Not a leap into the unknown
You already have what you need
The transition to digitalization is by no means a leap into the unknown. Quite the contrary: though we now take them for granted, using email to communicate or a simple excel spreadsheet to record customer data already marks the beginnings of digitalization at your company. After all, there isn't a company in the world that is exclusively analog. Since you already have the basics in place, you won't need to begin from scratch. That's a start!
Take your document management to the next level
What is digital document management and what role does it play in the digitalization of your company? Quite simply, a document management system (DMS) is the first and most important step on the road to digital transformation at your company. Think of digital document management as a springboard that will give you the momentum you need to dive into digitalization. Without a functioning DMS, you won't be able to further digitize your company – at the same time, a DMS can't be realized without digitalization. It is interactions like these that take small and medium-sized companies to the next level.
Take your document management to the next level
Though the exact costs and technical work required will differ in each individual case, we can certainly put your mind at ease: only in the rarest cases are new hardware purchases and IT experts necessary to integrate a functional DMS into your company. In the context of document management systems, you have probably heard of the difference between "software on premises" and "software as a service".
Software as a service – the optimal solution
Software on premises (SoP) relies solely on the local use of data and infrastructure. The software is therefore located on your own server. On the one hand, this means that you are independent of third-party providers and have maximum freedom of choice, while on the other hand you are responsible for hardware, data security, maintenance and updates – making IT knowledge a prerequisite for this type of system.
Software as a service (SaaS) from an external service provider is a convenient method for introducing a DMS. In contrast to software on premises, a separate server is not required. The software is operated for you in the cloud and you rent the system for your purposes. Software manufacturers like d.velop ensure high security standards for your data.
