Why convert your
data? Running incompatible application formats, or media is
risky, costly, and unnecessary! New hardware may not be able to read old applications and
media. And old hardware is costly and inconvenient to keep running. Legacy
documents and files can be very slow to access (wasting your time) or may
not be accessible at all (putting you at risk legally). And when companies
or departments merge, sometimes their systems don't! Converting your data
can resolve these issues. When to convert? When you are:
·
Merging two separate business entities
·
Sharing information between offices with
different systems
·
Changing software packages or hardware
platforms
·
Using outdated storage equipment
·
Needing repetitive service calls to keep the
system running
·
Merging or consolidating operations that use
different equipment, software, or backup devices
·
Acquiring data from outside sources on
incompatible media or in the wrong format
·
Changing equipment vendors for archival
applications or storage
·
In need of a specialized software application
written to complete or perform a data or media conversion
