It has been a while since I last provided a product version update even though we have seen 16.1, 16.1.1 and now 16.2 so it is about time.
Minor releases are generally about incrementally building on the last major release, but that does not mean that the new features are minor in capability or scope and there are some big ones since my last update.
It goes without saying that a lot of us are working from home these days. For many, you are working a lot more as your business sees a shift to an economy where personal safety, cleanliness, eating at home, etc. have taken control. It may not be as easy or you may not have as much time to monitor your operations from your normal document management system reports.
Step 1 – Buy FileHold Cloud or upgrade your on-premise system to FileHold Cloud.
Step 2 – Log in from home; you’re done!
Okay, that seemed a bit too easy, but what if you do not want to use FileHold Cloud for some reason and you will stick with your self-hosted solution?
The good news is that the FileHold DMS has been internet enabled from day one, fifteen years ago. Whether you prefer the browser or desktop client or you want to use it from your phone, we have always been internet ready.
The push to move away from paper and into a digital workspace has never been more vital than now, as organizations need to work remotely for the safety of their teams without disrupting their day-to-day operations. FileHold has been a leader in helping these companies with a centralized, organized repository to replace paper documents with easy-to-use software that can control, locate, and secure documents. FileHold recently announced its newest offering, FileHold Cloud, which offers document management hosted in the Azure environment.
With the emergence of the COVID-19 virus working from home is not only convenient but essential to keeping your business functioning with minimal disruption. In the previous blog post, "Working from Home with FileHold", we outlined the many options that FileHold provides to our customers for working from home such as Desktop Application (FDA) , Web Client Access and Mobile Access
There are many reasons why an organization would want to deploy a document management system (DMS) like FileHold. Some companies buy a DMS for compliance and security; others are looking for powerful search capabilities in a standardized and structured repository; still others need version control, retention/disposition, review and approvals, physical storage constraints, etc.
Clutter is the bane of every office. Projects create paperwork or some other physical collateral that invades empty spaces and takes over desks. Discipline can help: strict filing practices can minimize the mess, but the piles still grow and grow and new tasks and initiatives are added on. The move to a digital repository like FileHold can help remove the paper and store it in an organized repository to replace physical filing cabinets and in-trays – but what about yesterday’s documents?
Part of a series designed to help utilize the many features of FileHold more effectively.
FileHold is greedy. It keeps everything (maybe it is a hoarder). Whether it is the log of everything that happens to a document or the contents of the document itself, FileHold remembers. Since FileHold allows you to store any type of file, it makes no assumptions about the best way to know one version from the next; it keeps both complete files.
