Document Locator

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.
