Hi Guys
May seem a bit strange to be posting this question on a property forum but... the Savvy IT quotient on this board is pretty high and property investors seem to have a heap of paper to manage...I know I do.
(I will search and ask elsewhere but very interested in the experiences and views of those here!)
So my question is this - what's the best solution for scanning, storing and retrieving documents in the cloud. And what's the best cloud storage service in your experience.
What's the best high-speed duplex scanner that doesn't cost thousands?
I've had a play with dropbox, box.net, evernote (which I guess is a bit different). They each have some limitations and benefits...
I vaguely recall either Sim or Rolf saying they scan everything then put it in a box by date order (as a manual back up).
I don't want to store much, if anything, on a local computer/drive other than as a backup. Want to be able to search and access the docs with low capacity devices like smartphone, tablet etc.
The key thing is I would like a comprehensive search function. I don't want to have to spend hours at the computer filing, tagging, sorting etc...
Asking too much?
Thanks for any guidance you have.
Cheers
