Three Questions To Ask If You're Considering An ECM Software Upgrade

By Ben Vaughan

Does your business, agency or organization have an enterprise content management (ECM) system in place? If so, you already realize what an integral role the system plays in your daily operations.

Converting or upgrading your system can be a scary proposition. Whether you are working with an unsupported legacy system, your current needs have changed or you’re considering an upgrade, you probably have questions similar to these:

• Will an update or conversion cost me an arm and a leg?
• If we convert to a new system, how will we re-train all of our users and administrative team?
• Will converting to a new system be worth it? If so, how can I justify the conversion to management?
• Has anyone ever even converted from my current system to the new systems on the market?
