Ademero's version control handles simultaneous edits intelligently. When multiple users work on the same document, each edit creates a new version automatically. If conflicting changes occur, our smart merge system detects the conflicts and presents both versions side-by-side for manual resolution. You can also use document locking to prevent simultaneous edits on critical documents during sensitive operations like contract negotiations or financial reporting.
No. Version history is immutable and tamper-proof. Once a version is created, it cannot be deleted or modified by anyone, including system administrators. This ensures complete audit integrity for compliance requirements. Only documents themselves can be deleted (with proper permissions), and even then, the complete version history is archived for the retention period specified in your organization's policies. You can configure legal hold to prevent deletion of specific documents during litigation or investigations.
With unlimited version storage, you can restore any version from any point in the document's history. Unlike competitors who limit storage to 30 or 90 days, Ademero keeps every version indefinitely (subject to your retention policies). Search the version history by date, author, or change description to find exactly the version you need. Restoring a previous version creates a new version (preserving the restoration in the audit trail) rather than overwriting history.
Yes! Ademero tracks versions for all file types including Microsoft Office documents (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), PDFs, images (PNG, JPG, TIFF), CAD files (DWG, DXF), videos, and more. For text-based formats like Word and Excel, you can see detailed line-by-line comparisons. For binary formats like PDFs and images, you can view side-by-side visual comparisons. Our system automatically extracts metadata changes and tracks document properties across versions.
Absolutely. Configure version control policies to match your workflow. Set automatic version creation on save, on check-in, or at scheduled intervals. Require version notes for major versions while allowing minor edits without notes. Set up approval workflows where major version changes require review before publishing. Create naming conventions for version labels that align with your project milestones. Export version reports for compliance audits. Integrate with your existing systems via our comprehensive API to trigger version creation from external applications.
