Document storage management online

Online document storage

Storing, organising and accessing your digital files, photos and videos in a central storage space can be challenging. It’s often difficult to store and share your documents efficiently without taking up vast amounts of physical space for records storage or using valuable resources for records management. 

As a result, document management systems have moved online to cloud file storage systems that also include document scanning tools and built-in document retention features. With more people opting to go paperless or work exclusively in the cloud, online document storage can be the solution that provides you with organised, accessible files anywhere you are. 

Accessible document storage anywhere

Share and manage your online documents at work

Online file or offsite document storage is a way to store and organize your digital files using an app or website. With online document storage, you can access your files from anywhere, anytime.

Cloud storage for documents and records management has many benefits.

First, you can reduce the resources used to work with and store physical paper documents at home, in the office or at other storage facilities. Going paperless lets you cut costs and be friendly to the environment.

Second, you can rest easy knowing that you’ll always have a copy of your important work and sensitive information kept in secure document storage in the cloud, even during natural disasters and other unforeseen circumstances. Last – but certainly not the least important – cloud storage services for documents streamline workflows by giving teams a central, organised and collaborative workspace.

Coming up with your electronic filing system for offsite document management starts with the question: How do you (or your team) work with online documents? With this answer, you can then easily customise Dropbox and organise online documents based on your sharing and collaboration needs.
