This post will try to wrap-up and summarize all the other postings, as well as express TSG’s opinion on the event.

Documentum, SharePoint, Alfresco – Document Control for Life Sciences
Published April 22, 2013 Active Wizard , Alfresco , D2 , Documentum , ECM Landscape , HPI , Migrations , Open Source , Webtop 1 CommentWe wanted to thank Rich Medina from Doculabs for a nice mention of our Complaince Solution/HPI in his post on How to select a Life Sciences Document Managment Solution. We agree with Rich that “the emergence of non-Documentum options as serious candidates to manage controlled documents in the life sciences industry” is something we are seeing more and more. This post will provide some of our thoughts on the Life Sciences Compliance decision process and add to some of Rich’s thoughts along with links to previous relevant posts.

Documentum or Alfresco – Create and Edit MS Word Documents Directly in HPI – TSG Labs
Published April 15, 2013 HPI , Open Source , TSG Labs Leave a CommentBefore we get started, we’d like to introduce a new category on the blog – TSG Labs. We’re planning on using it to introduce experimental and upcoming features of our products in order to get feedback from our readers and clients. In this inaugural installment, we take a look at how we could skip the step of creating and editing documents in Microsoft Word, remove the need for any plugins to download and import documents, and streamline the entire process by creating and editing documents directly within HPI.

Document Migrations – What do you need to know?
Published February 18, 2013 Migrations , OpenMigrate Leave a CommentTags: OpenMigrate
When we first meet with clients who are interested in using OpenMigrate to meet a migration need, they typically know that they need to move documents from one system to another, but many times they haven’t yet identified all of the specific migration requirements.

Documentum D7 – Initial Thoughts
Published February 5, 2013 Active Wizard , Content Server , D2 , D7 , DFC , DFS , Documentum , HPI , OpenContent , Upgrades , xCP 1 CommentAs many Documentum customers know, the end of 2012 saw the initial official release of Documentum D7, something that was announced back at EMC World in May. We have recently been evaluating the release to determine what’s new, what’s changed, and what the potential impacts could be for our clients as they plan for the future. We will be posting to the blog over the next weeks as we proceed through our evaluations and test upgrade paths so be sure to stay tuned, but we wanted to share some initial thoughts as well.
Documentum to Alfresco Migration – What about Solutions?
Published February 1, 2013 Active Wizard , Alfresco , D2 , Documentum , HPI , WeWebU , xCP 7 CommentsThe dominant theme at EMC World and Momentum Europe was a focus on solutions. Previous themes, particularly when announcing the discontinuation of solutions (ex: DCM, Marketing Asset Manager…), were focused on ECM infrastructure. In the past, both Documentum and Alfresco have focused being an infrastructure component that can be configured stand-alone or integrated into a variety of business solutions (ex: SAP) to provide content management. This post will examine the shift from infrastructure to solutions for the two companies, as well as present TSG’s goals with solutions for 2013.
