Advantage Credit, Inc. (ACI) was facing a high employee turnover rate due to its paper-heavy work processes that did not allow for remote work flexibility. As the workforce matured, the company's president, Don Unger, realized that offering remote work could help retain the highly skilled workforce. However, the transition from paper to digital files was a challenge due to the large amount of paper files and records that each employee needed to access. The company needed a secure document management solution that could digitize paper documents, securely archive them, and offer fast retrieval, collaboration, editing, and other actions from anywhere and at any time.
