Make M‑Files easier to use every day
Your people work in M‑Files, with Teams and Microsoft Office open beside it. Our add-ons give each job its own screen in M‑Files, and keep what people write there in the vault. Each one runs on every M‑Files edition, in M‑Files Cloud or on-premise.
Every record gets the screen its job needs
CtrlPortals is set up around your own records, for quality, projects, sales or anything else in M‑Files. Open a customer, a project or a document and everything about it is on one page. Charts read the vault itself, and any bar opens the records behind it.
Ask your vault in plain words
Ask how many there are, which ones or what has changed, and CtrlScout finds the records, counts and charts them, summarises the documents and drafts an email. An answer names the documents it read, and a count shows what it counted. It sees only what the person asking may see, and the AI model runs in Europe unless you choose otherwise.
Write it together in Microsoft Office
With CtrlShare, colleagues and people outside the company work on the same M‑Files document at the same time, in Microsoft Office on the desktop or in the browser. When they are done, it comes back to M‑Files as a new version, with its history and permissions.
Show your people how the work is done
Process maps drawn in Elements.cloud appear in M‑Files, where people work from them. Each step leads to the approved procedure behind it, the cases still open and the form that starts a new one, so the work starts on the map.
More add-ons for everyday M‑Files work
Keep Teams and SharePoint files in the vault with their metadata, and record hours on the customer or project they belong to.

M‑Files details, right inside Teams and Outlook
