From EDMS to Low-Code CSP system. Docsvision on new solutions

Electronic document management systems have made evolutionary jumps several times over the past 15 years. First, from the classic tasks of automating the office to organizing document storage using ECM-class systems. Then to automate business processes using BPM class systems. A new stage of development is CSP platforms, which combine all previous achievements, but allow you to remain flexible and independent of changing business conditions, thanks to the Low-Code tools (setting up the system without programming).

The Docsvision platform is a good example of how the development path from the EDMS to the CSP platform took place. Thanks to the wide Low-Code functionality, the platform has made an evolutionary transition, and now it can be used to solve business problems beyond the automation of the office.

On March 17, at the conference "EDMS AND ECM Day 2021," Docsvision President Vladimir Andreev, using the Docsvision platform as an example, will talk about the development of electronic document management in organizations and answer the question of what we really call EDMS today.

And Vladimir will talk about what results companies are achieving today using a platform with Low-Code functionality on the free webinar on March 18 "How to increase business efficiency using the BPM system?"

2018

Brand Update

On February 12, 2019, Docsvision announced that it had updated its corporate identity. The goal of the rebranding was not only to update the visual component of the brand. As the company representatives explained, the design changes represent all the large-scale changes that occurred in Docsvision in 2018: the release of the Docsvision 5.5 version with the updated architecture, the appearance of the Docsvision ECM edition with unlimited segment scalability, and a corresponding change in product positioning.

All these changes were reflected on the docsvision.com website - elements of the updated style optimally supplemented the design of the version of the site presented in August 2018.

The logo is presented in two equal versions: the corporate colors, the "icon," the spelling of the name have been updated.

Visual elements have become more concise, fresh, brighter at the expense of juicier colors. Modern and simple forms do not distract from the main content and provide it with a decent frame - this was especially appreciated by the company's employees in the corporate presentation template.

The previous version of the Docsvision logo - with a paper clip - was with the company from its very foundation in 2005, several times passed the "facelift," acquiring increasingly elegant and modern forms.

However, the image of the paper clip, which perfectly suited the product and company at the beginning of the journey, no longer reflects the realities of digital transformation and the capabilities that the February 2019 version of the Docsvision platform provides to users, the company emphasized.

For the first quarter of 2019, work is planned to change the logo and style in the company's materials and information about Docsvision on all available resources.

2011: Revenue from license sales $4 million (+ 13 %)

Compared to the results of 2009, the growth of Docsvision for 2010 amounted to 47% against 17% in the IT industry as a whole (according to IDC data published in October 2010). At this time, solutions based on DocsVision are used in 14 companies from the list of the 50 largest companies in Russia (according to Finance magazine), and in 11 out of 27 federal executive authorities of the Russian Federation.

DocsVision started its own business in 2005.

Partners

2013: DocsVision conducts first 'serious purge' of partner network

In 2013, DocsVision conducted the "first serious cleaning" of the partner network in its history, President of the company Vladimir Andreev told TAdviser in February 2014. According to DocsVision representatives, the company revised and tightened the requirements for partners, after which it refused to cooperate with about 20 of them.

The company explained to TAdviser that mostly inactive partners in the regions that had 1-2 DocsVision projects were eliminated: "from the point of view of economic efficiency, we decided to help develop and invest in those companies that plan with DocsVision long-term business than try to maintain ties with companies that do not plan to seriously engage in this business," says DocsVision CEO Julia Fedorovich.

The revision of the requirements for partners mainly affected the level of their competencies: now partners are subject to rather strict requirements in terms of certification of specialists. The requirements for the initial level of knowledge of the partner's team, as well as for the level of his activity in the number of projects, have also increased.

The DocsVision business model involves selling through partners. Julia Fedorovich explained the need to revise the requirements for them to TAdviser, including the fact that DocsVision had to spend a lot of effort on solving problems for customers with whom partners with insufficient competencies worked.

According to Fedorovich, often her company had to adjust the architecture of the solution being implemented and its functionality, chosen to solve specific client tasks.

Along with refusing to cooperate with insufficiently competent and inactive partners, DocsVision established cooperation with new ones. The company says that in 2013 its partner network was replenished with 39 new partners in 11 cities of Russia. The total number of partners at DocsVision at the beginning of 2014 was 102 companies. At the same time, the most developed partner network is in Moscow and Samara.

The CEO of DocsVision explained such a significant increase in partners in 2013 by TAdviser by the appearance of a special employee in their company who recruits partners. DocsVision plans to continue expanding the partner network in 2014, increasing its number by another 20 companies.
