Document Vault Overview

Document Vault™, powered by M-Files© is the document management system used by eCounsel. With Document Vault, you can store all documents relevant to eCounsel in a secure repository, add data related to the documents, such as the matter to which a document belongs, and keep track of changes with version control. Documents are automatically classified when saved, so you don't need to worry about keeping a folder hierarchy or remembering the document location. The classification structure of Document Vault can be modified by system administrators.

Document Vault stores documents based on:

  • Document type
  • Date
  • Matter
  • Person or Company

Benefits are as follows:

  • Documents are easy to find
  • Automatic versioning
  • Availability offline
  • Document re-use

Document Vault is based on M-Files, a document management system that creates a virtual disk drive in Windows, which you can find as M: virtual drive.

Document Metadata

Document Vault relies on document metadata for organizing documentation. Metadata consists of information about a document, such as:

  • Matter type
  • Creation date
  • Document type (class)
  • Matter to which the document belongs
  • Region associated to the matter
  • Date when the matter was opened
  • Audit trail (who did what and when)
