Update: Microsoft lists NetDocuments as a Software Partner on the Microsoft website, profiling NetDocuments, the partnership, and the developments and strategic alignment with Azure, Office 365, and ndOffice.
Today, NetDocuments, a leading cloud-based document and email management (DMS) provider, announced that it will fully integrate its services with Microsoft cloud technologies, helping to transform law firm and legal department productivity in the cloud.
"El anuncio de hoy de NetDocuments demuestra su compromiso de utilizar la última tecnología de Microsoft y ofrecer soluciones a sus clientes que se integran con las herramientas de productividad que utilizan hoy", dijo Nishan DeSilva, director senior de Soluciones Tecnológicas y Evangelismo, Asuntos Legales y Corporativos de Microsoft. "Al integrar sus servicios basados en la nube con tecnologías de Microsoft, los clientes de NetDocuments ahora pueden aprovechar las capacidades de la nube de nivel empresarial y el alcance global de Office 365 y Azure".
"Los bufetes de abogados ahora están buscando un DMS que pueda llevar a sus firmas al futuro, uno que tenga una integración estratégica directa de nube a nube con las tecnologías de Microsoft que utilizan a diario", afirmó Matt Duncan, director ejecutivo de NetDocuments. "La integración de NetDocuments con las nuevas tecnologías en la nube de Microsoft establece un nuevo estándar para la flexibilidad de la infraestructura y las herramientas de productividad en el lugar de trabajo moderno". Los aspectos clave incluyen:
- Azure. NetDocuments is working with Microsoft to design an Azure hosted version of NetDocuments DMS solution, which will include all existing features and functionality.
- Office 365. NetDocuments is committed to delivering access to its DMS data through the Office Add-in model, which will allow access to core productivity activities within the tools directly. The NetDocuments email management solution "NetDocuments EM" (formerly "Decisiv Email") will also be fully integrated with Exchange Online.
- Matter Center for Office 365. NetDocuments is working with the Matter Center for Office 365 team to integrate additional Office 365 design patterns to provide an end-to-end robust document and email management solution on the Azure cloud platform. Matter Center development, a SharePoint-based collaboration system, will continue for use by Microsoft and will be externally available through select partners.
- ndOffice. ndOffice, a NetDocuments-built legal DMS application that brings the cloud directly to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, will become more broadly and deeply integrated with Microsoft technologies by leveraging the API capabilities of Office 365 and NetDocuments. Supported capabilities include: device synchronization, mobile apps, concurrent multi-user editing, mobile security, OneDrive for Business and NetDocuments content exchange, among others.
- Partners and Customers. By moving to Azure and extending to the Office Add-in model, partners will be able to build onto existing framework and increase customer value through their offerings. Customers will have access to cloud-based document management, email, and electronic records management solutions that leverage Microsoft technologies, including Office 365, OneDrive, Azure, Exchange Online, as well as NetDocuments' technologies for predictive filing, private hybrid storage, shared encryption custody, and mobility.
