The benefits of digital repositories include the following:
* Raise the quality of research output by classifying and providing research, information and supporting statistics.
* Encourage researchers in Oman to share their intellectual production and increase the level of awareness of scientific communication between researchers.
* Serve as a central archive for Oman's production, which will increase the propagation, access rate, reference citations, and the Impact Factor in the Sultanate through a unified site that connects all research institutions in the region with the international community.
* Cooperation between individuals, Omani academic research institutions, intellectual and cultural organizations in order to support and participate in academic research, accessed through one electronic portal.
* Communicate and observe new research results with colleagues, which will result in greater scientific knowledge accumulation and the feedback and comments known as informal evaluation.
* Cooperation with local and international academic organizations and government institutions, as well as with local, global, and regional databases to obtain experiences.
*Capacity building in the Sultanate for database design and high- and low-cost, electronically available quality management.
