Interessting session ,in which they explained that the knowledge work bear the burden of managing information manually. A lot of different sources keep the data a knowledge work needs to fulfil his job. Like shared folders, Sharpoint or traditional document systems.
The challenge is to free up the knowledge work to spent time of searching the right information. M-Files can help them to get out of this pain with automation of classification of information. Workflows with security implementation ensure the compliance.

Industry Solution Builder

With the Industry Solution Builder it is possible to create a solution by answering question. A new vault deployment can be started with choosing a pre-defined use-case and then answering a set of question. Features and application of a vault can be automatically installed by the Industry Solution Builder.

As a M-Files Partner, we have the possibility to develop our own questionnaires for Industry Solutions. We can therefore, develop according to the requirements of a specific use-case.

The Industry Solution Builder is available in the M-Files Cloud, and soon also for on-premisses deployments.

Generative AI and M-Files

Generative AI and M-Files provides the possibility to perform the inquire in the user context. This includes the information of the metadata with their permission. This ensures that only data for which the requester has the permission will be searched and passed back. An other advantage is, that the response is more accurate. As the search is performed in the defined context.

The second day ended with the Welcome Reception for Customers and Partners. Day three and four will be the combined session with Customers and Partners.
