eGistics, Inc., today announced the availability of eGistics ERM (Enterprise Report Manager), an easy-to-use hosted solution that electronically accepts, stores, indexes and distributes reports and print streams. eGistics ERM improves enterprise access to business information, reduces paper report printing, handling and storage requirements, and speeds document retrieval. A more flexible and cost-effective alternative to traditional computer output to laser disk
solutions, eGistics ERM allows users to access reports via the Web anytime, from any PC.
Despite all the hype about the paperless office, most companies still distribute reams of operational reports within their organization. Many others print and mail piles of customer documents every month (statements, bills, policies, terms and conditions, etc.). And it’s not unusual for a business to print extra copies of each of these documents for inclusion in the customer’s file or to provide to a sales agent.
When a customer has a question about one of these documents, a customer service agent may have to track down a physical copy – a manual, error-prone process that can take hours or days.
"Most organizations are buried in paper reports," said eGistics Executive Vice President of Sales and Corporate Development R. Edwin Pearce. "With eGistics ERM, they can reduce report printing and storage costs, improve processing efficiency, and better leverage existing IT investments. By putting reports online, organizations also can access and distribute key business information more quickly and cost effectively, and speed responsiveness to customer inquiries, and streamline compliance."
eGistics ERM enables users to electronically accept, organize, index and store reports and make the information available via the Internet to authorized staff, partners, customers, and vendors. According to Amer Khan, senior vice president of product management, “This means that remote users can quickly retrieve the information they require without the need to call a research department or to have physical documents sent to them. Authorized users can quickly print, fax, e-mail or download retrieved information, as well as add annotations to existing files.”
eGistics ERM can accept output from a variety of different sources, in a number of different formats. Once the information is organized, indexed and stored, eGistics ERM can then distribute individual pages or bundles of report pages across an enterprise. Other features include the ability to.
- Perform full-text searches of information by report content or by report generations
- Define report names and categories
- Export data to other software
- Define role- and user-based access, audit and authorization controls
- Convert mainframe report print streams into network printer readable format
- View reports online
- Provide a document repository
- Use point-and-click operations for system administration
- Set retention parameters and automatic purging/archival
Because it is a hosted solution, eGistics ERM requires no upfront capital; users pay as they go.
