BlueCielo ECM Solutions (formerly Cyco) News
Over the last few months, there has been a lot of news in
this area! First of all in April, Cyco Software announced
that they were changing their company name to BlueCielo ECM
Solutions. In the name BlueCielo, Cielo is a widely
recognizable word that means sky in multiple languages and
was chosen because the sky connects people regardless of
work culture, time or place. Combining multiple languages in
the BlueCielo name demonstrates the companys goal to remove
barriers between people in different company departments and
locations and connect them in a seamless manner. It also
underlines the companys truly international presence and
its goal to help clients coordinate and streamline their
operations on a worldwide scale.
In conjunction with this name change, the products formerly
known as AutoManager Meriidan and AutoManager TeamWork
are now known as InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise and
InnoCielo TeamWork, with term Inno standing for the word
innovation.
The term Engineering Content Management (ECM) describes
BlueCielo's software solutions, which enable companies to
manage and exchange engineering content drawings, data,
technical asset information and related files with the
rest of the (extended) organization, including internal
departments, contractors, suppliers and customers. In
addition at Hagerman & Company, we have found that
BlueCielos products work extremely well for the data and
document management needs of everyone in an organization
including sales, marketing, accounting, quality, upper
management and human resources.
One important note is that there is no change in company
management or ownership in regard to the name change. In
fact, BlueCielo is doing extremely well as a company with
sales up 25 percent in 2006 and 45 percent so far in 2007.
In June, BlueCielo released the 2007 version of their
Meridian and TeamWork products. New features include:
-
Support for the latest versions of Autodesk and
SolidWorks software
-
Support for the latest Microsoft operating systems
-
New content searching and security features
For Meridian users, a new Advanced Document Workflow (ADWF)
feature was added. ADWF offers a set of workflow features
that can be implemented through configuration. Features such
as configurable workflow, parallel review, logging and email
notification allow for complex workflow implementations
without the need to resort to elaborate custom programming
Other new Meridian-only features include:
-
A high performance option for sites with large vaults
and large numbers of users
-
Improved briefcase capabilities including use of the
standard Zip format for communicating with outside
suppliers, contractors, consultants and other external
parties
In addition, a number of new and enhanced add-on products
and modules are available for Meridian including:
-
Integration with Sharepoint, Documentum and other
enterprise document management software products
-
Integration with other in-house maintenance management,
financial and facility management products
-
Global Collaboration Framework (GCF) for multi-site
document sharing, collaboration, workflow and
replication
-
InnoCielo Publisher for automatic rendering of documents
to PDF, DWF, TIF, etc.
