This supports content team ability to maximize content reuse and improve the relevance and success of content assets.

Access to a new level of metrics shows how content operations support content strategy success with awareness into whether you are hitting – or missing – your publishing objectives.

Previews can be tailored for different content types and applied consistently across their Microsoft Word and Web-based authoring tools.
• Internal Content Consumption Analytics – New single-pane-of-glass visibility into how both internal and external teams interact and engage with content helps visualize how content is performing across different audiences, enabling users to adjust content accordingly and optimize engagement for specific personas and use cases.
• Enhanced Conversion Capabilities from Microsoft Word to CCMS Components – Bolstered automated capabilities of converting Microsoft Word docs into componentized content improve content management efficiencies. Teams can easily search and access converted content components within the central CCMS repository thanks to the automatic creation and storage of content model collections, style maps and more.
