About

M-Files is a Context-First document management system that uses metadata-driven architecture, workflow automation, and AI to improve visibility, compliance, and efficiency.

M-Files is the only document management system native to Microsoft 365. This unified approach brings Microsoft collaboration, Copilot, and Purview governance directly to curated M-Files content, creating a secure, connected environment that protects Microsoft investments while improving productivity and policy-driven consistency.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I have been using M-Files for over 4 years now and I can say it is one of the best. First, I like that the interface is amazing and that it is easy to understand the many features. Secondly, I like that the tool is very secure. Thirdly, I like the ease of uploading, retrieving and sharing files.
  • There is a lot I like about M-Files. First, the tool is secure which is amazing. The tool comes with an intuitive User Interface. This software makes content collaboration seamless.
  • M-files is easy to deploy and comes with great security features. I like the ease of archiving, retrieving and sharing documents. Accessing files is easy. I like that there is both mobile and web version.
  • Easy to use, if you can use Google, you can use M-Files. The idea of using metadata instead of a file structure is very intelligent. Everything I need to know about my customers, their bills and emails are all in one place. No going to multiple programs/applications to get the full scope of their business.

Cons

  • With my great encounters using M-Files, I cannot think of any flaw. This software is more than great.
  • My only concern is that M-Files is not the most affordable. However, it works well.
  • The user interface is not the best. The vendor should improve on this.
  • Takes a little bit of time to re-think document management.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The tool offers many features within a simple layout that is easy to understand and navigate. That leads to a good user experience.
  • The tool suits businesses of all sizes, and we are the practical proof. Our team size was 10 when we first started using ProProfs, and we used to operate with 40 pages of content. 4 years down the line, we are a team of 180 and operate with 200+ content pages.
  • The tool made it easy for us to import data from Word docs, Excel sheets, and Powerpoint presentations. The tool also provided us with an option for exporting the knowledge base as an HTML or PDF.
  • ProProfs Knowledge Base offers several integrations with tools like Zendesk, Freshdesk, Slack, Google Analytics, and many others. These integrations have helped us make the most of our knowledge base by using it in combination with various other tools.
  • In our experience of 20 years, we haven’t come across a tool so simple yet so powerful and rich. Add to it the value for money it offers and the tool becomes an excellent solution for companies looking for a powerful tool that can fit their budget as well as expectations.

Cons

  • It worked fine for me and my team. No complaints as of now.
  • The existing content templates work great, but offer fewer variations of designs.They need to add some fresh designs to their templates.
  • We are satisfied with its performance on PC and iOS. However, the tool sometimes underperforms on Android.
  • The tool lags in speed at times but in no time, it starts working at its usual pace.
  • Every tool has room for improvement. So does ProProfs Knowledge Base. It would be nice to see a more advanced version of the software.
