Praxeva: Creating a User Friendly Document Management System Date:   Tuesday , April 30, 2013 Irrespective of the size of the organization, if its documents are not secured, it stands a chance to get paralyzed. Praxeva, a Document Management company understood this problem and thus built a product to solve key challenges of SME's with zero investment in IT infrastructure. With a mission to educate and improve the prevalent mind set of the customers, three childhood friends along with a seasoned IT veteran co-founded Praxeva in 2007 in Bangalore. The team strives to offer ECM (Enterprise Content Management) focused software products to businesses in order to enhance productivity and efficiency.

Being one of the early adopter of ECM on cloud in India, their Document Management System - WSM is one of the most advanced Software as a Service (SaaS.)
