Micro Focus Content Manager (formerly HP Content Manager, HP Records Manager, HP TRIM) is an electronic document and records management system (EDRMS) marketed by Micro Focus.

History

The software was formerly owned by HP Software Division and based on technology from Hewlett-Packard's 2008 acquisition of TOWER Software.[1]

In August 2013, HP announced that HP TRIM would be integrated into a unified platform called HP Records Manager 8.0.

In June 2016, HP Records Manager 8.0 was released as HP Content Manager 9.[2] HP Content Manager is built on the code base of HP TRIM and includes capabilities from the Autonomy Records Manager and Autonomy Meridio.[3] HP acquired Autonomy Corporation in 2011.[4]

Hewlett Packard Enterprise sold its software division to Micro Focus of the UK in September 2016.[5][6] Content Manager is now a part of Micro Focus since the transaction was closed in September 2017.[6]

HP TRIM Product Family

HP Records Manager is based on the code base of HP TRIM.

HP TRIM Base Package

In February 2010, HP released TRIM Version 7.[9] HP described this release as adding the ability to "provide transparent, policy based records management and archiving for Microsoft SharePoint environments on a single platform".[10] (This was replaced by Enterprise Software.[11]) This was in addition to the product's capabilities of managing electronic records and physical records in one system and in the same way regardless of their type, format or source.

HP TRIM was licensed as a base system with additional optional modules. The base package functionality was delivered through either a rich client, web client or with the HP TRIM for SharePoint module. Users could access HP TRIM functionality via Microsoft SharePoint. The HP TRIM for SharePoint modules included one for archiving and one for records management.

HP TRIM base package modules included the HP TRIM Web Client, a browser interface that complies with US 508 Accessibility Guidelines and is verified to US DoD 5015.2 V3 baseline, certified, Privacy and FOI records, meaning the software meets mandatory functional requirements for use in the United States federal government.[12]

Since 7.2 The Document Content Index was implemented using Autonomy IDOL engine for text indexing.

Other base modules included:

  • Content Indexing
  • WebDrawer for read-only access from the Internet
  • Document Caching
  • Transmittal/Communications for compiling a mail registry
  • Annotate/Redaction allows TIFF images to be annotated with an ability to redact or blank out sensitive information.

The Guest Gateway module allowed for a "Guest User" account with security and access restrictions and logs of all guest-user actions. Kofax Xtension permitted images to be captured into HP TRIM directly from the Kofax Ascent Capture high-end scanning software.[13] The LabelLink Xtension integrates with ColorBar Gold for printing of special color-coded file labels[14] The Directory Synchronization model mapped HP TRIM users from any LDAP directory (such as Novell eDirectory).

Optional modules

In addition to the base TRIM package, HP offered a number of optional modules. They included:

  • The HP TRIM Rendering module provided a fully automated process for storing both an original document and its renditions to a record
  • The HP TRIM Web Content Management module managed website content and structure using a web browser
  • The HP TRIM Space Management module defined a storage hierarchy model to organize content

(VERS, a special digital records format, records and preserves content regardless of the system that created it, such that content can be read and understood in the future. HP TRIM software is compliant with all specifications of the VERS standard.[15])
