Put your back office ahead of the pack with FileHound edu!
Although some MIS platforms offer basic file store features, they typically do not meet the needs of school back offices.
Documents become hard to find, organise and manage. This leads to unstructured data, unnecessary file retention and duplication.
FileHound edu synchronises with your school MIS system and eliminates manual data entry when indexing documents.
This makes file & retrieval of important student and staff documents far easier and more efficient.
Schools often retain large volumes of legacy paper-based documents, making subject access requests (SAR) a slow and laborious task.
Reducing reliance on paper storage and filing cabinets saves costs and space, while eliminating the risk of loss or damage.
FileHound edu offers packages to assist your school in digitising paper-based archive documents, as well as options to migrate existing files from shared drives or MIS.
FileHound features automatic retention policies, so documents are stored only as long as required for compliance.
School administrators and back-office teams work hard to manage a range of manual, day-to-day document processes.
Designing and implementing a more efficient, simple and secure document process can be an overwhelming task.
FileHound edu provides tools that can standardise document processes, workflows and legal compliance.
FileHound comes with a host of valuable, time-saving features including auto filing, secure sharing capabilities, and complete control over who has access to what.

It’s never been easier to gain control over your school’s important documents.
