Content Services solution OpenText™ Content Suite
Ensure compliant management of content throughout its lifecycle
What is a content services platform?
Content services platforms build on the strengths of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) platforms to integrate content lifecycle management, information access and governance further into business processes.
Content-focused tasks, such as document and records management, data capture and indexing, classification, workflow management, version control and analytics are applied to content stored within the native repository or to information housed in external repositories and systems. When selecting the best content services platform, look for a system that offers multiple user interfaces to make it easy for users to work with content from whichever device or system is most efficient for their needs.
OpenText Content Suite overview

Content Suite provides the infrastructure for secure, compliant management of content throughout its lifecycle, while enhancing usability and productivity.
Content Suite can be deployed either on-premises or via flexible public, private or hybrid cloud models to offload the infrastructure investment and focus on strategic projects.

Customer success stories
The OpenText Content Suite 16 user interface is clean, modern, easy to use, and works on any device; desktop, tablet, and mobile. We invested in Release 16 for our long-term future, but we began to benefit immediately.
Our vision is to deliver and support effective and efficient content management across the enterprise while allowing for business unit flexibility. With OpenText, our team works much more effectively because we have the program, services, and strategy along with the technology.
The biggest driver for information management at Bruce Power is both security and innovation. Obviously we’re a regulated business, and we have to comply with a lot of regulation. But what’s really important, too, is that we take the investment we’ve made in that platform and innovate from it.
