M-Files Ground Link Connects Salesforce To Documents In On-Premises SharePoint Libraries

Seamless access to on-premises document libraries in SharePoint makes Salesforce adoption easier, avoids migrations and enforces information governance

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) - M-Files Corporation, the intelligent information management company, today unveiled a unique solution that integrates Salesforce with on-premises repositories and systems like SharePoint. The new integration is based on the M-Files Ground Link technology which provides a secure and easy way to connect cloud-based systems and repositories with on-premises documents and data.

M-Files Ground Link allows cloud applications such as Salesforce to quickly and securely connect to important documents, files and business applications stored and managed on-premises in network folders, SharePoint, legacy ECM or other repositories.

Customer-related documents, such as proposals, presentations, contracts, purchase orders, and emails, are a key part of customer relationship management, but often reside in on-premises data stores making them inaccessible for cloud solutions like Salesforce without costly data migrations or unwanted content duplication. With M-Files, organizations can now tap directly into these formerly isolated information silos and utilize them from the cloud.

Salesforce users can now see documents and other files that are stored in SharePoint directly in the familiar account and opportunity views in Salesforce. They can browse, edit and add new documents to the SharePoint library as if they would in SharePoint directly, which drives user efficiency and productivity. In addition, Salesforce users can use search to look for data from within their SharePoint sites. M-Files support for Salesforce also enables users to easily tag or attach documents to Salesforce objects such as accounts, leads, contacts, and opportunities.

With M-Files Ground Link, there is no need to migrate data or disturb existing processes, which makes Salesforce adoption faster and more affordable. By linking cloud-based applications like Salesforce to on-premises document repositories, M-Files also enables organizations to better enforce centralized information governance policies.

“M-Files extends the benefits of Salesforce by providing a 360-degree view of all enterprise data, wherever it is stored, in the cloud or on-premises," said Maria Carballosa, chief marketing officer at M-Files. "Integrating Salesforce with existing document libraries in on-premises SharePoint with a context-driven, AI-powered and automatic approach, greatly boosts adoption and delivers significant value to any Salesforce implementation.”

With its deep integration and support for Salesforce, M-Files provides an easy-to-use professional document and process management system for thousands of customers around the world. The M-Files for Salesforce solution helps businesses make dramatic gains in productivity by improving the way they organize, manage and track documents and processes.

M-Files will demonstrate how to connect Salesforce to on-premises SharePoint libraries using the Ground Link technology at the upcoming Dreamforce conference, to be held November 19-22, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, where M-Files will exhibit in booth #1038.
