Built for the cloud, OpenText ™ eDOCS future-proofs enterprises with secure,
intuitive and flexible legal content management solutions that enable users to accesstheir documents anywhere—improving user efficiency and productivity, lowering IT
costs and accelerating deployment.
According to IDG Research, nine out of 10 companies will have some part of theirapplications or infrastructure in the cloud by 2019, and the rest expect to follow
by 2021.1 It is no wonder, given the benefits of scalability, lower infrastructure andmaintenance costs, decreased burden on IT, accelerated deployment and greateruser efficiency. However, a plethora of hosting options, ranging from public toprivate to hybrid, can slow the planning and management required to transition fromon-premises to the cloud.
With eDOCS in the cloud, organizations gain the business advantage of a cloudarchitected, modern and visually intuitive content management system thatfits within an organization’s cloud strategy and supports full functionality, suchas Microsoft® Office applications for matter-centric work, while seamlessly
providing instant user access across devices and locations to enhance user andteam productivity.

Flexible cloud options that match specific business, IT andsecurity needs
Because a single strategy does not fit all, OpenText offers flexible options basedon an organization’s preference, seamlessly moving eDOCS from on-premises to thecloud--using the same governance framework used by the most bulletproof
on-premises systems.
The flexibility of the eDOCS content management platform architecture allows
connectivity of existing on-premises eDOCS libraries with new eDOCS libraries inthe cloud. Organizations can transition to a full cloud environment over time, as they
decommission on-premises libraries.
With cloud-ready, highly scalable architecture, OpenText offers cloud options thatwork the way you do:• OpenText Cloud: Bring together the power of cloud computing with deep
expertise in management and optimization of the eDOCS platform andadd-ins—managed end-to-end by OpenText Managed Services.
• Flexible cloud hosting: Manage eDOCS solutions optimally in a variety ofpublic clouds, including Google Cloud Platform™, Microsoft® Azure® orAmazon Web Services.

“The big change wesaw when we moved toOpenText eDOCS was theability to not only store
everything together basedon the client matter number,which was a big change
and very useful for us, butit also gave us the ability
to do full index searching.
It has revolutionized ourability to find things.”

Most comprehensive security features available in a content
management platform
Legal professionals hold a trove of valuable data and are vulnerable to data
breaches. eDOCS includes basic security features, such as two-factor
authentication, metadata security and information transmittal via secure socket layer(SSL)—along with two additional layers of security with OpenText™ eDOCS Defense.
This module, only available from eDOCS, closes the information security gap at
the device level, with document-level encryption and activity monitoring. eDOCS
Defense ensures that not even system administrators can see document contents
without authorization. The only way to decrypt information is from the eDOCS
interface, which keeps a full audit trail of who has accessed a document, when they
accessed it and what action they took. Additionally, organizations can pre-empt aninternal breach with monitored activity alerts. With eDOCS Defense, organizations cansend templated alerts before and after sensitive information has been locked down, tofurther mitigate the risk and cost of a data breach, even safeguarding information fromauthorized users.
