Web Asset Manager

The Immediacy Web Asset Manager's (WAM) primary purpose is to provide a repository for the document filetypes and other assets that organisations may wish to display via their Immediacy driven websites. The Immediacy WAM allows files to be managed through ‘library services’, such as check in/out and version control.

 

Immediacy WAM is a viable and effective way to get documents moved out of inefficient ‘shared drive’ silos and providing a single, controlled source of documented information, particularly if that documentation is destined for a webpage, either on an organisation's Intranet of public facing websites .

 

From a technical perspective, a standard protocol called WebDAV (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning) at the core of the Immediacy WAM and provides flexibility in the way documents can be accessed. For example, users can choose to use the familiar Windows Explorer interface or the specially designed browser-based Immediacy WAM one.

 

  • A user-friendly interface and comprehensive toolset makes it very straightforward to create secure, collaborative spaces online for sharing and updating documents, prior to making them live on Immediacy-driven sites

 

  • Electronic documents of different types can be created and managed using basic content services, including:

o Document version control

o File check-in/check-out

o Comments and alerts

 

  • Advanced and highly sophisticated, custom workflow processes can be automatically deployed through the integration of Skelta’s powerful workflow software

 

  • Paper documents can be rapidly captured into the library via eCopy’s printer/scanner connector

 

  • Web-based Distribution and Versioning (WebDAV), an extension to the established HTTP system, enables you to manage documents across multiple sites. There’s no proprietary coding to worry about and users can access documents either through Windows Explorer or the native Immediacy DMS interface

 

  • Document administration, categorisation management, task assignment, collaboration and versioning tools enable you to make sure documents are always complete, accurate and traceable

    • Individual links/images
    • Quick menu
    • Combined search
