Trusted for over 30 years by leading enterprises
Your documents,
Digitally preserved.
For over 30 years, iGuana has helped organizations worldwide with digitization, document management, and secure archiving. Our iGuana iDM suite is an enterprise document management system for scanning, storage, workflow, and compliance -- trusted by hospitals, banks, governments, and enterprises across Belgium, the Netherlands, and wider Europe.
Iguanas have a third eye. Literally.
On top of their head sits a parietal eye. A photoreceptor that keeps detecting light and motion, even when the regular eyes close. Always watching, always aware of what changes in the environment around them.
iGuana iDM works on the same principle. Every change, every access, every download is written to an auditable trail. When the NIS2 inspector or GDPR auditor comes knocking, your answer is already there.
Iguanas see more than you. Literally.
Their eyes are tetrachromatic and register light well into the ultraviolet range. Colour nuances and patterns we are blind to. What looks like a blank sheet to us, an iguana sees as a surface full of detail.
iGuana iDM works on the same principle. OCR, handwriting recognition, and full-text indexing read what seems invisible: every invoice name, every contract number, every handwritten note. You type three words. From ten years of archives, the document you need appears.
An iguana loses its tail without a second thought.
In the face of danger, the tail breaks off on its own, a defence mechanism called autotomy. The predator walks away with the discarded piece, the iguana escapes, and a new tail grows back within months. Nothing is ever truly lost.
iGuana iDM works on the same principle. Every change is preserved version by version, every deleted document is recoverable, every ransomware attack is reversible. Accidentally overwritten, removed, or encrypted? One click, the old version is back. As if it never happened.
Iguanas live twenty years. Two office generations.
The green iguana reaches 15 to 20 years in captivity, longer than nearly any other lizard. An iguana that joins you today will still be around when you retire.
iGuana iDM works on the same principle. Notarial deeds, medical records, and building plans each require 30-year retention. Our retention schedules keep documents available for as long as the law demands, and destroy them automatically the moment it no longer permits. You forget. We don't.
