Harness the value of
information silos

Databases, servers, ERP and CRM platforms, Microsoft SharePoint, file directories… Your company stores valuable information in numerous places — mostly isolated and difficult to locate. The result: Delays to critical business processes and an impaired ability to provide information. Content federation services from Doxis4 link together all your information systems. You manage documents and data consistently and in the right context, creating a central point of access to information for users, regardless of the storage location. With Doxis4, you bring information back from obscurity and make business processes run seamlessly.
