Content Circles, Alfresco Team for Simple but Robust Doc Collaboration
Summary
The new connector enables Alfresco ECM users to share, collaborate, track and manage content offline or online. The tool synchronizes content across a team by allowing documents and files uploaded into the designated Circle to be replicated and delivered to all members, even when they’re offline. Users can reportedly track the movement, edits or changes to these documents as they are synced to the original copy, still sitting happily in chez Alfresco. "Governance, retention and compliance will be key themes for content management in 2009,” said John Powell, CEO of Alfresco software. “With this solution, Content Circles offers a secure Alfresco bridge to provide organizations with inter-repository auditability and compliance in a peer-to-peer environment.
