EntropySoft, the content connection company, announced on Tuesday that it has closed a US$3.5 million funding round.
This first round of financing was led by Alven Capital and will fuel the next stage of EntropySoft's growth in the content connection market. EntropySoft was previously privately owned.
The company, founded in 2005, plans to use the money to further boost its technological expertise, grow its sales team and increase its US presence.
CEO Nicolas Maquaire said: “EntropySoft’s success is based on the quality and reliability of its software products. This is how we succeeded in signing technological agreements with more than 25 major US software vendors over the past two years. We now want to increase the visibility of our products for large organizations and add direct sales to our very successful OEM business model. With this new capital, we are going to reach a new level of expertise and visibility.“
Guillaume Aubin, Managing Partner at Alven Capital explains: « EntropySoft have a strong presence in a fast-growing market, with a technologically superior product offer. EntropySoft has proven that it has the vision and the execution track record to be a leader in their markets. This infusion of capital will position the company for an explosive year."
EntropySoft offers to software vendors and large corporations products to increase content management systems interoperability and manage easily document transfers. Large software companies such as EMC Documentum, Symantec or Endeca already signed OEM agreements to use EntropySoft technology. Saint-Gobain, the world leader in the habitat and construction markets, or Total, one of the biggest energy groups in the world, have selected the innovative EntropySoft products for some of their critical operations.
EntropySoft enables the real-time content synchronization of different content silos, such as SharePoint and IBM FileNet. There are many use cases for this technology inside the corporation itself and also to connect company repositories in the cloud and in-house. Real time content synchronization also changes the face of collaboration, directly between partners or for companies sharing documents in the
cloud.
EntropySoft’s star product is Content Hub. Content Hub centralizes the access to information and automates document transfers between Content Management Systems.
Content Hub is using EntropySoft’s 40 CMS connectors. EntropySoft’s portfolio of connectors is the secret sauce for EntropySoft’s success. The connectors are highly successful thanks to their unequalled features and market-tested robustness. They are the key to Content Hub’s capacity to connect to and work with documents in more than 40 Content Management Systems.
In March, EntropySoft unveiled a major new version of its Content Hub and added new features for synchronization, content transfers and automatic mapping of permissions, users and groups.
By increasing its technological lead, the company expects to continue signing OEM agreements and grow exponentially the number of direct customers in the coming 12
months.

Capture and save Twitter activities in a corporate digital vault
Thanks to EntropySoft, any organization can now transfer Twitter content in a corporate repository for improved information governance
EntropySoft, the Content Connection Company, made available in its Lab a new connector for Twitter. With this connector, EntropySoft is offering an easy way to archive Twitter content and is therefore improving information governance.
Thanks to this new Twitter connector, corporate tweets can be searched in a hierarchical manner, retrieved and archived. The tweets can be dynamically archived in the corporate archiving system and therefore be indexed for Search, Early Case Assessment or eDiscovery, For example, all tweets of company employees can now be saved and monitored easily, which is vital to control effectively corporate communication.
By using EntropySoft Content Hub, it only takes a matter of minutes to connect Twitter with an Enterprise repository platform and start archiving content.
“Content Hub, with its 40 pre-packaged Enterprise connectors, is the software of choice to integrate with the cloud. ECM Cloud companies like Box.Net are using this to connect their repositories to Enterprise content repositories. Other Cloud companies like social software or CRM companies are using Content Hub to provide an single entry point to company repositories, so as to include document services in their offers. Finally, Content Hub is also used to add features to corporate ECM systems by bridging Cloud services like document translation or digital signature services with corporate ECM systems.” said Nicolas Maquaire, CEO of EntropySoft. “With this new Twitter connector, we are now extending our product offering to micro-blogging and social networks. These popular new forms of online communication carry risks for companies because the content is discoverable, just like e-mail and any other electronically stored information (ESI). EntropySoft now has the technology to add Twitter to corporate retention policies.”
The Twitter connector is able to retrieve the following content and metadata:
• Tweets of a designated Twitter account
• Retweets (of tweets from the account, by the account holder or sent to the account holder)
• Followers of a specific account
• Direct tweets
• Tweets mentioning the account’s name.
Tweets can be retrieved using various search criteria: content, author, recipient, sent date etc…
Search is not limited to the account you are connecting with, but is done on all Twitter content.
Content Hub is also available as a pre-configured virtual environment where all EntropySoft products are already installed. This Virtual Machine is a turn-key solution which allows immediate deployment in a virtualized environment. Thus, any document management system or archiving platform, as well as Twitter, can be easily connected together and the document transfers managed.
Content Hub can handle simple out-of-the-box archiving processes. It can also be deployed in IBM Websphere or other large company infrastructures, so as to manage advanced document processes, Records Management for example.
Additionally, the Twitter connector is designed to be easily integrated in any third-party application and exposes the same API as the 40 other read/write EntropySoft connectors, making content management interoperability a reality.
All major Enterprise Content Management Systems are present in EntropySoft connectors’ portfolio: Microsoft SharePoint, EMC Documentum Content Server, IBM FileNET P8, Symantec Enterprise Vault, Interwoven TeamSite, Alfresco and more. All connectors have been fully tested on large implementations in critical business projects.

EntropySoft partners with Iron Mountain to offer secure cloud storage and digital archiving
Following the recent release of its Content Hub Appliance, EntropySoft, a specialist of content integration and connectivity, announces a partnership with information management company Iron Mountain. Electronic documents coming from as many as 35 document repositories can now be archived easily to Iron Mountain’s cloud-based storage archive, increasing EntropySoft’s ability to link the enterprise and the cloud.
Iron Mountain provides information management services for helping organizations to realize greater value from their paper and digital records. The company’s solutions for records management, data protection and secure shredding enable customers to protect and manage their information so they can optimize their business and ensure proper recovery, compliance and discovery. Through its Developer Program, Iron Mountain allows third parties and developers to integrate their solutions with its secure cloud archiving platform. This is the first instance of integration between EntropySoft and Iron Mountain.
EntropySoft’s Content Hub Appliance is a single platform that provides out-of-the-box connectivity to ECM systems. In a matter of hours, any customer can connect all its Content Management Systems to Content Hub Appliance and start moving documents to Iron Mountain’s archive. All the affiliates of a company can connect to the same platform and regroup in a single repository all critical corporate information, therefore increasing compliance with regulatory environments and facilitating eDiscovery.
“Companies are looking to leverage the cloud to reduce their information storage costs, and customers of EntropySoft can now do that securely and in a tightly integrated manner,” said Jaimin Patel, director of business development, Iron Mountain. “Iron Mountain has been offering secure cloud storage and archive solutions since 1995. More than just secure storage, though, our cloud solutions enable faster access to information and help organizations to address compliance and regulatory concerns, all while reducing the operational complexities and costs of data storage.”
The partnership between EntropySoft and Iron Mountain highlights EntropySoft’s capacity to solve the main concerns with cloud adoption: security and integration. Content Hub Appliance addresses these issues for documents, as it enables a secure link between the cloud and the enterprise.
“EntropySoft is very pleased with this partnership and integration. It takes only minutes to deploy our software appliance in a virtualized environment, therefore minimizing the efforts usually needed to connect enterprise and cloud repositories. Now companies of all sizes can archive simply all documents, reducing the costs and risks associated with storing and protecting important documents,” said Nicolas Maquaire, EntropySoft CEO.
Large organizations use EntropySoft products for managing advanced document processes. Software vendors use EntropySoft products to facilitate information access. Content Hub Appliance is the secure link between the Enterprise and the Cloud for all companies.
Content Hub Functionality
The virtual appliance can be downloaded from EntropySoft’s support site. It only takes minimal installation and configuration for the virtual machine to be ready to start operating in the customer environment. In a few minutes, the Appliance can be connected to all the company’s document repositories. A user-friendly web interface allows authorised company staff to search, browse and work with all connected repositories. Then a transfer “bridge” connects the chosen repositories to Iron Mountain’s digital archive. The bridge can also implement the customer’s specific requirements. Once the bridge is configured, the document archiving is effective.
Customers can select from different archiving options. Documents can be archived manually, on a scheduled basis or in real-time, For example, if this last option is chosen, as soon as a document is created in the document management system, it is instantaneously moved or copied to Iron Mountain’s digital archive.
The Iron Mountain cloud archive becomes a centralizing point for all the information stored in the various content silos of the company. This allows the Legal, IT and Compliance departments to cost-effectively manage in one place all relevant electronically-stored information.
Pricing and Availability
Using Content Hub Appliance is very cost-effective compared to specific developments usually associated with linking an archiving platform to content silos. The service is offered by EntropySoft on a monthly subscription basis and a pay-as-you-use model that includes content transfer and digital archiving.
About EntropySoft
EntropySoft is a specialist of content integration. EntropySoft’s mission is to connect applications to information. EntropySoft technology is used by software vendors and large companies to simplify integration of their products with Enterprise Content Management solutions and cloud repositories. Application fields are numerous: Enterprise Search, BPM, e-discovery, Records Management, Collaboration, Data Loss Prevention, Multi-Function Printers etc.

EntropySoft Cited As A Strong Performer in Enterprise Content Integration report By Independent Research Firm
EntropySoft was among the select companies that Forrester Research Inc. mentioned in its October 7, 2010 “Take A Process View Toward Enterprise Content Integration” report. In this evaluation, EntropySoft was mentioned as one of the “specialized ECI companies”
Forrester Research concluded that “in some cases, synchronization just saves money” and mentioned “EntropySoft’s ECI product to synchronize certain folders […] and avoid license costs”. Furthermore, Forrester Research took the example of “one large New York bank [that] used the Content ETL product from EntropySoft” and “This greatly simplified the user experience and the UI development”.
As repertory synchronization is becoming more frequent as a content integration method, Forrester Research chose EntropySoft customer to illustrate the benefits of synchronization, saying: “One large bank uses EntropySoft to synchronize in real-time the documents created in SharePoint with IBM FileNet. Users work in their preferred environment while documents are securely synchronized with the corporate repository. This synchronization approach avoids use of Web Parts and is relatively simple to deploy. »
“We are extremely pleased to be included in a report by Forrester Research,” said Nicolas Maquaire, EntropySoft CEO. “We feel this reflects our success in being at the forefront of innovation for content integration. Our new module for real-time synchronization of content repositories is a giant step forward for companies trying to solve their integration problems. Being able to move in real-time SharePoint-created content to Documentum is really helping companies with their archive, records management, or eDiscovery efforts”.
Content ETL is specifically designed to Extract, Transfer and Load documents to and from connected Enterprise repositories. It can handle the most advanced document transfers, while safekeeping all metadata. It is used for migration, archiving, records management and document distribution.
Thanks to the Track Repository Changes feature of the EntropySoft connectors, Content ETL offers a way to synchronize two repositories in real-time. The synchronization effectively removes the barriers surrounding the content repositories by synchronizing their content. Documents, metadata and permissions are automatically updated.
The synchronization process can be done across the firewall to synchronize distant heterogeneous repositories in different locations or companies. Documents can be exchanged with maximum speed, security and traceability. This process can also be applied to cloud repositories. Content ETL can also synchronize external content silos with internal applications.
Content ETL is possibly the most versatile product on the market to manage all unstructured data transfers. Thanks to its connectivity to 40 content silos and its powerful development studio, Content ETL handles all content transfer processes in the extended enterprise.
All major Enterprise Content Management Systems are present in EntropySoft’s portfolio: Microsoft SharePoint, EMC Documentum Content Server, Interwoven TeamSite, Alfresco and more. All connectors have been fully tested on large implementations in critical business projects.
EntropySoft brings Content Management Intelligence to its customers.

EntropySoft releases a SAP NetWeaver KM connector
EntropySoft, a specialist of Enterprise connectivity, released today a connector for SAP NetWeaver KM. By making this connector available, EntropySoft is increasing its ability to access information wherever it is stored.
Thanks to this new connector, synchronization between SAP NetWeaver KM and other enterprise repositories is now effective. Documents from SAP can be dynamically published to SharePoint or archived instantaneously in the cloud or in the corporate archiving system. The Search indexes of EntropySoft’s OEM partners can be refreshed in real-time and BPM applications can detect the creation of a new document and launch the corresponding business process dynamically.
Real-time synchronization is enabled by EntropySoft’s “Track repository changes” feature that is included in all its major Enterprise connectors.
“Real-time synchronization is an innovation solving numerous content integration use cases. EntropySoft’s bidirectional synchronization enables immediate replication of documents in heterogeneous document management systems. Documents coming from SAP NetWeaver KM can be archived automatically to Iron Mountain Digital Archiving or published in real-time in SharePoint” said Nicolas Maquaire, CEO and co-founder of EntropySoft. “By adding another enterprise connector to our list, we are moving closer to our corporate goal: connecting applications to information.”
The SAP NetWeaver KM connector supports all item types: repository, collections, resource, links etc… Web Services are deployed in SAP Enterprise Portal so as to manage users, security and repository changes. When using the connector, any third-party product or line-of-business application can access all above items.
The SAP NetWeaver KM connector is designed to be easily integrated in third-party applications and exposes the same API as the 40 other read/write EntropySoft connectors. Connection to an existing SAP NetWeaver KM repository can be achieved in a matter of seconds. The connector can also be used in conjunction with EntropySoft’s other products, Content Hub Appliance and Content ETL.
Content Hub Appliance is a pre-configured virtual environment where all EntropySoft products are already installed. This software appliance is a turn-key solution. Thus, any document management system can be easily connected to any archiving platform, in-the-cloud or on-premises. Furthermore, document repositories can be automatically synchronized in real-time.
Content ETL is designed to Extract, Transfer and Load documents to and from connected repositories. Large organizations can design graphically their most advanced document processes. All mandatory mappings can be easily done. Permissions and metadata are safely propagated. Content ETL ensures full-traceability of all content transfers and therefore increases compliance. Thanks to the SAP NetWeaver KM connector, the SAP repository can now be included in these document processes.
EntropySoft is a highly recommended global connector supplier. Possibly the only pure player on the connectivity market, EntropySoft is the supplier of connectivity for major US software vendors. In the last 18 months, EntropySoft signed more than 20 OEM contracts with some of the largest global software companies.
The extensive support of features and the number of connectors available make EntropySoft technology perfect OEM material for many software industries: all software that needs to interact with documents can benefit from EntropySoft’s Enterprise connectors. EntropySoft partners also benefit from in-depth expertise on the same content-centric systems, so as to facilitate the proof-of-concepts and roll-out.
All major Enterprise Content Management Systems are present in EntropySoft’s portfolio: Microsoft SharePoint, EMC Documentum Content Server, IBM FileNET P8, Interwoven TeamSite, Alfresco and more. All connectors have been fully tested on large implementations in critical business projects.
EntropySoft brings Content Management Intelligence to its customers.

Thanks to this new connector, synchronization between SAP NetWeaver KM and other enterprise repositories is now effective. Documents from SAP can be dynamically published to SharePoint or archived instantaneously in the cloud or in the corporate archiving system. The Search indexes of EntropySoft’s OEM partners can be refreshed in real-time and BPM applications can detect the creation of a new document and launch the corresponding business process dynamically.
Real-time synchronization is enabled by EntropySoft’s “Track repository changes” feature that is included in all its major Enterprise connectors.
“Real-time synchronization is an innovation solving numerous content integration use cases. EntropySoft’s bidirectional synchronization enables immediate replication of documents in heterogeneous document management systems.
