Knowledgemill

Provider of smart, cloud-based email management software.

Knowledgemill has developed a cloud-based email management software platform that could revolutionise the way businesses and individuals manage their emails. Founded by content management experts Hisham Anis, James Allchin and Marcus Lambert in 2009, the company addresses the problem of filing, archiving and document management of email and attachments

Intelligently assigning a 'context' to each email, Knowledgemill enables automated filing of emails, relating to specific work streams and projects, and collaborative working, allowing all relevant people to view the email. Emails and related documents are only stored once which saves significant email infrastructure and storage costs. Current customers have indicated time savings in the region of 45 minutes per user per day and over 50% savings in infrastructure and email back-up time.

Knowledgemill's clients include legal and other professional services firms, construction and leisure companies. Their business partners include EMC, Oracle, Microsoft, Fujitsu and Union Solutions.
