In today’s hybrid work environment, organisations rely heavily on Microsoft SharePoint and Teams for collaboration, document sharing, and communication. However, without proper integration with a robust records management system like OpenText Content Manager, these platforms can become compliance risks rather than productivity enablers.
Why Integration Is Necessary
Microsoft 365 tools like SharePoint and Teams generate vast amounts of unstructured data - emails, chats, documents, and media - that must be classified, retained, and disposed of according to policy.
Without integration, this data remains siloed, difficult to audit, and vulnerable to non-compliance. OpenText Content Manager provides the structure and control needed to manage this data lifecycle effectively.
Benefits of Integration
Integrating SharePoint and Teams with OpenText Content Manager offers several strategic advantages:
- Automated Compliance: Automatically classify, index, and retain digital records in accordance with legal and regulatory requirements.
- Improved Data Accessibility: Centralised access to records across platforms enables faster, better-informed decisions while maintaining strict access controls.
- Enhanced Security: Role- and attribute-based access controls, encryption, and storage protect sensitive data and ensure defensibility.
- AI-Ready Data: Structured and classified data becomes usable for analytics and AI/ML tools, unlocking new business insights.
