Former Salesforce Executive to Drive Global Growth and Brand Leadership as M-Files Deepens Microsoft Partnership
Umbach brings a proven track record of driving double- and triple-digit revenue growth for leading technology companies through comprehensive marketing strategies.

M-Files is revolutionizing document management as the first vendor to offer native Microsoft 365 capabilities. This breakthrough solution cements M-Files as the clear choice for Microsoft 365 organizations seeking to maximize their Microsoft investments, ensuring smarter collaboration, automated governance, and measurable productivity gains. Umbach’s appointment underscores M-Files’ commitment to scaling this new joint offering and the Microsoft partnership worldwide and driving broader market adoption.
