Part 3: Resellers Who Are Changing The Rules
Many Value-added Resellers (VARs) have struggled during the recent economic downturn. Those that have survived, are more savvy about improving efficiencies within their own businesses as well as selecting technology partners who offer them maximum control over their strategies and markets. As we continue to recover from the "Great Recession," 46% of resellers say they are once again investigating opportunities to expand their product lines. However, they're doing so from a more cautious and knowledgeable standpoint.
Enterprise Content Management is a technology that is expected to outpace the overall growth of the software market, so it represents an attractive new product opportunity for VARs. When deployed through the cloud, ECM becomes even more attractive to resource-strapped resellers who want to add new products without investing in hardware or new personnel. Though sometimes overlooked, VARs have an important role to play in the Real World of Cloud ECM.

Part 4: Wealth Managers Facing Information Tsunami
Have you seen an upswing in the number of records you are managing in your brokerage Described by economists as the "Great Recession," the economic downturn that occurred during 2008 and 2009 has indelibly changed the way Americans
respond to investing and retirement planning. We are
more thorough in vetting options and cautious about
risky choices, and we are balancing our portfolios with
more conservative options. Our changing habits have
impacted the brokers and securities dealers who help
us manage our investments.
This economic downturn did not equate with a downturn in the complexity of tracking wealth management records, however. "We did not experience the recession in our business," says Fran Eppy, Director of Operations at Eppy Financial Group. Fran points out that changing habits have increased investor interaction with brokers and dealers resulting in more communications records than ever before. Each of these records has to be maintained in a records archive and made accessible based on regulations issued by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).
ECM technologies help manage the pressures of records management and retention for securities firms and brokerages. Cloud-based ECM systems are especially well-suited to organizations with branch offices in multiple locations and for those with limited IT resources. Implementation is quick, offering wealth management companies the opportunity to get control of records immediately.
