And the organisation which provides all of the above mentioned features is Retasaan. Guys we are so busy these days but still we keep on locating our important files. Presently we do not understand how much helpful digitization and indexing can be. Why? Because we have some old mindset that O no! We will have to learn all these things and it will waste our time. Younger generation today is digitized but still not to that much extent.  As we all don’t know how much big this security threat is. What if I say it take only 5 minutes in understanding how to look your file on laptop and after that only seconds to open that file.

There is no age to learn and transform. This blog is not just to support indexing but also to make younger generation realize that how much easy they will make it for the older generation if they can impart little knowledge of computer and smart phones to them. Indexing is not only for any organisation, it can also be implemented for managing personal documents. So next time if someone says they don’t know how to do it, teach them and make a step towards Digital India.
