I've just started at a new job. I've been assigned the role of systems intergrator, backup and BCP documentation manager. I've been asked to reorganize the IT infrastructure. I have never setup a ECM system before. What I am trying to accomplish is a Document management system for my server/application BCP documents and a collaboration section for employees to record their projects and status updates. I had a sharepoint system at my old job that would accomplish this and would like to implement something for communication and workflow to perform at its best at my new job.
Can someone help?!

Since you have worked with Sharepoint before, you understand many of the basics of document management, etc. Sharepoint is more of a finished product, while Alfresco is more of a kit with some basic capabilities. You will need to do quite a bit of reading, followed by doing, in order to understand what Alfresco might be capable of. I strongly recommend reading through one or more of the books on Alfresco (3.0 or later), as the authors will be able to tell you things you need to hear.
My suggestions:
Take it slow. Content management systems can crash and burn if the technology and the audience aren't ready for each other.
Get pilot projects going, the simpler the better, and continually solicit feedback from those projects.
Establish a governance structure in the organization. Explain that the technology can only help to enforce business rules, but it cannot write them nor audit them.

Hello!
I am researching for a document management solution for the company I work for. The first things that are important is tracking document versions, period of validity and collaboration on new versions. I still haven't tried Alfresco, but I am very interested. I am not a programmer, more of an advanced user. Can someone please steer me into the right direction for installation/setup/configuration. I need document management for my company's intranet. The company is a financial institution with 500+ employees. If Initial setup goes well (community version), then we could look into the enterprise solution.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
