What is Hyland Alfresco?

Hyland Alfresco is an open, cloud-native content services platform for managing documents, records, and business processes at scale. It combines document management with information governance, automating record retention and disposition to reduce compliance risk, alongside process automation tools for content-centric workflows. Built on open standards and APIs, it integrates with Microsoft 365 and Google Docs and can be customized for specific industry needs.

Alfresco is available as a free, open-source Community Edition for self-hosted deployments, or as an Enterprise Edition sold through named-user annual subscriptions with custom pricing that Hyland does not publish online. A separate cloud-based Document Transformation Engine is billed per transaction. Organizations can try the platform through a free trial or by downloading the Community Edition before committing to a paid license.
