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.
