Oracle UCM 10g R3 Wins Coveted InfoWorld Technology of the Year Award

Oracle Universal Content Management 10g R3 (UCM 10g R3) has won InfoWorld's coveted Technology of the Year Award, reserved for what InfoWorld calls "the most capable, most polished, most groundbreaking, and most valuable products on the IT landscape."

"Oracle Universal Content Management is a unified solution for securely managing documents, images, and other digital assets, plus Web sites," says InfoWorld, adding that it "scores high with Microsoft integration, comprehensive search, and new Ajax tool for organizing Web sites."

During its review of Oracle UCM 10g R3, InfoWorld identified a host of features that it found particularly impressive:

  • Advanced query capabilities without writing complex Boolean logic
  • Increased integration with Oracle's other products
  • "Hot-pluggability" via Oracle Fusion Middleware
  • Ability to work with content from within Microsoft SharePoint
  • New Microsoft Outlook integration
  • Smother operation with Windows Explorer
  • Automated WSDL generator for easier integration via Web services
  • Leaner personal portals with context-specific menus

InfoWorld "Hammers Away" at UCM 10g R3
InfoWorld reviewer Mike Heck wrote that he "hammered away" at UCM 10g R3, and liked what he found.

"Contributing content to the repository required no extra steps as I dragged and dropped Microsoft Word and other document types from my desktop to a UCM folder that appeared within Windows Explorer," wrote Heck. "Oracle automatically applied metadata, while adding options to pop-up menus for document management functions such as Check Out."

"Similarly, Oracle-managed folders within Microsoft Outlook let me submit e-mails and attachments as records," added Heck. "I then managed this content directly from Outlook (such as searching and taking it offline for editing)."

"Better usability, integration and filing (more than 400 file formats are automatically converted using Web services) make UCM an excellent offering," Heck concluded.
