Oris4 Integrates with Box to Simplify File Migration and Discoverability

Palo Alto, Calif. — June 30, 2014 — Oris4 today announced a new integration with Box. The integration makes it easier for businesses to search for content across various software applications and provides the option of migrating it to a centralized cloud-based platform like Box.

When files are stored on numerous applications, such as network drives, email or legacy software, users often lack a secure and simple way to find what they are looking for from any device. According to an IDC report, information workers waste a significant amount of time each week dealing with a variety of challenges related to working with documents. This wasted amounts to a loss of 21.3% of the organizational total productivity. For organizations with 1000 employees, this time wasted would equal hiring an additional 213 workers.  Many organizations try to solve this challenge by building expensive interfaces between systems that are expensive and difficult to maintain. Instead, the Oris4 and Box integration greatly improves the discoverability of content with an easy point and click search method that gives a centralized view of an organization’s files, while also providing customers with an affordable way to either synchronize or migrate their content to the cloud.

“The biggest organizational expense firms are trying to grapple with is the time wasted searching numerous information repositories” according to Reza Kazemipour, CEO of Oris4. “People just don’t know where it is or how to find it. Box is a powerful platform for content management and collaboration in the cloud, and their customers are challenged with migrating all of their most important files from disparate, legacy solutions. We make finding all of this easy but clients were asking us if certain content can simply be moved directly into Box making it the ultimate online repository.”

The partnership between Box and Oris4 does just that providing a simple UI making things findable and by offering enterprise the ability to sync or migrate content from a current source into Box.com.
