Going Paperless With DocLink Pays for Itself – Customers Experience ROI in First Year

It’s inevitable that one of the first questions a company will ask when evaluating a new solution is “what does it cost?” But in reality, the better question is, “what will it cost if I DON’T implement?”

ROI (return on investment) is an important financial metric that is widely used to measure the probability of gaining a return from an investment. In some instances, measurement can be difficult if there are no hard costs savings to show.

But our customers are quick to see and know the value DocLink brings them in a variety of areas, including:

Physical cost savings – By going paperless, you no longer have the paper, hardware and shipping/courier cost of printing, copying, sharing, filing, and storing all your documents. This often amounts to thousands of dollars in savings annually for traditional companies.

Time savings – Eliminating paper and digitizing all documents allows everyone to save measurable time in so many ways. The time it takes to find or track specific files and documents is huge. For example, an accounts payable department alone typically save hours/days/weeks searching for documents for daily tasks or for larger projects like audits. Automating manual tasks and processes is also a giant time saver. No more keying and re-keying the same data or correcting human error for instance.

Staffing savings – If your teams are more efficient, then employees have time to work on more strategic tasks and projects, eliminating the need for additional staffing.

Document management is essential to any company and can pay for itself in short order. But you don’t have to take our word for it. Check out our most recent success story to see how Sage 100 customer Summit Financial Group gained significant benefits by implementing DocLink and achieved ROI in under a year.
