A tech firm operating under the Hong Kong Smart Government Innovation Lab announced that it has launched a solution that is now ready to be acquired by companies and institutions. The firm’s technology is a single Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solution for managing documents, content, processes and cases. Storing important information in one centralized place grants users complete control over it; unique records management and retention requirements are also well within users’ grasp.
OnBase is a single platform, with complete, end-to-end functionality for managing documents, processes, enterprise applications and cases. It can integrate with existing business applications and address the need for governance, risk and compliance through the management and control of the content to enables organisations to operate more efficiently, effectively, and adaptively.
OnBase solves the problems associated with managing content across a variety of databases, systems and physical storage locations. Users have a single place to implement security policies and control who can access information and exactly what they can do with it. It also protects users from disaster by maintaining electronic copies of all documents across multiple servers and locations.
Application Areas
The solution was designed to be implemented in the areas of City Management, Commerce and Industry, Development, Education, Employment and Labour, Environment, Finance, Housing as well as Law and Security.
Technologies Used
The solution employs the latest in Artificial Intelligence (AI), Cloud Computing, Data Analytics, Deep Learning, Internet of Things (IoT), Machine Learning, Mobile Technologies, Natural Language Processing as well as Robotic Process Automation.
Use case
The Benefits of OnBase for an IT Department
- One platform, unlimited applications across your enterprise
OnBase is a single product, not a brand representing a large portfolio of acquired products. OnBase combines the ability to manage content, processes and cases on a single platform. This minimises IT sprawl by decreasing the number of systems you need to manage while reducing data silos and disconnected applications.
Leverage a flexible, low-code platform for content-enabled solutions across an enterprise – rapidly configuring new and consolidating existing applications. With point-and-click configurability, users don’t need to be developers or database administrators to create and maintain an OnBase solution.
The solution is built on a single end-to-end architecture, available on-premises or in the cloud. With one system to support, maintain and upgrade, there is a lower total cost of ownership while maintaining IT governance and control.
- Configurable without code
OnBase is point-and-click configurable, allowing the user to use checkboxes, radio buttons and drop-down menus to quickly configure and easily change solutions. That means no expensive, time-consuming and difficult-to-maintain coding or scripting.
- Scalable across organisations
OnBase scales as requirements evolve, so users will never outgrow the OnBase system. The solution can be implemented in one department and then it can be grown over time as needs and requirements change. Speed and performance can be maintained even as expansion continues.
- Continually enhanced
The development of OnBase is 100% in-house and never outsourced. Since our beginning in 1991, we’ve averaged two releases a year – one major and one minor. This ensures OnBase remains relevant with evolving industry trends, stays current with technological innovations, and supports the latest operating systems, browsers and applications.
- Easily upgradable
With OnBase, all the solution’s components are upgraded together, eliminating the challenges of upgrading multiple custom-coded or point solutions. Take advantage of incremental parallel upgrades, minimizing downtime by allowing more than one OnBase version to run simultaneously.
Benefits of OnBase for a Business User
- Providing employees with a complete view of information
OnBase automates processes, manages important business content in one secure location and works with users’ other applications to deliver information whenever – and wherever – users may need it.
