AI enhancing information management

When it comes to managing information across a company, the focus should be on what a file is and how it's used, not where it's coming from, according to the creators of M-Files. That's the foundation for M-Files 2018, the intelligent information management system developed by Finnish-based M-Files Corp., says Greg Milliken, SVP of marketing. "The traditional approach doesn't work anymore," said Milliken during a recent briefing call, referring to systems that further isolate information and aren't seamlessly accessible across a network within a business. "And the longer businesses hold on to this method, the worse it gets." With the help of AI tools that users can access through a unified interface, Milliken said information can now be accessed regardless of the system they originated from.
