The full-text indexing and search of PDF documents. The command line utilities allow bulk manipulation of documents; that is, if any reorganization is needed.

For one implementation, the full-text indexing of PDF documents and associated search were the most valuable features. It allowed the department to search with sufficient accuracy that there was no need to add metadata during the upload/content intake process. This greatly reduced the document preparation and scanning time.

DocuShare has a set of command line utilities that allow you to manipulate documents in batches. For example, it allows you to move all documents with a keyword in the title to a new folder. Due to these command line tools, the project didn't require API licensing nor did it require any additional support from the Xerox professional service; thus, it saved time and money.

Technical Lead For Document Management System at a tech services company with 51-200 employees

The most valuable feature for DocuShare is that it has a very user-friendly Windows client. You can easily deploy the client and map the DocuShare site to a drive. Saving on that drive automatically uploads your document to the DocuShare site.

Documents are easily exported and versioning can be done out of the box. The product is superb if you are just looking for a user-friendly Document Management System (DMS). File and folder security policies are easily implemented and can work directly with capture systems such as Kofax Capture or Kofax Express.

Workflows are easily deployed.
