Company document mangement

[Reasteh]

Currently our company document management is all over the place. It is all hosted on a network drive that can be accessed throughout the company by anyone. People can make new files/folders and different versions so can sometimes be hard to find things.

What would be the best solution to overcome this, such as an intranet or any other document mangement software there is available.

What sort of file/doc management is there in the places you work for and does it work well? (file upload/download/user access etc etc)

I've had good experience with this in the past:

Firstly, lock down the security on the network share!

Give all users read-only access, and give only your document controllers read/write access.

That's probably the easiest, lowest-cost option available to you.

Sharepoint is great if you can get people into the mind set of using it. It also helps reduce email storage problems as there is one central location for the documents.

You might like to check out www.huddle.net - it provides document storage/sharing, file versioning, permissions and audit trails amongst other stuff. Unlike Sharepoint it's a fully hosted and managed service, so you don't need an IT infrastructure to maintain it.

Same here, hate it with a passion and I bet it ain't cheap either.
