Secure & Control Electronic Documents

Adept provides single and multi-site companies with secure, controlled access to documents from any connected location. Whether you require a centralized document vault or distributed vaults at each of your locations, Adept ensures that your documents are secure and provides built in version control and an audit trail for each document throughout its lifecycle.

Adept’s vaulting methodology is unique in that it provides the security and control you need without encrypting or scrambling your folder structure or filenames, nor does it import your documents into the database itself. We’ve found our approach to be important to most clients who want to know that their proprietary, mission critical corporate documents are accessible should they ever need to access them outside of Adept or should they ever choose to move their information to another repository. Our approach also streamlines database performance and enables easy administration and backups when compared with systems that import your documents into the database.

Adept administrators have significantly greater control over user/ group access rights to documents than is available in Windows. Users are placed into one or more Groups and Groups are assigned access rights to collections of documents. You have complete control over who can view, print, markup, copy, check in/out, assign, edit protected metadata fields, approve, delete, move, rename and more.

With Adept, a Group may be given significant access rights to one collection of documents, minimal rights to another, while having absolutely no access rights to another. Groups can be set up according to your needs, and are often created based on department, discipline, or project teams. Administering access rights in Adept does not require network administrator rights and is often performed by department managers, reducing impact on busy IT personnel.
