Apsiva's single source content
management software enables all your list managers, and graphics
artists to work from a single database, thus enabling them
to share the same content for authoring and publishing.
This approach of accessing the same database minimizes multiple
versions of information, improves scalability of your business
process and reduces the turnaround time from authoring to
publishing. Apsiva's content database has the following benefits:
Unlimited Fields: With Apsiva,
there is no limit on the number of fields that can be managed
at the list entry level or at a group/organization level.
The ability of defining as many fields as necessary, greatly
enhances the ability to expand the use of the database. Fields
can also be up to several pages long. Fields can also be made
category specific so certain categories of content can have
its own content.
Content Validation:
Apsiva takes content validity seriously.
Fields can be defined in a way that enforces validation rules
on your content. For example, Websites, URLs, Telephone numbers
and E-Mail addresses are fully validated when information
is entered. This detailed validation ensures that only accurate
information resides in the system, hence increasing the reliability
of content in the repository. When an entry correction is
made it is reliably communicated across to all other list
managers and the output. When accurate content is used as
the source of a list, automatically the published documents
result in higher accuracy and fewer proofing cycles.
Import and Export: With Import
and Export capabilities you can easily work with your content
in the database or outside. You can use the system in a minimalistic
fashion or to its full potential by retaining control. You
can freely import thousands of list entries with a wizard
based import mechansim. And, you can as easily export list
entries. When content is imported into Apsiva, the same validation
rules are applied as if content is directly entered in. Apsiva
also runs validation reports and duplicate checks to cross
check content so duplicates are either blocked or accounted
for.
Digital Asset Management:
Many list entries have associated rich content such as images,
videos, PDFs or attachments. Apsiva not only organizes your
list entries, but it also organizes your valuable digital
assets. The most valuable benefit of Apsiva Digital Asset
Management is to link the digital assets to your list entries
in a seamless way so once you can access the list entry and
all associated digital assets easily. It eliminates the need
of searching for digital assets and makes version management
a snap.
Categorization: When managing
list entries, it is easier to manage them in groups or categories.
Apsiva makes content more manageable by allowing you to define,
drop, merge or delete list categories. The list categories
can be either internal to an organization or external.
Keyword Search & Advanced
Search: With Apsiva you can search the list database on
a variety of criteria such as keywords, entry numbers or categories.
Statuses: Not all entries
in a list are ready for publishing from the moment an entry
is discovered. Apsiva supports list entry statuses so you
can define the status of an entry. The defaults are "Draft",
"Active", "Discontinued" or "Replaced".
This list entry level status also allows you to control the
access of a list entry.
Workflow: Apsiva's built in
workflow ensures a smooth notification process so as content
changes
are made, other members on your team can be aware of changes
and take action steps based on the change.
Change History : As changes
are made to content, Apsiva captures the change history. Every
single change is logged in the system along with before and
after information.
API: Apsiva supports web services
and a full API so you can extend upon the capabilities that
Apsiva supports. The API is well documented for your technology
team to understand the concepts of Apsiva.
Custom Development: The above
listed benefits an features of Apsiva are just the beginning.
There are dozens of other features Apsiva supports right outside
the box. However, there are situations where we can add a
feature to our system to fully meet your project requirements.
