AOS 7 supports Drive, Teams, SharePoint for centralized archive
With the release of AOS 7, ARTEC IT Solutions enhances its Live Archive EMA by integrating Google Drive, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint Online/OneDrive, and SharePoint On-Premises. This update enables organizations to archive not only emails and traditional documents but also to centrally store collaborative content. EMA now captures chat histories, attachments, and edited messages in a tamper-proof, audit-ready format. This ensures unified data retention, improved compliance, and optimized, seamless management workflows.
EMA automatically converts Google Docs, Sheets, Slides to formats
EMA automatically converts Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides into universally recognized formats such as PDF or Microsoft Office file types when archiving content. This guarantees that documents preserve their layout and integrity across platforms and viewing applications. By standardizing file formats, the system ensures long-term accessibility and seamless cross-device compatibility. Users can access files on desktops, laptops, tablets, or smartphones without requiring specific office suites or worrying about format obsolescence.
AOS 7 Introduces Flexible Automated Deletion Policies For EMA
EMA’s policy engine in AOS 7 introduces a framework for automated deletion processes. Administrators can define retention and deletion policies using mailbox rules, document attributes, keywords or filter combinations. This flexibility ensures reliable enforcement of timeframes mandated by GDPR, the German Commercial Code or internal compliance mandates. By automating lifecycle management across data types and sources, the system minimizes manual intervention and enforces legal, regulatory and organizational retention schedules consistently.
AOS 7 Implements OAuth2 Enabling Enhanced Single Sign-On Capabilities
With OAuth2 support built into AOS 7, organizations gain streamlined Single Sign-On capabilities and seamless integration with cloud-based identity providers. Administrators can leverage centralized authentication flows to manage user access, eliminating manual credential distribution and reducing administrative overhead. By delegating authentication to secure identity platforms, AOS 7 enhances overall system security through token-based workflows, minimizing password exposure, enforcing security policies, and delivering robust, scalable access management across environments.
Revamped EMA interface offers clear design and integrated tooltips
The redesigned EMA interface presents a refined, modern aesthetic with clear typography and intuitive layout. Interactive tooltips activate on hover or focus, providing concise explanations for settings, filters, and menus. Configurable panels display grouped options and live previews, enhancing user awareness and decision making. Streamlined menu hierarchies and search shortcuts enable rapid retrieval of functions without exiting the interface. The update reduces cognitive load, accelerates workflows, and improves overall efficiency.
AOS 7 transforms the EMA live archive into a unified hub for collaborative information management, integrating Google Drive, Microsoft Teams and SharePoint. Its rule-based retention and deletion policies ensure compliance and data governance. Organizations gain OAuth2 single sign-on support with identity provider compatibility, streamlining security and access management. A redesigned interface with contextual tooltips improves usability, and the complimentary upgrade equips businesses for demands of present and future digital workflows.
