For financial services organizations, collecting and processing documents is a critical first step for new account opening, onboarding, due diligence, underwriting, and more. Yet, traditional methods—email, unsecured uploads, or outdated portals—often create confusion and missed steps, data risk, and poor client experiences. Egnyte’s Document Portal is designed to simplify and secure that process. It provides a custom-branded, external-facing portal where clients, vendors, or partners can upload required files directly into your Egnyte environment—complete with automated reminders, templates, and tracking.
To help your teams—from administrators configuring templates to client-facing staff managing day-to-day requests—we’ve gathered a collection of resources on setup, best practices, and daily use.
