Cloud Workflow and Document Management Solution
SaaS: All the Functionality for Less Than Half the Price
Engine-Box is a Cloud workflow and document management solution that requires no software downloads or mobile apps. Just use your browser! Engine-Box technology lets you, your vendors, and customers get access to your files without a VPN, anywhere they are, with all the engineering functionality you expect from a workflow and Cloud document management system.
Unlike on-premise systems, Cloud document management software doesn’t require you to supply or maintain your own servers, making it a cheaper, more secure, and more scalable solution for growing businesses. Cloud document management software also promotes collaboration, as users can access the software from any device, office, or field or production location. eQuorum’s Cloud document management solution now has two Cloud options: a subscription SaaS or a licensed private cloud (See ImageSite Private Cloud).

Access anywhere, any time
Get access to files from anywhere, any time! No longer are users constrained to having to be in the office to get the files they need. This means access from home, work sites, the production floor, any time of day. A huge improvement in work productivity happens during periods that have traditionally been down time.
Workflow
The Cloud is a great tool for ensuring workflows are accomplished in real-time, as actions, decisions, and reports are accessible to all participants as they happen, increasing the speed and quality of decisions. Fewer mistakes and wrong turns result when all workflow participants are using the same information, the same versions, and can see the same markups and redlines.
No client software
There's no software or mobile app to download! Get to the cloud document management system by simply using the device’s browser, regardless of the device operating system or browser software, without needing to download and maintain client software or mobile apps. There is no deployment required; the system can be utilized almost immediately.
Security
Engine-Box offers industry-leading security and backup. Infrastructure security is typically improved as the system is hosted on a Tier 1 outsourced platform provider with some of the world's best intrusion prevention, software and hardware backup, and virus and malware protection.
Collaboration
Forget having to send hard copies around to get responses, or sending files by email and not knowing where they end up. With Engine-Box, users can collaborate, in real-time, from anywhere, by viewing, redlining simultaneously, and printing the same files.
Subscription pricing
Rather than pay for licenses that may not be used in the future, subscription pricing lets organizations only pay for the user access they need. When project-oriented work is required, subscriptions can be acquired for the term of the project. The lower annual cost of subscriptions can also reduce the hit to the company’s capital budget.
No Infrastructure
With Engine-Box there is no infrastructure to maintain. The advantage of cloud systems is that it's managed by the solution provider and its IT staff. This reduces hardware and software requirements, many hours of IT support, and all those calls to IT to help with software they have little knowledge of.
Licensed Private Cloud
If you want to own your licenses but don't want the hassle of implementing and managing your infrastructure, we have the perfect solution.

Licensed Private Cloud
If you want to own your licenses but don't want the hassle of implementing and managing your infrastructure, we have the perfect solution.
With a Licensed Private Cloud you get all the functionality of Engine-Box.com but you own the licenses, and we provide the hardware and software on AWS. For ITAR and FedRAMP requirements, we also offer a GovCloud option.
