(ISF) Document tracking software

Hello -

Does anyone have recommendations for document tracking software? We are
looking for something to help our HR director keep store, track, and
easily search resumes.

Thanks,

Windows allows you to search the contents of Word documents but if you want
something more organized there's an open source software that you can use
called DSpace. From the website "The DSpace digital repository system
captures, stores, indexes, preserves, and distributes digital research
material.". It may be more power than you need but it'll probably do what
you want.

Salesforce has HR recruiting modules (Donated to nonprofits)

if you want full text searching you can use some of the document management applications for salesforce:

This can be done with no license costs.

Hi Matt,

This is easily done with a SharePoint document library. Its OOTB (out
of the box) functionality. You can define all the metadata fields you
need... or use it straight out of the box .. It has built in indexing
(search), and can search on metadata and/or document content, including
PDF docs - full text.

Comes free with any windows server from 2003 forward - you may have to
download it tho. In early editions it was not including on the distros.
Customizable web interface .. pretty easy to use, with fast turnaround

Take a look at my post on how to build a Digital Asset Management (DAM)
system for photos. The tools are the same for documents. In fact, they
are better for documents -- more versatility in the interface for bulk
manipulation of the metadata. (with docs you can use an excel-like
interface or excel. With pictures, you cant.

See Http://Digitaldiner.org

Fair warning. It's on the longer side for a blog post.
