THE IMPORTANCE OF CHOOSING THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT WHEN GOING PAPERLESS EXTRACT Corporations cannot afford to go big on the software and skimp on the hardware that's necessary to facilitate a paperless office. ARTICLE CONTENT Because we live in such a digital age, it's easier than ever for entire corporations, no matter their size or industry, to go completely paperless. Computer technology enables individuals to access any type of file on anything from a tablet to a PC, such as a simple Word file or an electronic invoice. Moreover, there are countless options when it comes to reliable and cost-effective paperless document management software. Electronic document imaging programs are probably the most important part of the equation. From the first day of scanning papers into the computer system, employees at all levels are going to need to be able to navigate the software easily. Luckily, the best options available are easy to pick up and use for years to come. However, corporations cannot afford to go big on the software and skimp on the hardware that's necessary to facilitate a paperless office. For instance, managers should never choose a few runof-the-mill scanners and shredders in order to make electronic workflow a reality. The machines themselves need to be of a high quality, because after the original, tangible files are properly disposed of, there's no getting these back. Sarah Smith, an ISV Business Development guru at Fujitsu, wrote a terrific blog post on tips of choosing the right scanning device. She suggested not to use MFP (Multi-Function Printers) as it doesn’t serve the primary reasons of going paperless: to save time and save money. In her blog, she presented some important differences between a Scanner and an MFP and also explained the benefits of using Scanners. Moreover, many experts recommend that company leaders making the change to the digital realm pick scanners that include duplexers and sheet feeders to keep things organized and precise.
