Document Management with Tags in Krawler

I really love the Project Management and Document Management aspect of the platform. Believe me, after using tagging in social web sites, it’s really difficult for me to use document management systems at my workplace as they are not that search friendly. You could only search based on titles of the document. The document management aspect of Krawler provided tagging to your documents and is really wonderful. If you are looking out for a social platform, I would strongly recommend the Social Platform from Krawler Networks.
