How the move to remote working gave businesses a push to the cloud

Bundledocs_Paperless_Remote_Working.jpg

The last year has seen more traditional sectors such as the legal sector, who for many years had been somewhat resistance to change, forced to transform their way of working, virtually overnight. Some of these sectors have been working the same way – primarily paper-based - for decades. That all changed in March. Suddenly, there were no printers at home, teams were working in different areas, and there was no way to do the old method.

Here at Bundledocs, we saw an over 40% increase in demand for our document bundling software. Here are our three takeaways from how the shift to remote working gave businesses the push they needed to take advantage of the cloud.

 

Wariness of the cloud

There was, perhaps, a certain lingering wariness around cloud-based products from a security perspective. People often forget that they use cloud-based products all the time e.g. email.

Once organisations got over the initial reticence, however, they found that cloud-based storage is more secure than, for example, keeping physical documents on a premises.

It is also easier to introduce – as it’s cloud-based, there is no complex installation process.

 

Taking advantage of adaptability

While the cloud technology was there before, the impetus to move wasn’t. Since March, there has been a steep learning curve with adaptability being key.

The team at Bundledocs has seen a cultural shift - it’s been amazing to see how quickly people have adapted. Once the right tools and training were in place, our customers surprised themselves, adapting quickly and reaping the benefits.

 

Keep in contact

Now that that the last few months have proven that teams can work effectively remotely, keep that momentum going by staying in touch with your team. Make sure they maintain and increase their comfort levels with new tools and technologies.

We are continuously updating our software with new functionalities and features – once you take the first step, the sky’s the limit when it comes to the advantages of the cloud.

We have found that once employees are given the right tools for the job at hand, everyone adapts so quickly and wonders why didn’t they didn’t use the technology available to them before.

Three Benefits Of Using Bundledocs

Those working in professions such as the legal profession, business, government organisations, medicine, accountancy and banking are among the many who spend hours of their week compiling and recompiling paper files, but there is a better way.

As well as this, the many different functions of Bundledocs allow you to go back into documents and make edits where required, and will organise your documents into neat, numbered, sectioned booklets in a matter of minutes, ready for you to save them, share them or print them. A process that usually requires a large amount of time and effort, made simple.

Three Main Benefits of Using Bundledocs

1.       Your documents are more secure than ever

With Bundledocs, your documents are safe and secure. You can trust that our platform has been developed securely, to offer you the greatest level of piece of mind when working on confidential documents that may have sensitive information.

You can make your bundles password--protected, meaning that only those who know the password can access the files within. If you only want someone to view the bundle temporarily, you can send it through our Secure Share function, which will grant them one-time access. If they require access to the document again, they can request that you send them another one-time access link. Whether you want to create groups for your bundles for you and your colleagues to collaborate on, share bundles with your clients, or invite counsel or third parties to work on documents with you, Bundledocs has you covered.

2.       Access your documents from anywhere in the world

In today’s environment, we are seeing many people working from home. This trend is likely to become part of the norm, even post-Covid-19. When we are able to travel freely again, the four walls of your office could be anywhere from your bedroom to the Bahamas. Bundledocs will allow you to access your documents from anywhere in the world.

Whether you have your PC, your laptop, tablet or phone, you can access all of your files and continue working on Bundledocs, any time, any place. Your team members can also be dispersed far and wide, and all of you will be able to access your shared files from any device.

3.       Become more paper-light

Not only is electronic storage better for the environment but having cloud storage accessible online means you no longer need to worry about lugging around reams of paper from place to place. You can come to your documents rather than your documents coming with you.

Having these documents digitally stored also allows you to utilise Bundledocs further and have your bundles automatically indexed, numbered, hyperlinked and bookmarked to the highest standard every time. As well as this, the bundles are automatically formatted, collated, sections are populated and the document is paginated.

When you are ready, you can then download the complete bundle and print it all in one go, saving you hours that were previously spent by the photocopier. Instead of waiting for documents to be delivered to the relevant people, and gaining their feedback and then reprinting, Bundledocs lets you instantly send and receive electronic documents, meaning you are saving time, money and are working more efficiently, with less paper.
