SeedDMS

SeedDMS is an open source document management system that organizes files, manages revisions, and controls access through a web interface.

About SeedDMS

SeedDMS runs on a LAMP stack and stores documents in a MySQL or MariaDB database, with files kept on the filesystem. It supports version control, full-text search, document locking, and custom metadata fields. Users can set workflow states, assign review and approval tasks, and manage permissions per document or folder.

It integrates with LDAP and Active Directory for authentication, and supports multiple languages. The software is written in PHP and can be extended with plugins. SeedDMS is maintained by Uwe Steinmann and the community. It started as a fork of LetoDMS and has been in active development since 2012.

The tool works on any Linux server with Apache or nginx, PHP, and a MySQL database. It is released under the GPLv2 license and is free to use. Organizations looking for self-hosted document control without per-user licensing costs often choose SeedDMS.
