Introduction

This section contains common M-Files terminology and information about this user guide.

The M-Files^® knowledge work automation platform helps you easily store, organize, and access all kinds of documents and information. Our revolutionary approach organizes content based on what something is (and what it relates to) instead of where it is stored.

Instead of the traditional folder-based method, you have instant access to all of your content with search or dynamic views. It is simple, dynamic, and flexible. From managing a wide variety of content to ensuring regulatory compliance, M-Files has you covered.

M-Files organizes content based on what something is (and what it relates to) instead of where it is stored.

You can deploy M-Files on-premises, in the cloud, or a hybrid of both. For more information, see System Overview.
