MetaShare overview

What is MetaShare?

MetaShare is an app installed on top of SharePoint that enables a completely new type of document management in Microsoft 365 or SharePoint 2019. MetaShare does not replace SharePoint. MetaShare uses SharePoint's powerful engine and adds features that greatly improve and simplify SharePoint's interface.

How it works:

Documents are tagged with different metadata when you create or upload a document, such as an agreement and customer or other metadata that is important for your business.

MetaShare helps the user find by searching and filtering. By (for example) filtering on agreements and customers , the user quickly finds the agreements that apply to a specific customer.

You choose which metadata you want to use and how you want to build your structure in MetaShare.

MetaShare is fully integrated with Microsoft 365 and installs as a shell on top of Microsoft 365 and SharePoint. In other words, MetaShare finds your documents no matter where they are stored in Microsoft 365.

MetaShare also has other in-demand document management features not found in SharePoint, such as automatic reminders when it’s time to act and automatic thinning and archiving.Implementing MetaShare is easy. In practice, implementing MetaShare means going from a folder structure to a metadata structure and that documents are tagged with metadata instead of being saved in different folders.

It may sound difficult but it goes quickly and smoothly. The time from project start to when you can start working in MetaShare is usually 1 to 3 weeks.

It is easy to create workspaces in MetaShare that are configured based on purpose and working methods. MetaShare:

- Gives you an overview of all workspaces that you have access to.

- Makes it possible to create and manage existing workspaces without involving IT.

- Each workspace can be marked based on designated roles and access permissions.

- Makes it easy to co-author documents.

- Documents can easily be sent for review and / or approval.

Easy to follow regulations:

MetaShare make it easy to follow rules such as GDPR, QHSE (quality, health, safety, environment) and/or ISO standards.

- Confidentiality: Documents only available to authorized persons.

- Accuracy: Documents are correct with protection against unwanted change.

- Availability: Access at the request of the authorized.

Access to document templates:

- Document templates are stored and maintained centrally.

- Configure which templates to suggest to users.

- Create documents from MetaShare or Office applications.

- Documents created from templates are tagged and stored in the right place.

Key benefits of using MetaShare

- MetaShare makes it easy to find, work with and reuse documents. Documents in MetaShare are organized with metadata. This means that the user does not have to know the entire long path in a complicated folder structure.

- MetaShare enables multiple ways to intuitively find documents. You can filter by metadata and search for free text in all documents in Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint and MetaShare. So you do not need to know where the document is stored.

- MetaShare takes a few minutes to activate and a few hours to configure. Thereafter, MetaShare significantly shortens the time for document management.

- MetaShare automatically applies a unified metadata structure, views, and settings to all workspaces. We call these configurations. For example, project managers can easily create their project project workspaces from a project configuration without the help of IT.

- Changes to configurations update existing workspaces and exclude costly manual work and script programming. Minimal knowledge of SharePoint is required to maintain MetaShare configurations.

- MetaShare supports many types of metadata fields, including a type that uses terms that are defined and maintained in SharePoint’s term store. If you change the name of, for example, contract to agreement, all documents are updated automatically. If you add a new term, it is available in all workspaces immediately.

- MetaShare is a pure document management solution whose only task is to create order, automate processes, save time and reduce risks. Still, MetaShare costs no more than the employee’s daily cups of coffee.
