What Is Digital Document Management?
Document management, or document imaging, is the practice of digitizing, indexing and archiving both paper and electronic documents for easy storage and retrieval. Quality electronic document management system helps you: 1.) Transform your paper filing system to enable greater information access. 2.) Promote information sharing enterprise-wide. 3.) Optimize your business processes to increase efficiency and productivity. 4.) Demonstrate regulatory compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA and other laws. 5.) Simplify records retention and destruction procedures. Thousands of organizations around the world use document imaging every day instead of paper filing systems or a shared file server where folders and files provide the only structure. While the file server might be cost effective for backing up documents, it ignores certain document management needs such as: controlling and monitoring changes in documents, making sure everyone is using the most updated templates, locking certain files, locating documents on the corporate network efficiently.
