M-Files acquires Hubshare

M-Files has acquired Hubshare to bolster external content sharing and collaboration and deliver an improved digital client experience.

Hubshare offers a secure digital workplace portal that enhances user and client engagement through collaborative working, secure file sharing, and project management. 

M-Files connects siloed systems, applications and repositories and provides a full view to all relevant information across an organization. Delivering connected content and intelligent automation, M-Files increases the productivity of knowledge workers, ensures a seamless digital experience, enables business continuity, and reduces business risk.  

Now part of the M-Files product portfolio, the Hubshare secure information exchange platform enables companies to drive digitalization and improve the customer experience using branded, customizable client portals, which can be tailored to meet individual client needs, driving collaboration and productivity.

"The Hubshare acquisition helps us deliver a unique digital client experience and better serve knowledge worker industries such as professional services, where information sharing and external collaboration are critical requirements," said Antti Nivala, founder and CEO at M-Files. "Our integrated offering takes M-Files from the back office to the frontline of our customer's business, helping provide a digital window for our customer's clients as they drive digitization across the organizations they serve." 

Unlike typical file sync-based document portal solutions where information is copied from an enterprise content repository, M-Files now offers a secure and integrated solution for internal and external collaboration without data duplication. While the M-Files user experience is optimized for streamlining internal document management processes, the new Hubshare hub in M-Files provides key information such as documents, people, processes, discussions and more to external users, such as clients, via a branded portal that is optimized for an improved external user experience. This helps strengthen customer satisfaction with a better and more compliant collaboration experience.

"Our combined offering will undoubtedly benefit organizations across the globe seeking a more secure and integrated solution for internal and external collaboration,” Nicholas Child, CEO, Hubshare. "We are delighted to be an integral part of the M-Files journey, delivering our digital client experience and collaborative workspace solution alongside the visionary M-Files intelligent information management platform."
