Customer Spotlight: Warren County Correctional
                      Center
 Challenge: Warren County Correctional Center realized it needed a
 document management system that would alleviate the hard-copy paper
 files accumulated for inmates as well as provide a central place for
 personnel to look up files. Also, the system needed to provide the
 appropriate level of access control so that files were available to authorized
 users and restricted to others.




 Solution: Alfresco Enterprise Content Management software surpassed all
 of the technical requirements, was more flexible and allowed for easy
 customization. The easy- of-use and flexibility of Alfresco’s technology have
 lead to:
 •  Reduced volume of paper storage by 90 percent; •Eliminated the
    duplication of documents in different folders; • Established greater access
    controls over inmate documentation; •Facilitated instantaneous
    document retrieval; and, •Increased efficiency of the inmate booking
    process.
Customer Spotlight: The Department of Housing
and Urban Development

Challenge: The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
needed software that could help them with large imaging, document
management and long-term records management requirements.




Solution: Alfresco was the right fit in the long-term because of cost,
platform, integration, performance, ease of use and continued innovation.
By leveraging the Alfresco platform, HUD increases future productivity and
range of capabilities.
Customer Spotlight: The City and County of
Denver

Challenge: Denver needed to implement one centralized document
management system that could serve as a platform for all its document and
content applications.




Solution: Denver’s Technology Service team had experience using a
number of different proprietary ECM systems and researched the costs
associated with each. After doing a cost analysis, they selected Alfresco
Enterprise Content Management as the content platform for the city.
Alfresco had the best overall return on investment (ROI), as well as the key
features required from both the users and the Technology Services team to
help the city meet its growing demand for document management.
Alfresco fit with the Denver’s long term goals of leveraging the cost benefit
of open source software. Alfresco has the most scalable content repository
that runs on commodity hardware and software. This allows Denver to
support more users with less hardware, and easily scale for future demand
 20
while maintaining high performance.
