Turn Legacy Content into Structured, Searchable Data

Microsoft 365 enables document storage at scale—but many organizations are left with large volumes of unstructured or poorly tagged content.

Metadata Enrich is a SharePoint metadata enrichment solution that works alongside Colligo Email Manager to retroactively apply, update, and enrich metadata across existing SharePoint files—bringing older content up to the same standard as newly managed records.

Fix at Scale

Why Metadata Breaks Down Over Time

As content grows, metadata often becomes:

  • Missing or incomplete
  • Inconsistent across libraries and teams
  • Outdated or incorrect
  • Difficult to fix manually at scale

This limits search, reduces usability, and creates challenges for compliance, governance, and downstream systems.

Without metadata, search is more difficult, usability decreases and compliance challenges increase. Illustration
