Document management aligned with ENS Medium, ISO 27001 and GDPR

Dokuflex is a DMS built for regulated sectors (banking, healthcare, public sector and energy). The platform is aligned with Spain's National Security Framework (ENS) at Medium category and follows the CCN-STIC guidelines published by the CCN-CERT for Spanish public administrations. This simplifies bidding for public-sector tenders that invoke article 156 of the Spanish Public Sector Contracts Act (LCSP).

On information security, Dokuflex meets the requirements of ISO 27001: AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.2+ in transit, key management, environment segregation and per-document auditable access logs (who, when and from which IP viewed, edited or downloaded each file). All logs are immutable and exportable for audit.

On data protection, Dokuflex complies with the EU GDPR (Regulation 2016/679) and Spain's LOPDGDD 3/2018: data hosted in EU data centres, support for data-subject rights, anonymisation and configurable legal retention by policy (archive period plus automatic secure deletion at expiry). The DMS is complemented by qualified electronic signature and time-stamping compliant with EU Regulation 910/2014 (eIDAS) and Spain's Law 6/2020 on electronic trust services.

Dokuflex vs DocuWare

DocuWare is a historic European DMS reference with a strong focus on electronic invoicing and compliance (ISO 27001, German tax regulations). Its biggest strengths are brand recognition and a wide partner network, but its pricing is opaque and migration is usually quoted as a separate multi-month project. Dokuflex offers equivalent functional coverage (IDP, legal retention, evidentiary value) with transparent published pricing, migration included within a week, native English and Spanish support and BPM low-code integrated at no extra licence. For EU companies that want agility, EU data sovereignty and a local partner rather than a German vendor with a sales network, Dokuflex is the natural DocuWare alternative.

Dokuflex vs M-Files

M-Files bets on a metadata-driven model (no folders), deep Microsoft 365 integration and a proprietary AI classification engine. It is an excellent fit for organisations that live inside M365, but its product is not fully localised for the Spanish market, ES support is limited and pricing is partner-dependent. Dokuflex blends enriched metadata with traditional folder views (which shortens user adoption) and adds native low-code BPM at no extra cost. For mid-market EU companies that need ENS audit alignment, native Spanish support and a short onboarding, Dokuflex is more practical.

Dokuflex vs Athento

Athento is the most direct Spanish competitor: it shares the ENS, ISO 27001 and intelligent-capture focus and works extensively with public administrations. The main difference is functional scope: Athento centres on capture and archiving, while Dokuflex also embeds low-code BPM, qualified electronic signature and a VERI*FACTU e-invoicing module in the same platform. That avoids stitching three separate tools to cover DMS plus workflow plus signature. For buyers that have already evaluated Athento and want to extend beyond the archive, Dokuflex is more complete at a comparable total cost.

Frequently asked questions

What we hear most often

Which file formats does Dokuflex support?

PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images, CAD, email, audio, video and 200+ additional formats. Automatic indexing with OCR for scanned documents.

Can I migrate from network folders or SharePoint?

Yes. Migration tools for network folders, SharePoint, Drive, Dropbox, Alfresco and other DMS platforms. A typical full migration takes less than 1 week.

Is it GDPR-compliant with legal access control?

Yes. Aligned with ISO 27001 and ENS Medium, encryption at rest and in transit, auditable per-document access logs. Legal retention configurable by policy.

Do the documents have evidentiary value?

Yes. Qualified time-stamping and SHA-256 hashing guarantee integrity. Documents are valid in any audit or inspection.

Can I edit without downloading the document?

Yes. Collaborative editing in the browser with Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Google Docs. Automatic versioning and change tracking.

What is the difference between OCR and IDP?

OCR (Optical Character Recognition) turns a scanned image or PDF into plain text: it detects characters and converts them into indexable strings. IDP (Intelligent Document Processing) goes one step further: on top of OCR, it classifies the document type (invoice, contract, delivery note...), extracts key fields with AI models without templates and routes each document to the right process. Dokuflex includes native OCR and IDP inside the same DMS — not separate modules and not additional licences.

Is a digitally signed document archived in Dokuflex legally valid?

Yes. Dokuflex meets the requirements of EU Regulation 910/2014 (eIDAS) and Spain's Law 6/2020 on electronic trust services. Qualified time-stamping and SHA-256 hashing on the file guarantee integrity and identity, so the document is treated as documentary evidence admissible in court under article 326 of the Spanish Civil Procedure Act (LEC), without the need for expert verification when the signature is qualified.

How much does it cost to migrate from network folders or SharePoint?

Standard migration from network folders, SharePoint, Drive or Dropbox is included in onboarding at no extra cost and is typically completed in under 1 week for volumes up to 1M documents. If the source repository has custom metadata, complex permissions or requires specific mappings to BPM workflows, a fixed-price add-on is scoped separately. In all cases a document-by-document reconciliation report is delivered.

Does Dokuflex run on-premise or only in the cloud?

Both options. Dokuflex is offered as SaaS cloud with data hosted in the European Union (the recommended model for most customers, with continuous updates and managed SLA) and also on-premise for regulated sectors or customers with strict data-sovereignty policies. Functionality is identical in both deployment modes: same DMS, same BPM, same IDP and same electronic-signature layer.
