April 24, 2012…Instead of paying storage fees month after month and year after year for your paper files, have you considered what it cost to scan all your paper files?  eFileFolders, Inc., today introduced a paper to electronic file scanning estimator tool on its website www.efilefolders.com, which will assist organizations contemplating paper storage conversion.  The scanning estimator tool simply and instantly provides an approximate cost of scanning and converting large amounts of paper, thus empowering organizations with valuable information.  Simply enter the number of storage boxes or number of file drawers and or feet of shelf space currently being occupied with paper files and the tool instantly provides an estimate of what it would cost to scan all that paper to scanned files.
“The inefficiencies associated with traditional paper storage and retrieval services must be improved, if organizations want to enjoy the true benefits of internal and external cloud storage“, said Aftab Jiwani, CEO of eFileFolders.  “The largest objection and apprehension we encounter from most organizations considering entering in the conversion project is the unknown.  Not knowing how much paper they have and what it will cost is why we feel the scanning estimator will be of great value.” continued Aftab.    
The costs associated with paper storage extend far beyond storage fees.  It is estimated that it costs organizations $20 in labor costs to file a document, $120 in labor to find a misfiled document and $220 in labor to reproduce a lost document.  Professionals spend only 5-15% of their time reading information, but spend up to 50% of their time looking for information.  Furthermore, 7.5% of all documents get lost; an office generating 200 documents a week will lose 15 of them, costing the company $3300.
eFileFolders, Inc., provides Scanning & Imaging Services, along with its exclusive “Storage Conversion Program” to Doctors, Dentists, Insurance Agencies, Law Firms, Property Management Companies, Accounting Offices, Employment Agencies and several other types of businesses and organizations.  With its one of kind virtual file folder interface, eFileFolders makes converting, organizing, storing and retrieving paper files extremely easy.  For further information, please contact eFileFolders at 1-855-eFileFolders or 1-855-334-5336 or visit www.efilefolders.com
