What is a Document Management System (DMS)?
A DMS is a program used to create, store, take out and put away documents in a virtual library. Typically your projects (one or more documents and folders) are no longer stored on your local computer, but on one central computer accessed by many users over a network. Projects are only stored on your computer as you take them out of this library. It gives all users secure access to the projects they need without the hassle of having to manage the storage and backup of those projects themselves. DocHaven expands this metaphor for personal users by allowing the whole DMS to run on one computer without the need for a network or servers.
