Records Mgmt & Archiving

With a sample of 241 organizations the new survey from AIIM has been published:

http://www.aiim.org/Research-and-Publications/Research/Industry-Watch/Information-Management-2016

The long running issues persist:
- e-Mail is still the big untagged, ungoverned and high-risk content type (39% describe their email mgmt as "chaotic"
- Dominance of Sharepoint: 40% describe Sharepoint as their "main" system; only 8% are using digital signing!
- 47% have an IG-policy that defines retention periods but half are not auditing compliance and 15% admit that those policies are mostly ignored (sic!)
- strong persistence of EFSS as ECM solution (enterprise file system & synchronization), 31% think that EFSS is taking over many ECM functions
- only 8% are working on a 3-tier system approach : collaboration+ECM (active phase) + RM (for inactive phase / archiving)
- 27% of mid-size and large orgs have no capture and workflow in place
