History


Established in 1999, NetDocuments is a web-based document and email management service delivered through SaaS. The founders of NetDocuments include the same team that developed SoftSolutions in the late 1980s before being bought by WordPerfect in 1994.
The company was founded by Kenneth and Lee Duncan, and Alvin Tedjamulia. Kenneth Duncan served as CEO until 2014. NetDocuments is Ken Duncan's second document management company after having founded SoftSolutions in the late 1980s. SoftSolutions was sold to WordPerfect in 1994. WordPerfect was subsequently sold to Novell, which did not continue the SoftSolutions document management system but did, however, use the SoftSolutions technology in its GroupWise offering.
In August 2006, NetDocuments developed an integration with Salesforce.com.
In March 2008, NetDocuments embedded Fast Search and Transfer of Microsoft into its service to expand its search functionality.

In 2021, the company was chosen by the United States Attorney’s office as their cloud-management platform.
In 2022, the company released PatternBuilder, a “document and workflow automation tool that enables law firms, legal teams, and the public sector to automate their expertise and processes so they can be repeated predictably.”




Partnerships & acquisitions
