- **SharePoint** (Microsoft) - widely used for document storage and organization

- **Alfresco** - open-source alternative

- **M-Files** - focuses on metadata-driven management

- **OpenText** - enterprise-grade solution

## Cloud-Based Solutions

- **Google Drive/Google Workspace** - simple organization and version history

- **OneDrive** (Microsoft) - integrates with Office 365

- **Box** - enterprise cloud content management

- **Dropbox** - file storage with version control

## Version Control Systems (for technical documents/code)

- **Git** (with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket) - primarily for code but used for documents

- **Subversion (SVN)** - centralized version control

## Specialized Document Management

- **DocuWare** - workflow automation focused

- **Laserfiche** - captures and automates workflows

## What You Need Depends On:

**SharePoint** is probably the most common choice for general business use, while smaller companies often use Google Workspace or OneDrive.
