoming ARMA LA conference on April 20, 2017. This year’s conference theme is focused on evolving technologies and keeping RIM (records information management) relevant.
A few weeks ago, our team attended the ARMA Live! 2017 conference at the Orlando World Center Marriot. We were impressed with its forward-thinking theme, “Agents of Change,” which focused on the evolving roles of ARMA members everywhere.
If you’re reading this, odds are you are looking to replace an aging records management software system. We’re hearing from most large firms that their software is either being sunsetted or it’s simply too clumsy and inefficient. As you surely know, both issues lead to high costs because aging systems require a lot of internal support. But we have it on good authority (our customers) that we can provide a better way.
Outdated records management software has become a high-profile problem for law firms of all sizes. Not only are many systems being sunsetted, others simply no longer meet law firms’ extensive paper and electronic governance needs. This situation puts many CIOs in a bind. Change is tough. And finding records management software that is easy to use by both technical and non-technical folks alike can be daunting. Faced with so many options, it’s sometimes easier to ignore the problem altogether.
While involving the CFO in valuing your company’s data may not seem like a top priority, doing so will better demonstrate your organization’s overall corporate wealth to the board and investors. Even non-economic indicators of information value, quality, and performance can help IT organizations and business in managing and leveraging information. According to a presenter at the AIIM meeting, the average tangible assets of a corporation represented 83% of its actual value in 1975, however, today that number is just 20%. Organizations that are persistent on becoming information-centric, as well as those that have information-based business models, should make sure to audit the actual and potential value of their information assets.
