The implementation of electronic document management in organizations raises many questions even today, in the era of active development of new technologies.
In this material, we will debunk the 3 most popular myths that implementers of EDMS often face in their work.

Myth #1. "Electronic document management is complicated."
"We are so used to it. Our employees won't be able to adapt. We need to restructure our work and learn everything from scratch," – this is what is often said about transitioning to an electronic document format.

The Documentolog service is designed to make your work faster and more convenient. You use the EDMS to save your time, not to add new tasks to your standard routine. The digital format allows you to spend less time processing documents.
Simple processes, a simple interface, everything is intuitive and straightforward.
Our service also includes virtual step-by-step instructions to help employees get accustomed at the initial stage.
For a complete immersion in the service's capabilities, there is the online school Academy Documentolog. With its help, you can understand the product and learn all the nuances of working with the system.

Myth #2. "Electronic document management is expensive."
We love to speak in numbers. Just calculate how much money you spend annually on purchasing paper, envelopes, and organizing storage. Don't forget to include printer maintenance and courier services.
An additional aspect to consider when calculating benefits is the optimization of employee time, speeding up all processes, and eliminating so-called downtimes.
Electronic document management is an investment that will definitely pay off.

Moreover, our service offers different tariff options – Documentolog Free, Documentolog Business, and Documentolog Platform, which differ in functionality. You can start using the most basic and simple version right now.
The Documentolog Free tariff is completely free. Register and start working immediately. We are confident that you will appreciate all the advantages.

Myth #3. "Implementing electronic document management takes a long time."
Typically, our clients believe that implementing electronic document management in their field of activity is time-consuming and complicated. Almost every customer says this, but trust our experience, this is often a misconception.
The Documentolog service has ready-made configurations. Usually, most users only need the standard functions of the Documentolog Business tariff and individual customization is not required. You can start working in the service the same day.
If you do need to adapt business processes on the Documentolog Platform tariff, our specialists will implement this functionality in a short time – from 1 week depending on the complexity of the task.
Transitioning from paper to an electronic document flow is simple. Successfully tested by hundreds of thousands of users.

Strengthening Compliance with Labor Legislation in 2026: What Kazakhstan Employers Need to Know

In 2026, Kazakhstan is strengthening control over compliance with labor legislation. One of the key regulatory instruments is the Unified System for Recording Employment Contracts (USREC), operating on the enbek.kz platform. Government authorities are moving toward stricter administration: from March 2026, administrative liability will be introduced for violations of the procedure for entering information on employment contracts into the USREC. This means employers must proactively establish correct processes for registering and maintaining HR documentation to avoid fines and legal risks.
