Are you confused?

Are you thinking, isn’t that what people call ECM systems? Yes, you are correct. And CSP and ECM is not the only thing this technology is called. It seems that every year or two someone comes out with a new title for this paperless software. Document Imaging was what we called it when I first started working on this technology over 25 years ago. But over the years this paperless office has many titles such as:

They two most common titles for this paperless software technology used today is ECM or Document Management System. But, don’t get too comfortable with them because I think more titles for this technology are coming. Because this technology is constantly evolving. Many call this digital transformation.

Document Management Software is Changing

In the fast few years, this paperless software technology has been rapidly changing. Aimed at helping make people more productive. The advent of powerful electronic forms processing allows data to be captured from users. And then it automates the processing of the form according to the organization’s business process. In addition, paperless systems can capture critical data more accurately using artificial intelligence. This is important to better capture critical data on documents that arrive as paper. And, now robotic process automation technology helps automate manual processes.

When paperless software systems evolve, experts try to come up with terms that better explain the new capability of these systems.
