    Considered Both Products
    MFiles
    Chose M‑Files
    Document handling is much easier as in SharePoint. We select M-files because its metadata model fits our needs better, and it is easier to use than SharePoint. You can customize metadata easily and fast.

    Chose M‑Files
    I used Worldox document management system for almost 14 years at a previous employer. Worldox was a good product 2001-2015, however staff use was limited because it was not user-friendly and other products (e.g., M-Files) had more features. I've used SharePoint for ~2.5 years …

    Chose SharePoint
    We use both M-Files and MS SharePoint. The strengths of M-Files are user experience and adoption. It can be deployed and managed much easier than MS SharePoint. Since we use both there are pieces of each installation that are integrated. We would probably move entirely to M-…
