Almost all CRM and accounting solutions today are expected to integrate with each other. This not only reduces the amount of work that staff has to perform to complete transactions, it also creates integrity in that data does not need to be duplicated throughout all of the disparate systems. Now, this all is easier said than done and there are several reasons why. Integrating systems from different vendors generally becomes not a only a painful process but a costly one.

In addition, when time comes to upgrade any of those integrated systems will they continue to play communicate with each other? What costs are involved to upgrade the integration or in worst case scenarios does it have to be rewritten all together? Due to all of these factors, in a lot of cases, cost becomes the prohibitive factor in setting up or maintaining integrated systems.

docAssist has several integration technologies that redefine integration. Our technologies are “non-invasive” which means we do not require any changes or customizations to your applications. This translates into a model that requires NO upfront costs or maintenance costs to maintain the integration. The result is a solution that extends your existing systems with a robust, web-based document management solution.

There are lots of document management solutions on the market that either don’t integrate or require extensive programming and customizations to configure with your systems. Using a document management system that is not “tied” into your systems will create a “silo effect” which will cause your staff to perform twice the amount of work when indexing and searching for documents. Why would you sacrifice any of the efficiencies gained of a document management system that either does’nt integrate or is cost prohibitive to when you dont need to? If there were no barriers to integrate your systems then you would say that it becomes a necessity –but with docAssist it won’t be painful.
