Cloud-Based Document Management
Kenesto's cloud-based document management system provides secure storage and organization for engineering files. Designed specifically for CAD and technical documentation, it enables teams to access, share, and collaborate on projects from anywhere. The platform maintains data integrity while offering enterprise-grade security and scalability for growing organizations.
Version Control
Our version control system tracks all file changes and maintains complete audit trails. Users can easily access previous versions, compare modifications, and restore earlier iterations when needed. This feature prevents accidental overwrites and ensures teams always work with the most current documentation while maintaining a complete revision history.
Secure File Sharing
Kenesto's secure file sharing allows precise permission management for internal and external collaborators. Users can share documents with customizable access levels while maintaining encryption and compliance standards. The system supports secure collaboration with partners, suppliers, and remote team members without compromising data security.
CAD Integration
Our platform offers seamless integration with major CAD applications through the Kenesto Drive service. This allows direct file manipulation as if working on a local drive while maintaining cloud benefits. The integration supports popular engineering software, enabling smooth workflows without additional plugins or format conversions.
Remote Collaboration
Kenesto's remote collaboration tools enable distributed teams to work together effectively. Features include real-time document status tracking, file locking during edits, and integrated communication tools. These capabilities support geographically dispersed teams while maintaining the same efficiency as in-office collaboration through secure cloud infrastructure.
