Achieve Greater Efficiency with an ECM Solution

As more employees work remotely or work from home, businesses need solutions that can enable workers to remain productive and efficient. Providing access to relevant data and documents while employees are outside the office is essential.

The Challenge of Remote Work

An enterprise content management system must solve several critical challenges that are common for a remote knowledge workforce.

Efficient Access to Documents

Even when in the office, workers may spend up to 30% of their day searching for the right information1. The amount of time spent trying to access information can be even greater for a remote workforce.

A Single Version of the Truth

While version control is difficult in any situation, it’s an even greater challenge when employees are outside the office. When documents are emailed back and forth, workers have difficulty determining which is the latest and most up-to-date version of a given document.

An Exceptional Customer Experience

When workers can’t access documents or don’t have a single version of the truth, it can cause misunderstandings about the status of customer projects, inevitably causing the customer experience to suffer.

Document Security

When employees don’t have the tools they need to access documents efficiently, they often resort to personal filesharing services and other forms of shadow IT. An ECM solution must make it easy for workers to securely access sensitive documents and data.

Mobile Access

Because security on mobile devices is a serious issue, many companies restrict mobile access to certain documents. Yet the inability to access documents while outside the office or on the road can be a significant drain on productivity.

With M-Files, there's always a single authoritative version of every document. Employees access it through a shareable link, ensuring consistent collaboration both inside and outside the organization.

Enterprise-Grade Security Measures

M-Files protects your documents with strong encryption and dynamic, role-based permissions. This ensures only authorized users can view or modify each document.

Access and Edit Documents on Mobile Devices

What You Can Do With M-Files

Find Documents Fast

Flexible architecture enables real-time secure information sharing.

Automate Workflows

M-Files’ ECM solution automatically guides documents through workflows with greater efficiency and precision. Metadata guides the document through various workflow stages and is automatically updated as the document moves from being drafted to reviewed, commented upon, and finally approved and signed. M-Files can also function as BPM software, helping to optimize document-related business processes.

Break Down Data Silos

Most companies have an average of four content management or ECM systems2, making it hard to know where to find information fast. M-Files connects to documents no matter where they reside to provide a single view of all content, effectively breaking down data silos and providing a 360° view of information.

Streamline Collaboration

Multiple users can access, edit and annotate documents simultaneously. Workers can share documents easily by simply providing a link, and users may access files with a desktop, web or mobile client.

Keeping Your Data Secure

M-Files' ECM tools provide more control over documents and processes to keep sensitive information secure, even when employees are working remotely.
