Microsoft Teams has become a primary place where employees collaborate, share information, and make decisions. Yet for many organizations, business-critical documents, records, and other content remain stored in enterprise content management systems. This creates a disconnect between where employees work and where governed content is managed, requiring users to move between applications to find, manage, and share information. That added friction can slow productivity, contribute to duplicate content, and increase the risk of information being stored outside established governance processes.
Hyland for Microsoft Teams helps bridge this gap by bringing Hyland-managed content directly into the Teams experience. Users can search for, view, manage, share, and capture content without leaving their primary collaboration workspace. At the same time, authoritative content remains within supported Hyland repositories, allowing organizations to maintain established security, compliance, governance, and records management practices.
By connecting collaboration and content management, the integration can simplify how employees interact with the information they need. Rather than continually switching between systems, users can access governed content within the flow of work in Teams, creating a more connected experience while helping organizations maintain control over important business information.
Key capabilities include:
• Search Hyland content directly from Teams chats and channels.
• View and manage repository content within Teams.
• Share links to Hyland-managed content while maintaining repository governance.
• Import content from Teams into Hyland repositories.
• Relate content to Teams conversations and channels to improve discoverability.
These capabilities can help organizations reduce application switching, improve productivity, accelerate collaboration, and make content easier to find. They can also help address content sprawl by capturing important collaboration content within governed repositories and supporting organizational governance, compliance, and retention objectives.
Hyland for Microsoft Teams is especially relevant for organizations that rely on Teams as a primary collaboration environment and want to extend the value of their Hyland investments. Across use cases such as claims processing, legal document review, customer service, project management, and recruiting, bringing governed content closer to employees can help simplify everyday work and improve access to the information needed to make decisions and move processes forward.
Ultimately, Hyland for Microsoft Teams brings collaboration and governed content closer together. The initial release will support OnBase and Nuxeo repositories, with the integration designed to support additional Hyland repositories in the future. Organizations can work within a familiar Microsoft environment while maintaining the security, governance, and control associated with their Hyland content. By making governed content available closer to where work happens, organizations can create a more productive, connected, and efficient user experience.
