Questions

Document Management, answered.

What file types are supported?
PDF, Office documents and images against records, plus video in the media library, everything up to 10 MB per document and 450 MB per video.
How do new-starter forms work?
HR sends a secure link by email or SMS. The new starter completes and signs the form online, and the data files itself against their record.
Is access controlled?
Yes. Documents follow timeware®’s permission model, and files are served via secure, time-limited links.
Where is data stored?
In the UK, on Microsoft Azure, encrypted at rest and in transit.
