M-Files Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Director of IT at JH Kelly4.0I use M-Files for legal contract management, finding its workflow and dashboards excellent for our team. It’s stable and scalable. However, API integration is weak, technical support is slow, and initial setup took much longer than anticipated.
Managing Director5.0I find M-Files outstanding for document management and CRM, with phenomenal support, excellent scalability, and flexible pricing. My only wish is for OCR on connected drives, but overall, it's a 10/10 solution.
