In today's business world, making copies is a necessity for nearly every company. However, the question remains: how do you choose the most suitable method for your copying needs? Is a standalone machine the right choice, or should you invest in a multifunction printer (MFP) that offers scanning, printing, faxing, and copying capabilities?

All office solutions have "trends"--things that go in and out of style, and may or may not leave a lasting impact on the way we do things. Document management is no exception. However, the features we're about to explore are proving to be long-lasting and efficient--so maybe they're not just trends after all!

Data breaches have become a regular part of the news; so much so that businesses and individuals alike are in danger of growing complacent. The truth is, it's never a good time to let your guard down, and social engineering attacks are on the rise.
From stricter government compliance mandates to new tactics from hackers, your need for a robust IT management solution is higher than ever.
Your up-and-coming workforce has some expectations your organization should be ready to meet. For starters, they don't expect to be tied to the home office, and you'll need a robust document management application that's up to the task.
If you're thinking about switching from paper-based processes to electronic document management (and you definitely should be!), then you'll need to take a look at scanning solutions. A multifunction system with a scanning feature is always a good option. However, if you're dealing with a lot of incoming documents or scanning years of archived files, a dedicated scanner can save time while leaving your multifunction system available for other tasks.
Proactive IT management is essential for any organization, but for the healthcare industry, the well-being of your patients is at stake. When choosing a Managed IT Services partner, be sure the level of support they offer can meet your critical demands.
Here's where to start.
If you recently purchased or signed a lease agreement for a new copier, don't assume the new device is automatically HIPAA compliant. The idea that any copier is HIPAA compliant just because it includes the latest security features is a misconception. While technology can help your healthcare facility maintain document security, it's how your staff uses the equipment that determines compliance.
HIPAA compliance rules fall under three general categories including document confidentiality, the integrity of saved information, and availability to Protected Health Information (PHI).
