webDMS is totally new; it was designed and programmed from the ground up for fast mobile and cloud performance using the latest web-browser technologies.
webDMS is an outgrowth of PerfectLaw’s Attorney Information Manager, AIM®. It incorporates all the creation, search, and retrieval features AIM® users are accustomed too, along with seamless integration with Microsoft® Office365®.
webDMS’ unique architecture addresses many security, performance, and integration issues affecting law firms. Perhaps the most important are
Security issues such as Ransomware
Performance issues when working remotely
Clumsiness coupled with a steep learning curve
Poor integration with Windows®, Office® and PDFs, especially with respect to
security and Drag and Drop functionality
Limited searching capability
Shaky vendor syndrome where the vendor has been sold recently or goes
out of business and the product goes on life support
With webDMS, users will enjoy collaborating with one another, creating documents, profiles, versions using drag and drop gestures to move, copy and link documents into custom folders. Working with webDMS is much like working with Microsoft® Windows®; helping attorneys transition to the cloud in little to no time at all.
