Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Learn more about IRIS Document Management, the service it provides, and more with our frequently asked questions.

A client portal – sometimes referred to as a self-service portal, or client platform – is a secure online space where clients can log-in and access their information.

With IRIS Document Management, you can use your client portal to securely share documents and data with your client. Clients can use their unique log-in information to gain access to their portal, allowing them to browse, amend, edit or sign documents.

Our self-service client portals are customizable, so you can wrap them in your company branding (so your client sees it as an extension of your firm’s service).

Our document management software solutions include built-in PDF Editors, allowing you to open, edit, and amend PDFs.

This means you don’t need to pay for an Adobe license (or any of the additional features).

Being able to control who can access sensitive data can help you keep your clients and your firm safe. A document management system with CRM functionality can be used to limit or restrict access to certain documents and files.

You can determine which users have restricted access, and to what extent. It can be as simple or as complex as you need, for multiple users and user groups.

Automatic routing (or auto-routing) is a feature found in some document management solutions. It continually monitors folders on your system for new documents, and can be programmed to automatically perform tasks like:

  • Renaming a file (typically using a pre-programmed naming convention)
  • Splitting pages of documents into multiple PDFs
  • Publishing documents to client portals and sending out an automated alert
  • Adding the document to a workflow

OCR stands for optical character recognition. Sometimes referred to as text recognition, OCR is used to read, extract and repurpose data from a scanned document.

When a typed, handwritten or printed document is scanned, it’s scanned as an image. OCR technology electronically converts the image of the words on the page into text that can be read by a computer, such as you’d find when you type into a word processor.
