Digitization
Digitization is the process of converting real-world data into digital form. This transformation happens by scanning or capturing an image, recording a sound, or translating text into a digital format. Digitized data can be stored and processed using computers, allowing for easier sharing and access than if it were in analog form. Digitizing information helps preserve it because digital files are less susceptible to damage.
What Small and Midsize Businesses Need to Know About Digitization
The digitization of information has transformed how businesses operate. Digitized data can now help create new products, improve existing ones, and even predict customer behavior. By digitizing their processes, SMBs find it easier to share information between departments or customers in real time without waiting for others to respond. In addition, many companies now use cloud-based applications that require data to be in digital form.
