Alfresco One Day Introduction
The issues you may be facing
Alfresco, like most enterprise content management products, is an extensive, functionally rich toolbox. It can be configured to deliver a vast array of different content solutions.
- So how do you evaluate whether it is the right product for you?
- It is not like arranging a test drive in a car; you can download the software, but then what?
- Will it meet all of your requirements? If so, then how?
- Can you get an expert to show you, and your team, the software face to face?
- Can they answer all of your questions; provide you with feedback on how the system is likely to meet each of your functional requirements – point by point?
- Perhaps you have already downloaded the free trial software, but could do with some expert help in configuring it in your domain?
Introducing the Alfresco Introduction Day
Ixxus is the leading Alfresco system integration partner in the UK, and has a wealth of experience in helping hundreds of companies and organisations assess whether Alfresco is the right product for them.
As a result, we have developed the Alfresco Introduction Day where one of our senior Alfresco consultants will visit your premises, and will spend the day with you.
A typical introduction day can include a mixture of demonstration, interviews, discussion, advice and workshops. We build the day around what you want to get out of it.

Requirements Discussion
The point of an evaluation is to discover whether the product is likely to be a good fit for your organisation’s requirements. Bringing all of your stakeholders into a discussion with an experienced Alfresco consultant will allow you to understand what is possible, and more importantly what effort will be required to achieve the end result.
Technical advice
After installing an Enterprise Trial there are usually some questions on how to configure some of the many options available or there can be functions that aren’t quite working as expected. An experienced consultant will normally be able to get things going or point you in the right direction for where to look for the information you need.
The Benefits of the Alfresco Introduction Day
In the space of just one day you will be in a position to make an informed decision on whether Alfresco is potentially the right system for you, allowing you to either move forward with a full proof of concept, pilot, or initial implementation.
You will have a clear understanding as to what Alfresco can, and can not, do for you.
You will not have had to waste a lot of time and resource in getting to this point.
The Price
The fully inclusive cost of the day is £995 ex VAT, plus any required travel and accommodation expenses. (These will be confirmed with you before booking)
