Another advantage is that even if your team is geographically dispersed, files can be stored and retrieve in the system without problem improving the collaboration within the company. Employees can focus more on important tasks instead of doing manual work like searching for a file. Security is also a advantage because important files and documents is protected and can't be accessed without the proper authorization. Maintaining proper document records and following industry-specific data protection guidelines makes sure that the company is following regulatory compliance.
