SYNERGY – e Document Management System

Overview

Today's world of information technology is all about accessing and managing information in a cost‐effective manner, saving valuable time and space.

Research shows that in any business 98 per cent of the documents are stored and archived for future reference after their current utility ends. Large spaces are required for storage of these documents, wasting valuable space. Stored documents are also exposed to the risk of damage, being misplaced or misfiled. Retrieving old documents is extremely time consuming as well as resource centric sometimes, additional manpower is required just to maintain them.
