Businesses’ create, transform and store huge numbers of digital documents: contracts, agreements, proposals, HR documents, marketing material, quality manuals, health and safety manuals, etc.

These documents are often saved randomly on laptops, servers, the cloud, and other storage devices. You may have files stored in the Cloud using apps like Dropbox or OneDrive, or on your desktop, in email attachments and other paper documents stored in boxes in the basement! So what happens when you can’t find a file you need for your next meeting that starts in the next 5 minutes?

Have you ever wasted precious time searching for a document on your computer, in the paper filing cabinet or in your email and attachments?
