When it comes to backing up your organization’s data it is important to remember how valuable microfilming in Ontario can be when compared to digital media. Microfilming in Ontario has been around for over a century and has remained virtually the same. Digital storage devices, although convenient and able to store mass amounts of data, can be unreliable at times and may be inaccessible in fifty, or even twenty years time.
