Per Lindblad

M&A and IT Manager, AQ Group

"It’s almost impossible to quantify how much time we save — but instead of asking where documents are, we're talking hundreds, maybe thousands of hours."

Gunnar Lindström

European Director of EHSQ Management, SSAB

“We had two critical requirements: The new system needed to be based on our processes, not our organizational structure. And we wanted to manage documents in a modern, professional way — based on metadata rather than traditional search and indexing.”

Preben Andre Onarheim

COO, Head Energy

"We had to scale our systems while we scaled our business. M-Files scalability was key to the decision to use them. I feel pretty confident that quality has increased. We know we only have one version of a document. We have good document history, good storage. The ways that we can make mistakes are limited."

Kristine Kolstad

Documentation Lead, Hafslund Celsio

"The lack of a proper archiving system made it difficult to comply with regulatory requirements. It was challenging to locate and manage documents effectively; the lack of a centralized system was a major obstacle to our efficiency. Hafslund Celsio needed one common system that could store all our important documents in one place."

Marcus Warensjö-Sommar

Head of Group Procurement, Odevo

“M-Files offers a secure and flexible solution to manage our entire contract process. The combination of AI and process automation integrated with Odevo’s Contract Lifecycle Management has been crucial in our choice of solution.”

Håkan Sandberg

IT Manager, Trelleborg Sealing Solutions Kalmar AB

“With M-Files, our employees are happy. They understand how objects are connected, how to find information, and how workflows can be tracked. It’s given Trelleborg better control, clarity, and trust in its data.”
