NetDocuments overview

What is NetDocuments?

NetDocuments is a cloud-native SaaS document management system (DMS) built for legal professionals across law firms of all sizes and corporate legal departments. The platform centralizes document creation, storage, search, collaboration, and email management within a single secure environment. FedRAMP authorization and compliance with internationally recognized security standards position NetDocuments as a high-trust solution for organizations handling sensitive legal matter files.

NetDocuments extends core DMS functionality through AI-powered search and matter-centric workspaces that surface relevant documents and context without manual navigation. Version control, check-in/check-out workflows, and audit trails support document integrity across distributed teams. Integration with Microsoft 365, Outlook, and other widely adopted legal tools allows firms to work within familiar interfaces while maintaining centralized document governance. Mobile and remote access capabilities support attorneys and staff working across offices or outside the firm network.

The platform supports configurable permission structures, role-based access controls, and automated retention policies, giving legal operations teams granular control over document lifecycle management. Reporting and analytics tools provide visibility into usage patterns and compliance posture. For firms with strict data residency or regulatory requirements, NetDocuments offers deployment options across multiple data center regions, backed by enterprise-grade uptime commitments and dedicated security infrastructure.

Pros
“Outside of the slow upload speeds and occasional downtime, I enjoy being able to use NetDocument's workflow tools to automate repetitive tasks, such as document routing and task notifications.”
BR

Brandon R.

Registered Behavior Technician

“My team and I liked that we were able to access documents from anywhere, the software was organized and well laid out for ease of use, and the security features of this platform were exactly what we needed for our peace of mind.”
BH

Bhumi H.

Operations Specialist

“Intuitive search tools allow you to search for key terms across all files quickly and easily.”
AB

Cons
“Their OCR doubles your space requirements - need to pay for twice the space you need because the OCR Netdocuments uses is very inefficient in that requires that they need to save the OCRd version as a second version - very different than what Worldox used to use”

“Until NetDocuments resolves its OCR storage inefficiencies and significantly improves preview performance, I cannot recommend it for firms that value productivity and cost-effectiveness.”

“For instance, the pre-named file folder for Deposition Related does not allow me to create a subfolder within (i.e. a separate folder for each deponent).”
