How much time does your team lose searching for documents?

📅 06/10/2025

How much time do your employees spend each day searching for the right version of a document? According to a McKinsey study, that adds up to an average of 1.8 hours per workday per employee. In a team of 25 employees, that quickly adds up to dozens of working hours lost every week.

How does a Document Management System help?

A DMS like Ishtar365 ensures that your documents are:

✅ stored centrally and securely,

✅ found in seconds thanks to metadata,

✅ always available in the correct version,

✅ and easily shared without creating chaos in emails or Teams channels.

With a DMS, your employees save a lot of time searching for files – time they can spend on other, more valuable tasks.

By choosing a full ECM solution like Ishtar365, you can achieve up to 40% efficiency gains — just in document management alone. And that’s not even coun ting the additional benefits of workflow automation and portal communication.

Why keep struggling with scattered documents and wasted time when you can start today with a solution that grows with your business?

From DMS to ECM – grow at your pace

Ishtar365 is more than a traditional DMS. It’s an Enterprise Content Management (ECM) platform that combines document management with workflow automation and portal communication. The best part is that you can start small with DMS and later expand to ECM, depending on your company’s needs.

With ECM, you gain extra efficiency through:

approval flows that run automatically,

information sharing with both internal and external stakeholders through portals,

and much stronger management of your Microsoft 365 environment.

With ECM, you don’t just save search time — you also reduce errors, speed up processes, and collaborate much more intelligently.

Benefits for your business

The math is simple: an employee loses on average 1.8 hours per day searching for information. With ECM, you can reduce that by up to 40% — that’s about 45 minutes per employee, per day. Add in the extra efficiency from workflows and portals, and the return becomes even greater.

“The ROI of ECM doesn’t come from one single advantage, but from a combination of time savings, lower costs, better collaboration, and reduced risk. Enterprise Content Management isn’t an IT cost — it’s a strategic investment. It makes organizations smarter, faster, and ready for an AI-driven future.”

Ishtar365 isn’t a cost — it’s an investment that quickly pays for itself.
