Document management solutions

[Vikram C.]

Do any of you have a recommendation for a good document management solution for my real estate invoices, insurance policies and other documents? I want to be able to scan every single document and store it in an electronic format so that it can be retrieved from anywhere. The solution will also need some method of categorizing the documents (by city and property, for example). Being able to search, as in gmail, would be great but is not a deal-breaker.

I have heard that Docusoft is good but it seems like something designed for large companies and I am looking for something simpler but equally effective.

I store all of my real estate documents on an SVN repository. I carry around my files on my flash drive and on any computer I can sync up to a central server.

With SVN you can have multiple individuals read / write to this repository and you can access the files anywhere you have an internet connection.

It also has nice features like roll back to a previous versions of files and see who made changes to what sections of files etc.
