Why It Matters

Shared drives and email attachments make documents hard to find

Every document organized in one searchable place

Documents scattered across shared drives, email attachments and personal folders get consolidated into one library, organized by department and document type, so anyone with access can find what they need.

  • Consistent folder structure by department
  • Search by name, type or content
  • No more asking a colleague to resend a file

Every edit kept as a version, every document secured

Each change to a document is kept as a new version rather than overwriting the last one, and access is limited to the people and teams who should be able to see or edit it.

  • Full version history on every document
  • Access limited by role or team
  • A record of who viewed or edited what

From scattered files to one searchable library

  1. Map your document types

    Identify the documents each department creates, edits and needs to find.

  2. Set the folder structure

    Organize by department and document type, matching how your teams work.

  3. Set access rules

    Decide who can view, edit or approve each folder or document type.

  4. Migrate existing files

    Move documents out of shared drives and email attachments into the library.

  5. Search and retrieve

    Find any document by name, type or content, instead of searching an inbox.

Storage, search, versions and access, in one place

  • Central storage

    One library for documents that used to sit across drives and inboxes.

  • Search and retrieval

    Find a document by name, type, folder or content in seconds.

  • Version history

    Every edit kept as a new version, with the previous ones still available.

  • Access control

    Only the people and teams you choose can view or edit a document.

  • Migration from shared drives

    Existing files moved out of scattered drives and email attachments.

  • Audit trail

    A record of who viewed, edited or approved each document.

Why teams use a document management system through TCB Infotech

  • We map before we migrate

    Folder structure and access rules are built around your departments before any file moves.

  • Nothing gets overwritten

    Version history is kept from day one, so past versions stay recoverable.

  • Access set by role

    Permissions are set by team and role, not left open by default.

  • Built around your teams

    The library mirrors how finance, HR and operations already organize their work.

  • Migration handled for you

    Existing files are moved out of shared drives and email attachments as part of the rollout.

Document Management System, answered

What is a document management system?

A centralized system for storing, organizing, versioning and retrieving business documents, with access control and search, replacing shared drives and email attachments as the place documents live.

How is this different from a shared drive?

A shared drive stores files but rarely tracks versions, controls access by role, or makes content searchable. A document management system adds version history, access control and search on top of central storage.

What happens to our existing files?

Existing files are migrated out of shared drives and email attachments into the new library as part of the rollout, organized into the folder structure agreed with your teams.

Who can see or edit a document?

Access is set by role or team, so only the people who should be able to view or edit a document, or a folder of documents, can do so.

Can we find a document by its content, not just its file name?

Yes. Documents can be searched by name, type, folder or content, so a document does not need to be remembered by an exact file name.

Does this replace our ERP or CRM?

No. The document library sits alongside your ERP or CRM, and can link documents such as contracts or invoices to the records they relate to.
