Is VMG DMS cloud-based, on-premises, or both?
Our DMS system can be cloud-based or on-premises, which lets you access your data securely from anywhere, reduces infrastructure overhead, and ensures updates/maintenance are handled centrally.

How long does implementation take?
Depending on size and complexity (number of locations, existing data to migrate, extent of customisation), typical deployment takes X-Y weeks. We work closely with you so rollout is smooth.
How does pricing and billing work?
Pricing is based on [number of users / modules / features / locations]. There may be setup fees or cost for customised modules. Maintenance, updates and support are included / or offered under a support plan.
Can I try VMG products before buying it?
Yes — we offer a free demo (or trial) so you can test core features first, see how it fits in your workflow, and make sure it meets your needs before you commit.
