CRM Documents

Centralised document management for storing, organising, and sharing files

The CRM Documents module in InvestGlass provides a centralised document management system for storing, organising, and sharing files across your organisation. This module ensures that all business-critical documents are accessible, version-controlled, and securely stored within the Swiss sovereign cloud.

Document Organisation


Create a logical folder structure that reflects your business processes. Common structures include folders for client documents, compliance records, templates, marketing materials, and internal policies. Use tags for cross-cutting categorisation that spans multiple folders.


Best Practices


Establish clear naming conventions for documents and folders. Set appropriate access permissions to protect sensitive information. Regularly archive outdated documents to keep the active library manageable. Use the Client Portal to share documents securely with external parties.
