ds32.office extends the archiving capabilities of DataStore32 still further, by providing the capability to archive and retrieve Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint ) and PDF format documents ,directly from the desktop application. Documents may be archived singularly, as and when generated, or the process may be automated to archive the entire contents of a folder for example.

ds32.office indexing may be completed automatically by inheriting the attributes of the document when created - profile, date, author, subject, time etc., - or alternatively additional index information may be added manually. Documents are stored in their native format, without conversion.

Whilst many enterprises back-up desk-top applications to tape for example, restoring that information can be extremely consuming in terms of both time and resource. ds32.office enables Users to immediately retrieve any archived document, irrespective of source.

For a complete integrated archival and retrieval solution, Hitec have combined ds32.imaging with ds32.office and ds32.mail to form OfficeStore.
