What is document archiving?

Document archiving involves storing older documents in long-term storage so they're available when needed. This process not only makes it easy to find older documents but also ensures their security and legal compliance. Plus, it saves valuable space in your office and on servers.

The benefits of secure document archiving

When your business archives and organises documents like invoices, employee applications, facility documentation, vendor contracts and sales presentations, secure document archiving safeguards against legal issues, leaks and loss. You also unlock the benefits of digitisation.

Case studies of secure document archiving

Carebase is a leading operator of retirement and nursing homes in the UK, running 15 facilities. HR previously created a paper-based checklist of required documents for each new hire. Documents were then sent back and forth between the homes. As recruitment increased, more problems within the process emerged. After a convincing solution, the company decided on the cloud-based document management system (DMS). After just one week, the most crucial recruitment process was digitally mapped. Since the process optimisation, Carebase hasn't had to hire additional administrative staff despite increasing documentation requirements. DocuWare's solution guarantees the highest level of compliance security through audit-proof and digital archiving of all confidential documents. Read the full case study.

Before their DMS was introduced, each client required a great deal of paper documentation. 400-500 documents from ongoing trading quickly accumulated, including declarations of consent, signed forms and financial statements. Employees had to repeatedly hunt down individual documents from their archives or spend time storing new documents. With DocuWare, retrieving information has become much easier thanks to their DMS. Instead of searching for hours in the paper archive as in the past, documents are now retrieved on screen within seconds. Thanks to extensive search features, employees can perform even complex document-based analysis and evaluations in a time-saving manner. For example, full-text searches only filter out those documents from the archive that match a customer profile with specific criteria. Read the full case study.
