Technology is helpful in many ways, one of which is that it allows easily accessible and infinite amount of online data storage. Especially with new regulations which require electronic logging (like the ELD Mandate), your trucking company can’t afford to lose valuable data. TeamOne Logistics discusses data or “cloud” storage and how your company can prevent losing valuable information:

What is “cloud storage”?

Since it’s not quite tangible, online data storage is oftentimes referred to as “cloud storage.” All uploaded information is accessible from whichever platform you saved it to. This not only allows enhanced collaboration and accessibility among anyone who needs this information, but it also gives your company an organized digital outlet for all of your data. Clear up your office’s filing cabinets, and start filing online!

How can you prevent losing valuable information?

Technology may be extraordinarily useful, but keep in mind that things can (and do) go wrong. Data loss can result from a variety of things. In more extreme cases, computers can contract viruses or crash for any reason at any time, or perhaps an employee might accidentally delete a file. In order to prevent any issues from happening, always be sure to create backup files for all of your important documents. You can also save files to an external hard drive to be extra safe.

Although data retrieval could be possible through performing a system restore or downloading relevant software programs, results are not promised. It’s better to be safe than sorry! Be sure to take the necessary precautions and ensure your files are saved and backed up appropriately to avoid any important company data loss.
