Unsolved Cloud based Document Management System
-
Sharepoint seems like the obvious choice here, not cheap but designed like exactly for this.
-
Alfresco would work well, I've never interacted with a hosted / cloud Alfresco, but I assume that it exists.

To do the case number generation, is that a work flow?

Yes, that would be the most common approach for that.

Ive used https://macroview365.com/case-matter-legal-sharepoint-dm/ which connects to SharePoint or there is another product from them for o365 and has plugins for MS office. Takes care of case number, files by date, user etc. Might be useful!

It does. They used to have a 10 GB free version but sadly stopped new sign ups for it.
I’ve never paid for it but I’m assuming it’s like the one I have for free.

Any honest document management system in the cloud is big bucks. The law firm that I worked at for 7 years, and I just left last October was looking into this. It was going to cost $80,000 for them to move over to a really nice cloud system. Then about $20,000 yearly fees. Talking about 13 million documents and about 1.5 TB of current data. I believe it was called NetDocuments.

NetDocs and LaserFiche came up in another forum. I have to try to find a SharePoint developer to see how they compare.

For small clients, go with Wordpress + plugins or the alternatives of WP.

I reached out to them today and they are quite reasonable in price in my opinion. They have plugins for Word and Outlook that are intuitive and they have consultants that will take care of the customization for you. That's my issue with SharePoint is that I would have to find a SharePoint consultant.
