GLOBODOX, the enterprise document management company, is a happy place as they complete fourteen successful years in document management. The software is set to have much more in store and has made big plans for 2013 according to the sources at ITAZ Technologies, the makers of GLOBODOX. (PRWEB) January 08, 2013 GLOBODOX, the enterprise document management company, is a happy place as they complete fourteen successful years in document management. The software is set to have much more in store and has made big plans for 2013 according to the sources at ITAZ Technologies, the makers of GLOBODOX. Shiraz Ahmed, CEO of ITAZ had much to say about the occasion. He said “Looking back through the years, it feels amazing to know where we have reached. This is definitely an important landmark. It makes me happier to think that we are already in process of looking ahead with our plans for next year.” Shiraz also spoke about challenges in information management for companies in the upcoming years. He said “We are looking ahead at the most daunting challenges in information management. With the improved environmental understanding, most companies are aiming at environment friendly options for processes. So I think, one challenge for companies in 2013 would be to get more out of their investment in document management software by spreading its use to other departments. Not only will they get more bang for the buck but they will also significantly reduce the use of paper within the organization.” Shiraz also spoke at length about the Information Explosion and challenges to protect private information. He explained “Businesses need to work harder to deal with additional devices. It is not difficult to block access to a device once it is reported lost or stolen. But only having a product with a strong audit trail will tell you what was viewed, modified or deleted till the time access was blocked.” The last but perhaps the most important challenge according to Shiraz however, seems to be the Uniform Information Access. Elaborating the same, Shiraz says “Today it would not be uncommon for the user to have a Windows Desktop machine, an Apple MacBook, an iPad tablet and an Android smartphone. The challenge is to make information accessible from all such devices. This means having a uniform method of information access across devices. At ITAZ we will be concentrating on this challenge in 2013. “ About ITAZ Technologies ITAZ Technologies designs easy to use document management software for businesses of all sizes.
