But the COVID-19 pandemic thwarted this plan.DocuWorld User Conference 2020 was cancelled, and the DocuWorld Partner Conference 2020 was held virtually over two days. In total, over 1450 people from about 45 countries attended online.

The keynote event for all DocuWare Sales Partners from Europe, the Middle East, Africa and the Asia-Pacific region opened on Wednesday morning by DocuWare Group President Max Ertl (responsible for Sales & Marketing) and David Mills, CEO Ricoh Europe. The keynote "Digital Transformation and DocuWare" was then delivered jointly by presidents Max Ertl and Dr. Michael Berger (responsible for Products, Services and Finance).

Max Ertl thanked the partners for their commitment and highlighted last year's successes. Michael Berger reported on last year's growth in the Cloud, but also confirmed that the On Premises version will continue to be offered. He outlined the challenges that the company has overcome since its foundation in 1988 and is expressed his conviction that it will be emerge from the current crisis stronger than before
