What are "Backfile" scanning services?

Backfile scanning services, also known as backfile conversion, is the act of digitizing and indexing large volumes of documents and storing them in a searchable digital archive. Many companies choose to integrate the images into their business systems, such as document management or enterprise content management software.

Why digitize your legacy documents?

Prior to many companies, government agencies, and institutions implementing initiatives to go "paperless", they amassed thousands, if not, millions of records stored on media such as microfiche, microfilm, aperture cards and/or paper. These volumes of records are often stored in file rooms, basements, or off-site warehouse facilities making them difficult and sometimes costly to access and at-risk of being lost, damaged, or destroyed.
