How To Create a File Management System For Efficient Information Management In Companies

A study shows that small to midsize companies with annual revenue between $300k and $800 can save about $40k every year by switching to a digital File Management System”

The need for digitalized workflow has increased multifold, pushing businesses to turn to File Management System solutions to streamline the collected information. A cloud-based File Management System stores all the company’s documents and files and retrieves them whenever we want. 

A well-defined File Management System Solution can help eradicate business hurdles like errors and misplacement of important files. With remote working teams, following the traditional File Management System becomes impossible. 

Objective:

To create a File Management System that can easily store, arrange, and access files on a storage location to help in the seamless functioning of data and information management.

Challenge:

The main challenge was to organize digital files from multiple departments easily search the latest files and enhance usability with advanced file management. 

Solution:

We were devising a File Manager admin dashboard with modules like Image, Video, and Document sections to manage, remove, and screen the content optimally. We curated a panel using the HOPE UI dashboard with a minimal and clean design and interface that can easily differentiate main files from navigation. To build a finer user experience for all departments.

We started with a file manager admin dashboard that considers a unique Folder featuring the number of Images, Video files, Audio, Assignment, UI Kit, design, Movies, and Documents. 

We added the following functionalities: 

• Create subfolders

• Monitor shared documents

• Upload multiple files

• Graphical presentation

• Fully responsive dashboard layout 

• Search for docs using keywords

• Custom color options

• Simplified user interface 

To boost productivity by recognizing recently added files, we added an indication UX with a Recently Added design block. Features the name of files, last modified date and time, size, and action. 

In terms of usability of a function, we used sleek and minimal icons which makes a massive distinguishing factor. 

Result:

The dashboard gives a clear vision making it easy to quickly locate desired files and streamline the work for better productivity and efficiency. With a highly flexible dashboard that allows drag-and-drop elements to customize the accessibility. We have worked to deliver the extensively designed File Management system that works for most small to mid-sized companies.

Key Takeaway and Recommendation: 

Avoid endless scrolling and have complete control over your files. Besides, Hope UI can allow subtle changes in buttons and icons which create an overall cohesive experience for the users.
