Laserfiche 8 Receives DoD 5015.2 Certification
October 23rd, 2007 Comment on this article
We’re pleased to announce that Laserfiche 8 has received DoD 5015.2 certification. Because it involves such rigorous testing, 5015.2 certification serves as the de facto standard for records management applications, according to Laserfiche Software Release Manager Justin Pava.
The certification process included four days of testing by a staff member from the DoD’s Joint Interoperability Test Command. Pava explains that the testing process involved tasks that are not only part of records management but of document management in general, such as importing documents, working with metadata, and using the Audit Trail™ module. The tester also worked with some of the new functionality in Laserfiche 8, such as the new template field types.
“The testing process went very smoothly—the tester did not have any trouble figuring out how to use Laserfiche, and she asked very few questions,” Pava says. “In fact, she mentioned that this was one of the smoothest certifications she’s done—and she’s been performing these certification tests for more than ten years.
“The fact that Laserfiche meets the DoD’s standards for records storage, retention and destruction shows that Laserfiche offers a well-designed system that will help records managers in all industries do their jobs more effectively,” he continues. “Just as important, the certification marks an important milestone in the development of Laserfiche 8, because it shows that Laserfiche 8 is as intuitive and easy-to-use as earlier versions of the software, and can also stand up to rigorous testing.”
