Document Locator has been instrumental in solving a variety of document management challenges for organizations. The software's simple interface and seamless integration with Windows OS make it easy for users to manage thousands of documents, ensuring that everyone in the company can access them easily. This has resulted in improved internal efficiency, increased productivity, and streamlined document control processes.

The software also provides users with the ability to set permissions and control access to confidential information, ensuring that only authorized users have access to sensitive data. Document Locator's integration with Microsoft Office and browsers enables remote access to documents from anywhere in the world, making it ideal for fieldwork under pressure situations. Another significant benefit of this product is its customization feature, which allows users to configure specific rights per user, providing a higher level of organization and making everything searchable.

Document Locator has been widely used in various departments such as Accounting, Marketing, HR, and more recently, the medical field where its versioning capability and external link publishing feature has been used in record retention and management of medical equipment from birth to recycle. Document Locator's customer service support has received high ratings with helpful representatives always available not only for technical issues but also for general queries. Ultimately, Document Locator has proved to be a cost-effective solution for nonprofit companies looking to go paperless while helping larger organizations reduce their cost of service by improving workflow automation and archiving.

User-Interface: The software is user-friendly and easy to use, with a straightforward interface that anyone can use. Several reviewers have praised the software's ease of use, making it an attractive option for remote employees who need access to documents.

Customization: Document Locator offers high levels of customization, allowing users to control their document management according to their needs. Many reviewers appreciate the software's ability to work with complicated hierarchies of supervision while remaining easy to administer.

Searchability: The searching capabilities of Document Locator are highly praised by users, making it easier to locate documents using identifiers such as invoice number, PO number or other relevant information. Users also appreciate the potential for searches not only in file names but within files themselves, along with tagging and categorizing features that standardize document structures.

Slow and Glitchy System: Some reviewers (10 out of 31) have reported that the software can be slow and glitchy, especially when accessing folders or running searches. This can lead to frustration and lost productivity, particularly for those working under tight deadlines.

Confusing User Interface: Several users (1 out of 31) have noted that the user interface is confusing, making it difficult to locate key commands or perform tasks efficiently. This can be a major impediment to workflow and may require additional training or support to overcome.

Poor Reporting Functionality: A number of reviewers (2 out of 31) have criticized the reporting functionality in Document Locator as lacking and not user-friendly. This makes it challenging for users to create reports on the fly and could impact their ability to make informed decisions based on data analysis.
