2 minute read

The public’s expectations for businesses have changed. Part of being successful has become being sustainable, something which can be achieved by creating a paperless environment, a simple yet impactful transition. Despite benefitting the environment, it also benefits businesses by improving efficiency and data management, and cutting down on costs.

Embracing digital transitions is crucial to maintaining success and using software solutions, such as PaperLess and Sage, ease this transition.

Reasons To Go Paperless

Environmental Impact

Different business sizes use different amounts on paper. Regardless, reducing when possible is always beneficial to contribute to a more sustainable way of working and a greener planet.

Cost Saving
Paper, ink, printers, storage and maintenance costs all add up eventually and can be expensive to pay. Going paperless means cutting down on such expenses. 

Improved Efficiency
When storing documents digitally they become easier to organise, access and share. There is no more searching through thick files or piles of papers, just search for what you need and find it instantly.

Data Security
Create an added layer of protection to reduce the risk of theft, damage or even loss. With encryption and password protected access, keep your sensitive data secure.

PaperLess and Sage
Both PaperLess and Sage (Sage 50 and Sage 200 Evolution) can be used by a business to make a sustainable shift. With PaperLess focusing on document management and automating accounting processes, and Sage focusing on accounting processes, such as invoicing and bank reconciliation, integrating these systems is a game changer. When using these systems together, you benefit from automation, document management, cloud availability and security, along with sustainability.

Other Sustainable Systems:

LightSpeed Restaurant – a restaurant POS system allowing businesses to manage their venue’s finances, logistics and human resources from a smartphone or tablet.

Newhotel Cloud – a hotel management system which automates the back office operations to create a memorable guest experience.

XtraPOS Cloud – a retail POS system where you can track sales, manage stock and view real-time insights into your business.

Time To Transition

When transitioning to digitally storing documents, it is crucial that staff and management are properly trained on the system. Along with this, it is important to regularly carry out backups of the systems in order to remain up to date in the event of a power cut or system error. Another bonus of software solutions is being able to make use of mobile applications to view business documents and data on the go or remotely.

Be part of the change and make not only what is a great environmental choice – but also a great business move. Regardless of your business size, benefit from going digital and become an efficient and future-ready business. Contact us today to learn which paperless solution is best for you.
