ToolDocs


As the developer of the ToolDocs™ Document Management System, I’m excited to finally make it available to the public.



This is a tool we’ve built, refined, and used with our clients for the past 15 years. It was created to solve a common problem: companies often gate documents without really knowing who is downloading them, when they’re doing it, or what they do next.



ToolDocs™ gives you that visibility. You can track who downloads your documents, see when they engage, follow their path through your website, whitelist specific files, and even gate links to external resources like videos, demos, or third-party content.



With the SalesDashboard™ add-on, your team can also see deeper user activity and better understand each visitor’s experience.



It’s more than document management. ToolDocs™ gives companies practical sales and marketing insight, similar to what you might expect from larger platforms like HubSpot or Salesforce, but in a simpler, more focused, and far more affordable solution.


ToolDocs™ is an Incredible Tool for Document Management & Lead Generation

A document management plugin that provides ungated, persistent permalinks for your uploaded documents.
