Sick of managing information with paper? You should be. People have been storing paper in filing cabinets for over 100 years. We’re in the digital age now, but while you send emails and listen to MP3s, people are still managing information by keeping paper in a metal box.
In a world where video, audio, mail, etc have all gone digital, it’s time for document management to follow suit. Digital document management systems already exist (we’re one of them), it’s just a matter of making the switch. With OfficeDrop alone, you can get existing paper online, and manage all of your information from our digital filing system. It’s nothing that has to happen overnight, and there are several ways you can start adapting your office to the digital world. Use the following list to see the ways you can ditch paper and start taking advantage of the digital office.
1. OfficeDrop Bulk Scanning
I know what you’re thinking – “we have too much paper to go digital.” But with OfficeDrop bulk document scanning that’s no longer an excuse. We’ve designed our service to let you get all of your paper scanned with the least amount of effort on your end. With our mail-based system, all you have to do is mail your documents to us in prepaid envelopes or boxes. We do all the scanning, converting and uploading, and you’ve got digital documents in just over a week.
2. Scan By Month
Even if you have most of your info in the digital office, unfortunately that won’t stop paper from landing on your desk. With OfficeDrop’s monthly subscription plan, we send you a number of prepaid envelopes per month so that you can convert paper as it flows into your office.
3. Upload Locally
The digital office wouldn’t be so great if you couldn’t get all of your digital files to the same place. With OfficeDrop’s digital filing system, you can easily upload files locally, or upload documents via email to your specific OfficeDrop address.
4. Self-Scan
Yet another option for getting your paper online, you can scan documents with your own personal scanner. With our free scanning software, ScanDrop, you can configure your scanner to scan, edit, and upload documents directly to OfficeDrop, Google Docs, or Evernote.
Welcome to the Digital Office
Now that you’re paper is digital, you can search, view, and organize everything in one secure, convenient online space. There’s no time searching through drawers and cabinets; you have a search bar that will pull up any document instantly. That’s the beauty of the digital office.
