Paper-based horror stories

In today's digitally connected world, it might come as a surprise to know that many small businesses continue to rely on antiquated, paper-based systems. However, these methods carry their own series of nightmarish repercussions.

Paper-based processes are synonymous with inefficiency.

Each document needs to be manually handled, physically stored, and painstakingly retrieved when required. Multiply this across hundreds or thousands of files, and the resulting time sink becomes frighteningly apparent.

Paper is susceptible to a host of calamities, making it a security nightmare. Think about accidental coffee spills, misplaced documents, or even fires and floods - these are all-too-real scenarios where essential data can be irretrievably lost.

Maintaining paper records in the age of remote working and an always-on mentality is a tale of horror itself. With staff working from different locations, accessing physical documents becomes a logistical and time-consuming challenge.

The environmental impact of paper-based systems cannot be ignored.

In an era where companies are increasingly scrutinised for their eco-friendliness, the unnecessary deforestation involved in producing paper is sure to induce shivers.

Now, imagine a solution that helps you navigate the pitfalls of these paper-based problems. This is where Smashed Crab Software steps into the narrative.
