DOCUWAREDocument Management
DocuWare is a comprehensive, complete solution for securely archiving business documents of all types. This electronic document management system stores documents in various file formats and makes them accessible on demand. It offers flexible deployment options to fit unique organizational needs. This system allows companies to Automate Workflow, streamline Invoice Processing, retrieve documents, and promote more efficient business processes. Regardless of the format and source, this document management software (DMS) automates business processes and workflows by managing and linking documents electronically.1
DocuWare is a DMS software solution that is available as an on-premise or cloud-based software program. Both file management software programs can tag data, archive it for storage, and provide easy document retrieval. If you cannot find a document, it is the same as not having it! File management systems employ document control software to organize data for easy finding and retrieval. With a few keyboard strokes, the secure system locates the digital file and displays it on a computer screen. The user can use, edit, or delete data as needed. As a DMS company, Les Olson IT's document management team of experts can help your business implement, configure, and secure a DMS Solution to fit your needs.
