NetDocuments Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We switched to NetDocuments when they bought Worldox. We were highly satisfied with Worldox, but were told that support for Worldox would be ending in the near future. We currently use as our Document Management System.

If you’re looking for nothing more than an overpriced vault to store your files, then NetDocuments might fit the bill. But if you expect efficiency, transparency, and true document management, I strongly suggest looking elsewhere.

I currently pay nearly $30,000 a year — and that’s without NDMax or any AI features. One major reason for this staggering cost? In my experience, to make your documents searchable, you’re forced to purchase double the storage for OCR. Without OCR, in my opinion, the platform is essentially useless, since you can’t reliably find your files through search. Shockingly, in my case, this critical detail was never disclosed to me until after I signed the contract.

Performance is another major flaw. In my opinion, latency is painfully obvious — even in preview mode. In practice, this means you must download every document to your local machine just to review it. That not only slows everything down but, I feel, it undermines the very purpose of having a secure, cloud-based system in the first place.

Until NetDocuments addresses these fundamental issues of cost, transparency, and usability, my advice is simple: stay far away.

It helps us share files internally/externally from one system while adhering to governance and retention policies.

NetDocuments is being used across the entire organization. Using NetDocuments has helped us to free up space on network drives, as well as stop us from having to add so much more space to them. It is also much easier for people to access files than using network folders, so it has been very helpful thus far.

Well suited for companies looking to use cloud storage and get away for in office network drives, as well as companies looking to share documents with multiple users, no matter their location. Less appropriate for smaller companies that don't have large storage needs.

If you are small-to-midsized firm then NetDocuments is a no-brainer. There's just no way small-to-midsized firms will have the economies of scale to implement an in-house DMS that is appropriate for a law firm. NetDocuments meets any number of regulatory, client and liability carrier requirements applicable to law firms.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use NetDocuments to create a secure repository for our documents and to demo the product in use for potential clients. It is ideal for a multiple site environment with the need to collaborate securely with common document sets. It puts all types of documents in one place including all office generated documents, PDFs, pictures; even email is handled as just another document type. So no need to have a separate tool for managing email archives.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is ideal where security is your number one concern or where there is a need to share securely across different physical locations. Speed is less than ideal in certain usage scenarios. It is limited by the speed of the internet and it can be difficult to pull large quantities of documents when researching or answering discovery requests, although, that being said, it can be addressed by maintaining your own secure server to contain a mirror of your online documents. But then the security for a mirror falls back on the organization.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

NetDocuments is being used by the entire organization as a document management system and customer portal. NetDocuments keeps documents organized, provides access from anywhere and address all versioning issues.
