Co-Authoring is a Core Component of Visual QMS

Why should I use Co-Authoring in a Quality Management System?

Writing guiding documents in a controlled way is crucial to compliance and quality management. The process of document review is a very collaborative process from start to finish. However, with working from home becoming more prevalent, it is usually impossible to meet physically for a document review. Moreover, checking out a document to co-authoring is often a manual task, with the risk of public links to business-critical documents being bounced around in emails or chats.

Visual QMS software provides the right set of tools for document co-authoring, allowing editors and reviewers to quickly and securely check out a document to just the right people for collaborative editing.


Share securely with Controlled Co-Authoring

Our controlled co-authoring solution integrates directly with M-Files and your online editor of choice (OneDrive or Google Drive) and is easy to use. Only one click is required to get started and another to invite more people, it is that easy.

Any invites to documents are tightly controlled by our application, ensuring that you always have an overview of what has been shared and with who. Furthermore, only people with the correct set of permissions in M-Files may share a document with additional people. In addition to internal collaboration, our solution can also be used to invite external people to co-author.

Internal access to shared documents is controlled by single sign-on (SSO), and external access is protected using one-time passwords (OTP), preventing documents from falling into the wrong hands.
