Making the transition to using a document storage service will change and simplify the filing system at your office. The benefits are so numerous, that the question isn't really whether you should find a document storage service, but what sort of bonuses you can get out of the move. As more companies offering document management pop up across the country, many of them are offering special promotions to draw new clients. When searching for your businesses' new document management service, keep an eye out for solid promotional offers. GRM currently offers top-notch service and an added incentives like free pick-up and delivery and lower rates for your first month of service.

What is Document Management?

The idea of how an off-site document storage facility used to work was simple. Before the advent of digital storage, filing & retrieval systems the process was as simple as pick up, package and file away. Now, document storage facilities have become larger and more complex, segueing into businesses that offer a wide-range of document related services. This shift in the business has lead to a change in title as well.

When searching for a document storage facility, nine times out of ten you will find "document management centers." But what does this mean? Essentially, a document management center offers safe and secure storage of your files and documents, as well as new services unheard of before the advent of sophisticated industry technology. For example, many facilities now scan and barcode all documents entering their storage centers. Once that is completed, documents you need back at the office can not only be recalled quickly, but they can also be delivered to you digitally. Document Management Centers also typically offer services like certified shredding and hard-drive destruction, which will be discussed later on in the blog.
