CtrlSync

CtrlSync is an M-Files vault application that keeps documents in step between an M-Files vault and SharePoint or Microsoft Teams. A vault administrator configures it; after that it runs on a schedule without anyone driving it.

The problem it solves is that people work where the conversation is. A project’s documents belong in M-Files, with its versioning and permissions, but the people editing them are in a Teams channel. CtrlSync lets both be true: a document lives in the vault, appears in the channel, and changes made in either place end up in the other.
