Archiving with ecoDMS products has no limits. The virtual ecoDMS PDF/A printer can even print files from other printing applications to the archive. Examples for this are inventory management systems, CRM systems, ERP systems and many more.

A particular highlight in document archiving is the ecoDMS template designer. It can be used to automatically classify and archive documents without user intervention. The designer helps users create any kind of classification template. Document assignment can be based on keywords, RegEx commands and the layout.

Retrieving the archived documents with ecoDMS is also child’s play. All readable information, including file metadata, is automatically full-text indexed in the background. This makes searching for documents as easy as googling. Users can search for any search term as well as for the stored classification attributes. Classifications, for example, are folder, document type, date, note, status and much more.

ecoDMS can be configured to suit the needs of any user group. Individual folder structures, document types, user groups and access permissions can be defined in the Settings dialogue box

Moreover, ecoDMS offers a server component for NAS devices from QNAP and Synology via Docker image and as creative playground under Raspbian for the Raspberry Pi. ecoDMS is also available as App for Android and iOS.

The 69 Euro licence price includes all ecoDMS Archive components. A licence is valid for an unlimited period and independent of the number of documents.
