This month the company celebrates ten years of offering secure, stable and scalable cloud-based services to over 6,000 cloud customers across the globe.
DocuWare, a provider of document management and workflow automation solutions since 1988, first expanded its product portfolio from on-premises to cloud-based solutions in 2012.
“Technology accelerates growth and cloud solutions open more growth opportunities and while on-premises installations still have their value, we knew that businesses needed a more scalable and flexible platform – so we introduced DocuWare Cloud,” said President, Dr. Michael Berger.
In 2012, DocuWare was a pioneer amongst document management providers when it introduced what it then called DocuWare Online. This early model offered secure document management and cloud storage solutions. It immediately gained popularity in the SMB market, but it was clear that companies of any size had a lot to gain and DocuWare had many new cloud customers signing on within the first few months.
In 2015 when DocuWare renamed this online solution DocuWare Cloud, they had already experienced significant cloud customer growth. The business agility and resilience of the cloud platform meant that customers everywhere were signing up.
While digital transformation is well underway in most countries, businesses still struggle with the fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic. Those not set up to support a remote workforce have a lot of catching up to do. The pandemic sped up the need for automation and spurred the demand for cloud-based solutions.
“With the onset of remote working, DocuWare has seen growth in our cloud customer base in countries and industries that prior to 2020, were slow to adopt. We started with nine customers and are now at over 6,000 and counting. As we move into our tenth year of providing DocuWare Cloud, we have the experience and know-how to meet the growing demand for Enterprise Content Management. We have spent years perfecting our solutions and the services we provide to our customers. We facilitate change throughout their organization with simple and fast deployments that require minimal planning and IT resources from our customers,” concluded Dr. Michael Berger.
