Alfresco as a DMS

[scotty_beamer]

Hello!

I am brand new and i just started installing alfresco an hour ago so be patient! 😉

1. What is the diverence between "Community Edition" and "Business Edition" when it comes to DMS ?
I found a side telling me about the diverences but i did not get any info about real features i can not use in "Community Edition"

2. In first place we would like to user alfresco as a DMS for contracts only ( noting more). How to do that ?
I found Dokumentarchive and also a possibility to upload file there and in Repository but i am not sure what would be the right way to do it. Also i am not sure how to category file. A small howto would be nice.
I also found some videos but not a real "best prectice" to do it !
Any hint will be welcome!

Alfresco Explorer: http://<servernameort>/alfresco
Alfresco Share: http://<servernameort>/share

As Jeff said, both webapps access the same repository. Alfresco Share is the latest development based on another technology communicating to the repository thru REST/HTTP. It a matter of taste which one to choose but of course you have to know which one is referenced in the documentation 😉
