Secure Document Management Software With Custom Access

Whether you're a law firm, a marketing agency, an NGO, or a hospital, a good document management platform is crucial in keeping your organization feeling professional inside and out. Organize and safely store documents with Bitrix24. Decide who and when can access certain documents with custom access rights.

With Bitrix24 document management platform, you get somewhere you can store your files and that comes with a whole host of extra features as standard. Plus, your documents link up with every area of your company, from project management and communications to HR and finance.

Now you’ve got searchable directories that people can consult on the cloud, rather than stacks and shelves of paper documents to sift through every time you need something.


What is a document management platform?

Put simply, your platform for document management is where you organize all the files your company needs. Nowadays, most platforms are cloud-based so your remote teams can access information at the click of a button from anywhere in the world.

Within your Drive, you’ll have a tiered structure of folders that is easy to navigate — this is where the “management” aspect comes in. Every company is different, so your structure should reflect what makes sense for you. Don’t worry if you don’t nail it the first time though. You can always modify it as necessary.


Creating collaborative documents

Before you start to organize your documents, you’ll need to create them.

Bitrix24 allows you and your team to work together on files in real time — ideal for remote teams, but equally useful if you’re at the same desk. You’ll only ever have one version, rather than a folder full of first drafts and “FINAL 2.0” files clogging up the system. Need to go back to an old version? Don’t worry — they’re all backed up in the Revision History feature.

By using Bitrix24, you can then easily find the document by navigating through your folders, typing the name into the search function, or by receiving a link to it.


Boost your quality control with access rights

Collaborative documents have changed the face of work for every kind of organization, but sometimes you don’t want the whole world to make changes. A key part of your document organization is to know when to allow a final draft to be final and restrict access to block extra changes.

Restrict access rights as part of your document approval workflow to keep a handle on your quality management. Alternatively, you might want to keep access to only a few minds in the lead up to a product launch. By managing your access rights, you can help to avoid leaks and maintain your brand’s voice when publishing texts.


Store your docs in a well-structured Drive

Bitrix24’s document management platform lets you customize Drives to make them as easy as possible for your organization to navigate. Of course, these will be stored in the cloud so you’ll have no problems accessing them. You can even work on your documents offline, and as soon as you’re connected again, your Drive will update itself.

Multiple drives mean you can separate work by department or even give each team member their own personal drive. Just like with the documents themselves, you can control access rights to each Drive and chat as a team with your own workgroup within the company intranet.


Quick, accurate files for your customers

When you’re on the phone to a potential client, the last thing you want is to be fumbling around looking for the right document to send over. Store folders with well-organized paperwork on your CRM and cut out the stress of a messy system.

Over time, it will become clear which files you use most in certain situations, so set up workflows that contain all the necessary documents within them. Better yet, save your team time and effort by automating processes like an initial welcome email, complete with files attached. This is where a good document management platform meets a great customer experience.


Onboard new hires like a pro

It’s not just your customers who will benefit from Bitrix24.

Whenever you’ve recruited a new team member, your HR department can dip into a neat folder to manage contracts and share documentation and get people up to speed. Collaborative documents mean you’ll always have the latest material at hand and if you prefer sending links to your files, it will remain the same regardless of how many versions you have saved.

Where the onboarding process really comes into its own is for growing teams. When things start getting hectic, at least you know your newbies are receiving standardized training documents across the board. This quality control is fantastic for ambitious teams opening up in new markets.


Level up your project management

Project management can be tricky whether you’re a small company just starting out or you’ve already grown into a vast organization. However, Bitrix24 allows you to neatly set up tasks and get a wide overview of how things are progressing.

Attach key documents to each task so your team has the resources they need immediately. Instead of sending them through your drive, just add a link and they’re only a click away.

Once they’re done, you can review the work and watch Bitrix24 automatically assign the next task in the pipeline.
