Scan-on-demand: A flexible solution for everyone.

If you're looking to slowly digitise a large collection, or just want to scan a few files at a time, scan-on-demand might be the right service for you. It's ideal if you have files that need to be stored for a long time, but are not accessed often.

We'll take care of everything.

We'll handle collection, storage, scanning and delivery. Pack up your collection and we'll collect it for you from anywhere in the UK and Europe. We'll store the files in our secure warehouse until you need access to them. Whenever you need a file, just put in a request and you'll have an electronic copy of the file within 24 hours of the request.

Go paperless.

Free your office from physical documents: with scan on demand, you have the opportunity to go completely paperless. Save time, space and money by digitising your collection.

Collection

Using our UK wide collection service, the boxes are collected and brought to our integrated storage & scanning facility.

Request

Using our file request system, users can conveniently send their file requests to us electronically.

Scanning

We will retrieve, scan and upload the file onto Pearl Cloud for immediate access.

Shredding

After an agreed period, we will securely shred the file to eliminate further storage costs.

Benefits of on-demand document scanning services

Traditionally, files are either stored in-house or in an offsite storage provider. In either case, organisation loses time, money or space.

These solutions solve the immediate problem. However, monthly recurring costs and lengthy file retrieval times mean they do not work out as long-term solutions.

These methods also provide no backup, no guarantee of confidentiality once shredded, and no contingency plan.

With on-demand scanning, storage costs and retrieval costs go down each month. This is because we will digitise your files and back them up, so you can access them from anywhere.
Also, if you request the same file again, there is no cost of retrieval!
Scan on-demand also reduces the risk of files being lost during retrieval.
Once a document has been scanned, we will shred it, eliminating re-collection and further storage costs
