Leading Law Firm, Mourant Ozannes, Selects Repstor ECM Adoption Software

Mourant Ozannes, one of the leading offshore law firms, has selected and is deploying Repstor affinity and assist to facilitate collaboration, sharing and easy filing of email and content into HP® Worksite®

London, 15 July 2015

Leading ECM Adoption specialist, Repstor, today announced that Mourant Ozannes, one of the leading offshore law firms, has selected and is deploying Repstor affinity and assist to facilitate collaboration, sharing and easy filing of email and content into its ECM platform HP® Worksite® for its Hong Kong office.

Mourant Ozannes is one of the leading offshore law firms, advising on the laws of the BVI, the Cayman Islands, Guernsey and Jersey. Clients include many of the world’s leading financial institutions, public companies, corporations and fund promoters as well as high net worth private clients. The Hong Kong office services clients based in the Asia Pacific region by providing multi-jurisdictional offshore legal advice. The highly rated team consists of partners and senior lawyers with significant experience across the leading offshore jurisdictions. The lawyers in Hong Kong specialize in corporate, finance, investment funds, and international trust work as well as litigation and insolvency matters. This requires the accurate filing of email, matters and other legal content to customer folders so that the team is able to file, access, manage and collaborate around this content while remaining compliant.

HP® WorkSite® is used to store legal documents and other content and to support collaborative working in a compliant way. Mourant Ozannes had previously used HP FileSite® to facilitate filing email while sharing and accessing content from HP Worksite via Outlook. However this was negatively impacting the performance of Outlook which resulted in users being unable to perform crucial tasks. In particular the filing of email content to a large number of folders was extremely slow and cumbersome and there was no effective solution capability for users when working offline.

After looking at various alternatives Mourant Ozannes selected Repstor affinity and assist to replace HP FileSite, enabling email and other content to be quickly and easily filed into HP WorkSite. Repstor affinity was selected based on its ease of use, and true native integration with Microsoft Outlook and HP WorkSite. Functionality highlighted during the Proof of Concept included easy email filing and matter management, high performance and stability, support for search, ease of enterprise-wide deployment and offline working, with user feedback being excellent. Using Repstor affinity and assist, users could file email and other content quickly and easily into HP WorkSite. This could all be achieved without impacting Outlook’s performance.

Tony IMG_6961“Our existing remote office thin client model wasn’t performing to acceptable standards and we needed to make some radical changes to introduce improvement. We decided early on that we needed to move away from a thin client model yet try and retain the centralised Worksite document management system but this simply wasn’t possible until we became aware of Repstor’s products. Testing and piloting of the products has got the remote offices really excited because it has resolved many of the performance issues that they see. It has also provided a level of matter management, product integration, ease of use and performance that we could get nowhere else.  We are so impressed with the Repstor products, and their speed at turning around our feature suggestions, that there is every likelihood that we will roll them out to all remote locations throughout 2015/16,” Tony Le Lerre, Head of Information Services, Mourant Ozannes.

Mourant Ozannes wanted to provide their users with an effective and easily adopted Outlook application, ensuring email and matter filing into its HP WorkSite ECM system became quick and easy. This resulted in users sharing and accessing accurate, up-to-date information, hence improving team collaboration and productivity while meeting compliance needs.

Repstor Announces CRM Link – the Dynamics CRM and ECM connector for Office 365®

Repstor announces the launch of its newest addition to the Repstor suite of products, Repstor CRM Link, at AIIM Forum UK.

AIIM Forum UK, London, 24 June 2015

At AIIM Forum UK, Repstor today announced the launch of its newest addition to the Repstor suite of products, Repstor CRM Link, the Dynamics CRM and ECM connector for Microsoft Office 365®.

Repstor CRM Link* provides users with a secure and fast link to Dynamics CRM and SharePoint (or other ECM Systems) from within Microsoft Outlook.

CRM Link enables users to associate emails quickly and easily with Dynamics CRM records or entities from Microsoft Outlook without ever leaving the Outlook interface. Repstor CRM Link helps users manage customer information and correspondence using Dynamics CRM from Microsoft Outlook without affecting the performance of Outlook.

Keeping track of client or customer related tasks and content such as emails, documents, marketing or sales activities and external correspondence can be time consuming and something that is often left until a later date, or indeed overlooked. This affects the ability of the organization and team members to access an accurate and up to date client profile at any time and can result in users missing critical details related to a client. Repstor CRM Link helps address these issues by providing a client management tool that is integrated into Outlook and accessible from the Outlook interface, the place users prefer to work.

By using Repstor affinity and custodian with CRM Link users are able to associate CRM records or entities with SharePoint Sites and Libraries (and other ECM information). SharePoint Sites and Libraries can be automatically provisioned based on the creation of CRM Records. Organizational information is shared between the user’s Outlook, Dynamics CRM and ECM systems cutting down on the need for users to manually update each system individually.

CTO, Repstor“CRM Link provides users with an easy-to-use client management tool that they can access directly from Microsoft Outlook. Users can update information on clients in Dynamics CRM and SharePoint or other ECM repositories easily without ever leaving the familiar Microsoft Outlook interface. This saves time for the user and avoids the need to update separate systems manually. Users are encouraged to keep all client information up to date. With accurate information available easily, the productivity of all team members increases,” said Fergus Wilson, CTO, Repstor.

Repstor CRM Link provides the following benefits:

  • Outlook integrated Client exploiting Repstor affinity
  • Surface CRM related documents in Outlook
  • Efficient Outlook integration – no slowdown to Outlook
  • Utilises Repstor Provisioning for Flexible Provisioning of SharePoint to support CRM Objects
  • CRM on-line or on-premise

Your organization can now leverage your CRM and ECM system to easily and accurately manage client information and other key content while enabling users to increase their productivity by working within the familiar Microsoft Outlook Client.
