Users want it to be easy and convenient to work, file, search, collaborate on documents, and process information. If this isn’t the case, they tend to create this convenience themselves, doing so with file shares or OneDrive, within their own structures, or through ad hoc creation and use of Teams. This results in data duplication, confusion, compliance and security risks, and data integrity issues. That's where iWorkplace apps and developed frameworks are a huge game changer.

iWorkplace is a set of frameworks and tools available through Professional Advantage designed to help you achieve your data protection and compliance requirements at scale in an easier, more cost-effective, and user-friendly way.

It runs on Microsoft 365 and uses productivity tools your users already know and love, such as SharePoint and Teams, allowing you to balance effective and practical information management with productivity and compliance!

What sets iWorkplace apart?

iWorkplace unifies information management, protection, and collaboration in one solution.

  • Improve user experience and productivity with only one place to go to manage information, collaborate on documents, and file things for compliance.
  • Utilise familiar Microsoft 365 tools that your users already use and love, such as SharePoint and Teams, to increase user adoption.
  • Make compliance easy for users with auto-tagging of documents when filed.
  • Allow coordinators to update case files such as personnel files, jobs, assets, meetings—anything that’s repeatable—without needing admin rights.
  • Conveniently and securely access information from anywhere, on any device.

iWorkplace makes meeting your data governance and compliance needs much easier.

  • Set up retention and disposal rules that span document libraries.
  • Use native Microsoft 365 retention labels to protect files from day one and dispose of them on a schedule. Automate this at scale, even with tricky use cases that are hard to administer out of the box with Microsoft 365 E3 or E5.
  • Automatically apply sensitivity and retention labels to protect current and important information and systematically dispose of the rest.
  • Auto-compliance achieved on filing with built-in compliance reporting. Provide instant access to previous audits and reports with automated workflows.
  • Provide information managers with convenient views of files that have been deleted recently in workspaces as well as any OneDrive account.
  • In-built versioning to see your document’s latest copy.
  • Provide structure and usability to control and manage content and collaboration at scale in Microsoft Teams.
  • Control excessive use of OneDrive and use OneDrive Manager to move files into the right workspaces in SharePoint.
