Overall Satisfaction with M‑Files
We use M-Files in multiple use cases from a base document management solution to dedicated build workflow and business automatization in different business processes. M-Files is for us a strategic DevOps platform in addition to its normal DMS capabilities.
- Free metadata is the key
- Capability to integrate to all sorts of solutions
- Agility in implementation
- User experience and user interface - however, now with the web interface we are on the right track

- ERP
- eSigning
- Client portals
- eMail
- external client / contact information service
Connection to our ERP brings us vital metadata. eSigning gives us multiple benefits in our contract management. When integrating M-Files into our multiple client portal solutions we may store client files in one platform, however provide it as multiple views back to clients. eMail is clear automated archiving based on "ticket number" i.e. by engagement of the specified job. We use M-Files also in our KYC/AML process integrating this with our external client/contact information database we may offer automated updates like in Ultimate Beneficial Owners. To name a few use cases.
Free metadata - the capability to build own solutions - way ahead of any competitive products.
