The M-Files platform received high marks for innovative permissions and workflow as well as task management functions, integrations, and offline access. Additionally, Business.com acknowledged M-Files for key capabilities such as version control, which it cited as “critical to safeguarding and tracking editable documents within a document management system.”
Furthermore, Business.com noted, “For collaboration purposes, M-Files has a check-in and checkout function that allows users to alert others when they are actively editing a document. This prevents users from simultaneously working on the same document and overwriting one another’s work, which could lead to ‘version creep,’ or the loss of information through confusion.”
“We are pleased that Business.com has praised our visionary approach to information management, which leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to improve how businesses secure, process and manage data and content,” said Maria Carballosa, chief marketing officer, M-Files. “M-Files provides a single source of information across existing systems and content repositories, applying powerful metadata that help businesses classify, organize and process information quickly and efficiently.”

In their review, Business.com also noted the significance of M-Files Ground Link, a unique solution unveiled in November 2019 that integrates M-Files with on-premises repositories and systems like network folders and SharePoint Server. This allows for documents stored in SharePoint to be used in conjunction with Salesforce to improve customer relationship management and further centralize document management processes.
