Your DMS candidate doesn't even offer a demo version for self-installation?
Warning! Then you can already assume that you will always be dependent on third-party support with this system, which means costs and dependency.
Contact support with your demo version and measure the time from problem to resolution.
So you can roughly estimate the response times if you really need someone on the phone after the purchase.
Nothing is worse than a company standing still because of your IT service provider.
You can only get tips and tricks in a good presentation.
The presentation should be there to find solutions to your problems and not to sell.
Be sure to let us show you how exactly you can solve your requirements with the DMS and do not trust promises or PowerPoint presentations
Most features should be showable, the rest can be optionally customized - but never everything!
Nothing is worse than being dependent.
If you are dissatisfied with your mobile operator, then simply switch:
But what about a DMS?
Any trustworthy and reputable software offers you the possibility to export your documents AT ANY TIME and WITHOUT A PAID LICENSE.
Don't make yourself dependent, because ultimately the non-switching option can also be used against you.
Every system has advantages and disadvantages, no matter what people try to tell you.
Ultimately, the right DMS is what suits you, your company and your way of working.
Never forget that this DMS will be one to which you will entrust all your documents and thus your company's capital.
Document storage in the cloud? The "cloud" is technically just another person's hard drive over which you have no control.
Possibly a hybrid application is the safe and independent solution (the data is then in your house or on a dedicated server)
