In a nutshell, robotic process automation, or RPA, is software that automates business processes. Essentially, it acts as a robot that learns standardized and repeatable tasks, like data entry or logging into applications. Just think about something you do on a computer all the time in the exact same way …. and then think about […]
The future of business may very well be a paperless paradise, but the present certainly isn’t. Here at Blue Fish, we often help our clients optimize their digital content and workflows, but what about the stacks of paper your team is still dealing with? Not only is there the challenge of digitizing roomfuls of files […]
Most people think of ECM as a way for companies to store content. Many people also think it’s one of the most boring topics they could possibly read about. But if that’s you, you probably aren’t familiar with the modern benefits it brings to businesses. Technology has dramatically changed pretty much everything, including ECM. It’s […]
Technology is driving advancements all over the business world, and ECM is no exception. The goal of managing content at enterprise levels has always been to improve efficiency and security for businesses, even when ECMs simply stored unstructured data. The parallel goals of ECM vendors and the businesses they serve have converged to put this […]
Once you’ve committed to implementing an ECM for your company, a few questions may arise during the process. You might wonder why a place to store content is so expensive (we answered that question here) or how long it will be before it’s up and running. Aside from the obvious time required to digitize any […]
When I talk with clients about ECM solutions one of the most common questions is: “Why does this cost SO MUCH?!” For companies implementing an ECM for the first time, or even those looking to modernize their ECM, the costs can seem staggering at first. However, this perception often comes down to the simplistic stereotype […]

DO Ask for Vendor Demos As technology in the ECM field advances rapidly, it may be difficult […]
Once you’ve determined that your company is in need of an ECM, the search for a suitable vendor begins. However, in a rapidly evolving industry that has been growing for over 30 years, the search can quickly become overwhelming.

As we mentioned in our partner feature, M-Files’ solutions have kept abreast of these evolving demands. Their system provides cloud content management that supports integration and migration between platforms, and uses artificial intelligence to automate […]
In our prior blog, The CASE for ECM, we shared about a client we are working with who did not have an ECM (Enterprise Content Management) platform and had a big content management problem. They utilized a disorganized shared drive to store documents but also, regularly printed hundreds of pages of documents needing approval or for sharing […]
We recently started working with a new client who needed an Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system and had not really used any sort of ECM before, only a shared-drive. They were using a save and print methodology for their documentation which means that someone printed hundreds of pages every week to have a physical copy of […]
So you’re thinking about an ECM change… When considering migration from a legacy ECM system, stakeholders are often concerned about the obstacles that will occur in the data migration process. For instance, the size or complexity of the data is so great, how will we accomplish this without losing access to data during the possible […]
