Preserving Knowledge: Document Digitisation Services by Sabinet

At Sabinet, our commitment to providing access to quality information goes beyond our vast resources and online journal collections. We are equally renowned for our cutting-edge document digitisation services.

For over four decades, we have established ourselves as the leading source of information in South Africa and on the African continent. Through these decades, we have meticulously collated data, offering an open door to knowledge sharing, encompassing various topics relevant to Africa, its countries and its people. We apply the same precision to customer document digitisation.

Document Digitisation is What We Do

The digital age has introduced a new era of knowledge management. Once easily lost or damaged, physical documents can now be preserved and readily accessed by documenting them digitally. Sabinet understands the immense value of this process and offers a comprehensive suite of document digitisation services that empower companies and organisations to embark on a transformative journey.

Why Choose Sabinet for Document Digitisation?

Several factors make Sabinet the ideal partner for addressing your digitisation needs. This is a closer investigation of what we offer:

  • Unparalleled Expertise: We boast over 25 years of experience in document digitisation, successfully handling up to 13,000 pages per day. Our team of digital experts possesses an in-depth knowledge of various document types and the delicate handling required for fragile materials.
  • Tailored Solutions: We do not believe in offering a one-size-fits-all solution to digitisation. We recognise that every company or organisation has unique requirements, and our services are meticulously tailored to meet those specific needs.
  • Security and Confidentiality: Whether we work from your premises or make use of our facilities, we put the safety and security of your documents first. That said, our facilities are designed to safeguard your valuable content.
  • Advanced Technology: We have access to state-of-the-art technology to ensure the highest quality digitisation of your documents. This includes employing Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software, which meticulously converts scanned images into searchable and editable text, facilitating swift information retrieval.
  • Not Just About Scanning: Our services involve meticulously tagging each document according to your specifications, ensuring seamless organisation and integration with existing systems. This metadata creation automatically creates a user-friendly experience for information retrieval.

Benefits of Document Digitisation with Sabinet

Access a multitude of advantages immediately, simply by partnering with Sabinet.

  • Streamlined Processes: Physical documents often lead to time-consuming searches and cumbersome filing systems. Digitisation eliminates these obstacles, enabling quick retrieval, efficient workflow and floor space optimisation.
  • Cost Savings: Paper trail document storage necessitates dedicated space, which often creates ongoing storage costs. Digitisation frees up valuable physical space and reduces the need for paper-based filing systems, leading to significant cost reductions over time.
  • Preservation and Security: Physical documents are susceptible to damage or loss through human error, natural disasters, natural decay or even paper-eating critters. Digitisation safeguards your valuable information, creating a secure digital replica that can be easily backed up and protected both on- or off-site.
  • Environmental Impact: Reducing paper usage is an important step towards environmental sustainability. Digitising documents minimises reliance on paper, therefore, assisting in the prevention of deforestation and contributing to a greener future.
