My Documentum for Desktop
Transparent access to the Documentum repository through Windows Explorer

EMC My Documentum for Desktop (formerly File Share Services or FSS), part of the EMC My Documentum Suite, allows organizations to access the EMC Documentum repository with a lightweight client from both Windows and Macintosh environments.

EMC My Documentum for Desktop is essentially an extension to the desktop that exposes a lightweight set of content management capabilities, allowing content to be opened and saved directly to the repository through a certified set of applications/authoring tools. It supports: drag-and-drop access; double-clicking on content and launching it directly into the native application that created it; versioning; locking; caching and content commit capabilities (automatic, manual, or scheduled); and metadata access directly from a user's desktop. It has also been specifically certified for Microsoft Office products (Word, Excel, and PowerPoint).
