Defined by its entrepreneurial culture, Soave Enterprises is comprised of a diverse set of 300-plus companies ranging from luxury condominiums along Florida’s coast, to Kansas City-based Mercedes-Benz retailers and a master planned residential community near Washington, D.C. Current holdings also encompass a prized collection of real estate investments, industrial services, and facility management companies, as well as hydroponic greenhouse operations.

Converting paper documents into electronic documents and retaining them for easy and remote access was top priority for Soave, and the company wanted a solution that would not only address their current needs, but also be robust enough to roll out the solution one business process at a time and scale with the company as it grows.
