Microsoft Outlook – not just your Inbox
Integrate information management with Outlook
Combine the familiar user experience of Outlook with powerful information management tools to create a work hub that’s more than the sum of its parts.
Ease of access with control over content
Using Outlook folders for document management does not support you in providing an integrated view to all content — the data is siloed, hard to find, and inaccessible to those who need it.
The M-Files Outlook Add-ins ensure that no matter how email-driven your day-to-day work is, the content that matters the most gets the full treatment of ease of access, permissions, and workflow. The Outlook Add-ins can help you save documents to M-Files for automatic processing and access control to make sure no contract or official piece of information is left in an inbox for no one to find. We can also give you direct access to your M-Files information from within Outlook, so no application switching is necessary.
Standard Outlook Add-in
Pre-packaged in M-Files, the Standard Outlook Add-in is designed to help you get emails and attachments into M-Files. Files can be found correctly labelled with the rest of your information, in the right context, with the right permissions, in the suitable workflow.
Advanced Outlook Add-in
The Advanced Outlook Add-in for M-Files brings a powerful set of information management tools into the familiar Outlook user interface. You no longer have to switch between applications and slow your work — it is all available through Outlook.
