  • Retention Policies

    Specify the time period for each document type to be retained. Specify multiple retention policies with document type conditions to ensure different user attributes, such as geographic location.

  • Legal Hold

    Apply a legal hold to a document type or employee to automatically suspend the corresponding document retention policy.  A document record on legal hold cannot be updated and will not be purged.

    Easily configure read and write access to documents, by document type, to control access. Security policies can control purge approval and set user groups required to authenticate purging documents.

  • Bulk document upload

    Import documents in bulk from third‑party cloud solutions or local file systems.

  • Audit trail

    View a complete audit on each employee document from creation or upload in the system to the time it is purged.
