Digitize Your Documents for Better Storage and Access

Many businesses or offices need shredding services because they are digitizing their documents, and they need to destroy the hard copies. You may wonder if it’s worth the effort of scanning and disposing of all of those documents. If you’re doing it yourself, that would certainly be worth asking. However, you can save a lot of time and effort by letting our team at Flash Photo digitize your documents for you.

 

Does your documentation need to move into the digital age? Here’s how digitizing your documents will make your life easier.

 

Better Organization in Less Space

Organizing digital files is much easier than physical documents. You can arrange them by name, date, size, or any other number of characteristics. Sorting them into virtual folders is simple, and you can tag them with various keywords to cross-reference them easily. Finding the document you need is also easy because you can search for a certain file without flicking through endless paper.

Digital documents also take up much less space in your office. In fact, they take up no physical space at all. All you need is a hard drive with enough storage to hold all your files.

 

Improved Security and Preservation

You can easily protect digital documents with encryption, passwords, and access controls. These features reduce the risk of unauthorized access or loss compared to physical copies that can be lost, stolen, or damaged. You can also easily back up and replicate digital files in multiple locations, so you can easily access them anywhere and protect against theft or damage. Paper also degrades over time, which is not an issue with digital files. Hard drives can become corrupted, but backing up your files in multiple locations protects against losing your files that way.

 

Easier Editing and Collaboration

Editing and updating digital files is much simpler than dealing with hard copies. If you work remotely, you can upload your digital files to the cloud so you can access them wherever you are. You can also easily collaborate with your coworkers if you can all access a file at the time rather than making edits separately and sending it back and forth.
