What is Document Management Systems?

Document Management Software (DMS) is a category of software designed to store, manage, and track electronic documents and images of paper-based information. DMS supports critical business functions such as compliance, collaboration, knowledge retention, and operational efficiency by enabling secure access, version control, metadata tagging, and workflow automation. To ensure successful adoption, organizations should prioritize high-impact use cases such as contract lifecycle management, policy distribution, or project documentation centralization. These focused applications help demonstrate value early and build momentum for broader adoption.
