Community Driven CU Converts Paper Documents with eDOC

Community Driven Credit Union based in Ypsilanti, MI with 57 million in assets recently converted all of their paper documents into digital files utilizing eDOC’s Paper Conversion professional service.   Community Driven CU selected eDOC Innovations to assist with their electronic document storage conversion prior to their conversion to CU*Answers for their core data processing. 

Linda Bartlett, acting CEO for Community Driven Credit Union comments, “When making the decision to switch core data processors, we didn’t take into consideration the electronic records that would need to be converted as well.  It was a very reassuring when eDOC contacted us and offered to step up and take that burden off our shoulders.”

The paper documents were turned into electronic records which are stored on DVDs with a built-in search engine to allow easy access to the documents in the future. Community Driven Credit Union will be utilizing the eDOC Paper Conversion service in the future for further data conversion.
