Document Imaging Backup: The Comfort of Multiple Copies

As we've blogged about before, document imaging technology is too often portrayed as a series of mysterious acronyms--ECM this, BPO that, and MFP the other.

This can unfortunately defer some busy small business owners from realizing the real and immediate benefits a document imaging solution can bring to their operations.

One of the most convincing of these real and immediate benefits is the ability to easily and cheaply create and maintain back up copies of important documents, without the wasted paper and office space of making and storing actual copies.

At first, such a job may seem daunting to take on. Years upon years of paper files are sitting in those filing cabinets, and you don't want any piece of that right now. This is when hiring a document scanning service makes a lot of sense.

A document scanning service can bring all that stuff into the digital world, and advise you about how to organize digital files for effective retrieval. Prices are by no means prohibitive and good value is available in this field.

Make sure to be involved, though, in the document imaging process, even if someone else is doing the actual scanning. Nobody knows how to organize your files like you do.

Not that you've done a perfect job of it, but you're still in charge.
