This is probably a long shot, but does anyone know of any really good but free software for DIM?
Essentially, I'm drowning in old paper records and am (or rather, have) commenced Phase 1 of Operatio Declutter. That is, I've started sorting into :-
- dump (recycle bin),
- shred and dump, and
- scan, shred and dump.
It's dealing with the third bit that is a headache. I have a (very) old system that I used for business records, but it's ancient, would be pretty expensive to update and really, just not worth it. And my current need is for personql/home stuff only No business docs. They're destined for dump or shred and dump. Finally.
I am, however, up to my ears in scanners and so want to digitise those records that I want to keep, but don't want to keep the paper versions.
If necessary, I can get away with carefully chosen filenames and a folder structure, but would rather use a software system for storing, securing and if/when needed, retrieving. But it needs to be either free or modestly priced, not expensive commercial-grade stuff that an insurance company might use.
I suspect cheap (under £50) might exist, cheap-ish (up to £100-ish) probably does, but don't want to go above that and, frankly, some free/open-source package would be perfect .... if it exists?
Does it?
Thanks.
