History
In 2006 two developers with experience in commercial J2EE products decided to start a business called Logical Objects, with the mission to maintain and evolve the Open Source project Contineo. After one year, Logical Objects decided to branch the old project and to start a completely new product called LogicalDOC.
In mid-2008, the first release of LogicalDOC was made available at SourceForge. The first release was numbered 3.6 in order to continue the numeration from the old project.
In the 2010 LogicalDOC won the Infoworld Bossie Awards in category: best open source applications.
In the 2015 Logical Objects changed its business name to LogicalDOC, the same name of the product.
In the 2016 LogicalDOC won the CMS Critic Awards in category: Best Document Management System.
In the 2017 LogicalDOC was included by QNAP Systems, Inc. in the applications store of the QNAP devices that supports QTS v4.3 and more recent.

General features
A document management system manages personal documents or business documentation, making it easier to find a previous document version.
