The next generation of OpenText’s ApplicationXtender platform, named 20.3 for the year and quarter of its release date, will bring new cloud capabilities and intelligent automation. It will also include improved integrations for streamlining document management across a wide array of departments and capabilities.
This release will follow closely on the heels of OpenText’s release of Intelligent Capture 20.2, which also includes an array of new and innovative features.
ApplicationXtender, more commonly known as “AX,” is a mid-market electronic content management (ECM) platform that provides line-of-business and embedded ECM solutions. It has greatly benefited companies in all industries. AX 20.3 will only bring more advantages. It will offer a host of new integrations and improved tools for digital collaboration.
What is ApplicationXtender?
AX acts as an extension of your back-end core system, creating streamlined workflow automation and third-party integrations. These integrations include accounting software, electronic medical and health record software (EMR/EHR), mortgage automation solutions like loan origination systems, and more.
AX incorporates five modules, allowing you to:
- Scan and capture documents, including emails and attachments
- Integrate with third-party platforms like Microsoft 365 and Azure
- Search documents with full-text capabilities
- Capture and import reports
- Secure documents with public access licenses
With AX’s robust application and document access control tools, captured data is secure within the platform.
The Evolution of ApplicationXtender
Through the years, OpenText has made several improvements to this document management software application. The 20.3 release will build on last year’s updates, which focused on certifications, viewer enhancement, directory services and Oracle Outside In Technology for improved content rendering. This generation’s enhancements will improve performance and speed while adding tools for even greater efficiency.
