     In most cases, yes. We have found that close to 100% of our clients have chosen to have customised workflows integrated into their M-Files solution. We work closely with our clients during the planning phase to identify opportunities for productivity gains using M-Files workflows. We also find that once M-Files has been deployed, many of our clients see the wide-ranging benefits of workflows and engage us to have additional workflows configured.

  • Why do I need AI in a document management system?

    AI assists knowledge workers achieve productivity gains. For example, M-Files Aino allows for rapidly locating information without needing to manually open and document and searching it. AI reads documents to help M-Files suggest relevant metadata (such as customer name, invoice amount, postal address), speeding up document filing considerably.

  • How do M-Files auto-populating templates work?

    We help you to configure auto-populating templates during the project planning process by identifying opportunities for template usage, and ensuring the relevant metadata fields have been correctly configured. Once metadata has been entered into M-Files, it is subsequently available for use in any auto-populating template. A popular use case is contract document creation. With M-Files auto-populating templates, you can define standard contract templates with placeholders for relevant information (e.g., party names, contract dates, payment terms), enabling rapid document creation.
