The challenges of traditional document management
- The search for the needle in the haystack: Does this sound familiar? You are urgently looking for a specific document, but you don’t know where to start. You search through folders on your computer, shared network drives and ask colleagues for help. In the end, you have lost valuable time and you still may not have found the document.
- Version control as a stumbling block: Different versions of the same document circulate within the company, leading to confusion and errors. Who has the latest version? What changes have been made? The lack of clear version control can lead to miscommunication and project delays.
- Approval processes that get stuck: Documents need to be approved by various stakeholders, but the process is slow and cumbersome. Emails are sent back and forth, documents are printed and signed, and approvals are not always processed in a timely manner. This can lead to bottlenecks and delays in important decision-making processes.
