The performance and acceptability of a document management system depends largely on how quickly and easily documents of many different types, from a wide range of sources, can be imported into the system. The basic principle of DocuWare is geared towards the normal office environment: documents arrive first in electronic in-trays or baskets, where they are clipped together and sorted. From here they are stored in file cabinets. The file cabinets represent the document pool that contains all the information needed for accessing and controlling the workflow over the network. DocuWare has powerful import features, which can be automated with a variety of options, thereby ensuring that all document types are filed away in the right place.

The acceptability of a document management system depends mainly on how quickly it finds the information you are looking for. DocuWare makes this both simple and convenient: search terms can be entered in full, in part, in combination or selected from lists. Categorized and fulltext searches can be combined. Whichever method you use, the results are returned in a matter of seconds in a list that you can sort as you wish. File cabinets can also be displayed in a hierarchical tree structure.
