Document Locator vs. M-Files

Document Locator is a powerful document management system that improves efficiency and reduces risk. It works right inside Microsoft Windows, making it particularly easy to use. Plus, an optional Web browser interface extends the reach of files beyond the office walls. As files are saved into Document Locator, everything becomes full-text searchable. Versioning captures all changes, and workflow routes information for notifications and approvals. Files are organized with auto-naming and filing technology.

M-Files delivers Context-First Document Management with an AI-native, metadata-driven architecture that eliminates information chaos and improves productivity across the document lifecycle. By linking documents to the people, processes, clients, and projects that give them meaning, M-Files creates a unified, connected environment that accelerates decision-making, strengthens governance, and streamlines industry-specific workflows through advanced workflow automation and AI. M-Files is also the only document management system that is native to Microsoft 365.
