Why you need a Document Management System

A well-considered Document Management System (DMS) will give you more time to focus on the critical areas of your business as it makes storing, sharing and retrieving vital documents easier, along with added benefits such as increased security, collaboration and automated regulatory compliance.

What is a Document Management System?
A document management system (DMS) is a combination of a computer system and software that stores, manages and tracks electronic documents and electronic images of paper-based information captured using a document scanner.

It allows users to upload files in various formats and categorise them according to their needs.  It allows employees to access what they need from just about anywhere via a simple search.

Risks of not having a Document Management System
Organisations are at a higher risk of data loss, no audit trail of data and security breaches.  If customers feel their data isn’t safe, they are likely to feel uncomfortable using your services.

Productivity can also be affected as document workflows tend to involve several different departments.  A lack of efficiency across departments as staff are spending precious time searching and trying to retrieve important documents.
