Lotus Domino Document Manager

Organization-wide control system
IBM® Lotus® Domino® Document Manager helps you manage a diverse range of content across and beyond the organization. Employees can author and save documents using familiar desktop applications, such as Microsoft® Office; submit documents for review and approval within or across workgroups; and store and archive information from a centralized document library. For dispersed teams, Lotus Domino Document Manager also uniquely supports replication.

Collaboration
Collaboration within and across workgroups is facilitated with a host of document library services that help teams manage and track documents throughout the life cycle: collaborative authoring, document check-in and check-out, version control, revision history, audit trail creation, publishing and archiving capabilities, threaded discussions and offline support. For enhanced collaboration, Lotus Domino Document Manager easily integrates with IBM Lotus Notes® software to provide e-mail capabilities. Instant messaging and presence awareness can be enabled with IBM Lotus Sametime® software.

Integration
Out-of-the-box integration with a variety of other IBM collaboration offerings helps you make the most of your IT investments: IBM Lotus Notes and IBM Lotus Domino, IBM Lotus Sametime, IBM WebSphere® Portal and IBM Lotus Workflow™ software. Lotus Domino Document Manager also integrates easily with other existing IBM Business Partner offerings.

Flexibility
Unlike some document management solutions, Lotus Domino Document Manager doesn't lock you into a proprietary operating system and directory. Instead, Lotus Domino Document Manager enables you to choose the best overall environment for your users by supporting multiple environments, including Microsoft Windows®, IBM AIX®, Sun Solaris and IBM iSeries™ technology.
