Although we've blogged about document imaging and disaster recovery before, the topic deserves repeated looks because of how incredibly important it is:
Business owners who maintain hard copy files, and do not scan those documents and save them to another location, are quite literally risking the survival of their business should disaster strike.
Document imaging can save your bacon if your office gets hit by a fire, flood, or burglary incident. Could your business survive without those documents? Think about it even though it's unpleasant to even bring up the thought, because this is a serious matter.
There are a variety of reasons to work with a document imaging service provider, but the "insurance policy" aspect is perhaps the most powerful. In some cases, such as with financial or legal documents, document scanning helps business owners comply with actual laws about handling certain documents.
However, business decision-makers should not need a law to tell them that document protection in the event of a document-destroying disaster is as important as important gets.

If you're backing up your computer data but not making images of your documents, you really have the cart before the horse. Document scanning is that virtual safety net to keep your business intact.
