Detect & Avoid Creating Duplicate Content in M-Files

M-Files automatically detects if there are documents with identical file contents in a vault. M-Files shows the file content matches for existing and new documents. You can see only the duplicate files that you have rights to.

The duplicate files can have a different file name, different related objects, version history, permissions, workflow, and other document data when compared to each other. The duplicate detection works with all file types, for example text files, pictures, and ZIP files.
