eQuorum Named Top 10 Best Document Management System Provider of 2018

Helping Businesses Grow with Industry Leading Technology

We might plan building a house alone, but to actually build the house requires many hands. Similarly, to build a business we need a team, and to make it efficient and successful in every perspective, we need to have a selected team of partners who will go that extra mile for the customers; give the necessary effort and take the business to new and redefined heights. One such company doing this is eQuorum Corporation, a top 10 document management system provider, and Georgia-based Corporation, and a privately held technology firm that was spun out of Byers Engineering Company (as CADNET Corporation) in 1996, after operating as an independent profit center for 9 years.

In 1999, the company changed its name to eQuorum Corporation after its merger with Image Machines Corporation, a Virginia-based company. Both companies were respected in their particular markets—CADNET was well known for its productivity-boosting printing and plotting solutions, whereas Image Machines was recognized for its raster editing, imaging and document management solutions.
