OpenText eDOCS and Kentico complement each other well in organizations that need controlled document management on the legal side and flexible digital content delivery on the client-facing side. eDOCS provides secure, matter-centric document control, while Kentico supports website content, campaigns, and personalized digital experiences. Integrating the two helps legal and marketing teams share approved content, reduce manual publishing effort, and maintain governance over sensitive materials.
Data flow: OpenText eDOCS to Kentico
Legal teams can store approved client-facing documents in eDOCS, such as policy updates, legal notices, engagement letters, or service guides. Once a document is finalized and approved, it is published to Kentico for display on secure client portals or public website pages. This ensures only version-controlled, authorized content is exposed externally and reduces the risk of publishing outdated legal information.
Data flow: OpenText eDOCS to Kentico
Law firms and corporate legal departments often create reusable knowledge assets from completed matters, such as case summaries, regulatory guidance, or precedent-based insights. These can be stored in eDOCS and then pushed into Kentico as knowledge articles, FAQ pages, or resource center content. This supports thought leadership publishing while keeping the source content governed and traceable in the document repository.

When website pages, campaign assets, or published legal notices are retired in Kentico, the final approved version can be archived in eDOCS for retention and audit purposes. This is especially useful for regulated communications, where organizations need a defensible record of what was published, when it was published, and who approved it. It also simplifies legal hold and records management processes.
Data flow: Bi-directional
Legal and compliance teams can draft or revise disclaimers, privacy notices, terms of use, and jurisdiction-specific statements in eDOCS. After review and approval, Kentico receives the updated content for website deployment. If Kentico content owners identify a required update, they can trigger a review request back to eDOCS. This creates a controlled workflow that keeps public-facing legal text current without relying on manual copy and paste.

Kentico can present links or embedded access points to documents stored in eDOCS, such as signed engagement documents, policy packs, legal forms, or matter-related reference materials. Access can be restricted based on user role, client identity, or matter permissions. This allows firms to provide a better digital experience while preserving the security and access controls managed in eDOCS.

Marketing teams using Kentico for campaigns can pull approved brochures, attorney bios, service descriptions, and compliance-reviewed collateral from eDOCS. This ensures that only vetted materials are used in landing pages, email campaigns, and downloadable content. The result is faster campaign execution with fewer compliance review cycles and less risk of using outdated or unapproved assets.
Data flow: Bi-directional
During client onboarding, Kentico can present a guided digital experience with instructions, checklists, and onboarding forms, while eDOCS stores the official documents such as signed agreements, identity verification records, and engagement letters. Status updates from Kentico can trigger document requests in eDOCS, and completed documents in eDOCS can update the client journey in Kentico. This improves onboarding speed and creates a more coordinated workflow across legal, operations, and client service teams.
These integration scenarios help organizations combine eDOCS governance and matter-centric control with Kentico?s content delivery and digital engagement capabilities, improving compliance, efficiency, and the client experience.
