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.

You're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I've ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Tear us apart
Baby, I would rather be dead


Simply the best. Better than all the rest.


This plugin just works out of the box and doesn't everything I need it to do!



Thank you to the awesome developers that build and maintain it!


Awesome plugin! Just works!


I've been using this plugin for a few years and it is nice to see the enhancements that have been made recently. I also want to say thank you to M Aqib Khan from the support team. I found an issue with a recent update and connecting with Google. I was able to provide a screen recording and the development team got back to me quickly and resolved the issue.


Easy to use and very functional
