SimpleLegal, a modern legal operations software provider, today announced the addition of optical character recognition (OCR) to its document management system (DMS).
The new OCR feature allows users to read and search text characters of digitized files in an image format, providing thorough document searching and easier collaboration.
Documents are critical to legal practice, and corporate legal departments must have an effective document management system to be more efficient, increase productivity and mitigate risk.

Customers can find the information they need without uploading files into multiple systems or working from incorrect document versions.
