DocPoint supports a PC with Windows XP/Vista./Win 7/8/10.
You will need a scanner to convert paper document to files and import them into DocPoint.

Yes. Comprehensive documentation will get personal users up and running with DocPoint  in no time. However, some of our larger customers find it time and cost effective to learn from DocPoint  experts. You can enlist a DocPoint representative or reseller for on-site training and document management consulting to facilitate the deployment process.

We provide comprehensive user, administration, and installation manuals. Click here for documentation

Installing DocPoint on client workstations is simple and takes a few minutes. Step-by-step administration and installation guides will walk you through setting up and configuring DocPoint to work in your organization’s network environment.

DocPoint  has a powerful document import wizard designed to help you import multiple documents quickly and easily. DocPoint uses file name and metadata to automatically populate the imported document record.

DocPoint can manage any kind of computer-generated file. You can use DocPoint  to manage Microsoft Office documents, scanned records, CAD drawings, and every other kind of file you and your organization work with.

You can view and edit computer-generated files if you have a suitable application installed on the local workstation and registered in the Windows registry.

DocPoint is integrated seamlessly into MS Office. Once DocPoint is installed an ‘Add to DocPoint’ button is added to the menu of Outlook, Word, Excel and Powerpoint. Creating Office documents and sending emails are performed from within DocPoint.

Documents are stored in their native format in repositories specified by the user or system administrator. Documents can automatically be assigned a storage location according to cabinet and folder context.

Using DocPoint to manage your documents results in a central information and knowledge repository for you and your organization, facilitating backups and knowledge retention.

In an effort to allow users pinpoint any document within seconds, DocPoint  allows you to search according to document properties, cabinet, folders, classification, owner, addressee, and more. The reporting capabilities are varied and subject to the user’s search criteria, and provide an efficient way to locate information.

Yes. DocPoint prevents users from trying to access the same documents simultaneously by using a record locking mechanism to protect database integrity.

Yes. DocPoint  stores and tracks previous document versions. You can manage and track document versions by creation/modification date, author, and textual comment.

Only authorized users can access files based of configurable access levels. Extensive security measures can be employed per cabinet, folder, document, user, and workgroup. DocPoint’s rich set of security features assist organizations in SOX, SEC, and HIPPA regulation compliance.

Yes. DocPoint allows you to archive cabinets and files to another storage medium such as CD and DVD.

There is no limit on the number of DocPoint users. The number of users does reflect in the pricing of the various product editions.

Yes. DocPoint’s security methodology allows the system administrator to define access and viewing privileges to cabinets, files, and folders. This means that you can create document repositories and prevent select users from even knowing of their existence.

DocPoint’s security mechanism allows you to authorize users remote access privileges over the Internet. This does not require additional software, and is easily achieved with components already included with Windows. Remote access can also be achieved using Remote Desktop, Terminal Server, Citrix or a VPN connection.

DocPoint can run over a WAN. However, it is our experience that clients prefer running DocPoint using Windows Terminal Server when accessing documents from remote locations. This is a faster solution when viewing, editing, and performing queries since information remains at the central repository, and there is no need to send documents over the network for viewing.

We have successfully deployed DocPoint across organizations with remote offices. Our experience suggests that when performing queries that produce large output data bandwidth becomes a factor. In such situations some of our clients increased their Internet connection speed to minimize client/server response time.

A rich feature set at an affordable price places DocPoint at the forefront of document and imaging management solutions. Our ‘Try Before You Buy’ distribution method permits us to sell feature-rich products at affordable prices. The initial investment in DocPoint and the total cost of ownership are significantly lower than other products with similar functionality.

Enterprise-wide systems take months – at best – to evaluate, fund, design, implement, and debug. During this process you can immediately reap benefits by using DocPoint. Our customers have DocPoint up-and-running in less than a week, and enjoy a rapid return on investment. Even after an enterprise-wide system is put in place, DocPoint will continue to provide important benefits to your department, while interoperating with the enterprise-wide application.

There are many satisfied customers who consider DocPoint an integral part of their business process. Many of them tried other document management solutions before, and experienced adoption resistance, integration difficulties, and a lengthy employee learning process. It is our experience that DocPoint  is compelling to use, not only because it allows you to pinpoint information within seconds, but also because it transforms the document management process into an enjoyable experience.

There is no need to upgrade your file system to use DocPoint. You can import your files and documents to DocPoint, and leave your existing file system intact.

Updates and bug fixes are released continuously. They are free to download for users who subscribe to the Annual Support Plan.

The Annual Support plan includes free software updates and technical support (purchased major version only). You can purchase an Annual Support subscription at our online store.

Yes. DocPoint’s database stores information about your files, such as subject, topic, writer, addressee, classification, status, storage location, and more. The database allows DocPoint to quickly provide current information about your documents without searching through thousands of physical files for every query. DocPoint’s powerful search capabilities are presented to users in a friendly interface that makes the underlying database technology transparent.

DocPoint is IT friendly. Once you deploy DocPoint in your workplace there is little need for IT staff attention. Basic first-time setup and routine maintenance are handled by the same users who use DocPoint  to manage their documents.

DocPoint supports all versions of MS SQL Server.

DocPoint has no inherent limit to the number of documents and records it can manage. DocPoint’s performance depends on infrastructure characteristics such as server processor speed, memory, hard disk controller, and number of concurrent users.   

Yes. You can export documents, cabinets, and folders using an export wizard. In addition, you can access the database directly and draw information using SQL tools. It is also possible to work with a DocPoint  customization specialist to develop automatic data extraction features.

Nothing at all. Users have a friendly and intuitive interface at their command, and there is no need of any database management expertise.

DocPoint’s database and storage locations are configurable, and your IT department can easily add them to a routine backup procedure. When creating and importing documents to DocPoint, the user chooses a logical storage location. This is useful, since the administrator maps the logical storage location to a physical one, resulting in a situation where all documents are saved in predetermined locations, and routinely backed up.
