3 mistakes you should avoid in order not to lose your files!

Want to get better control of your files and be more efficient in your work? We at Storegate have now listed the 3 most common mistakes you should avoid in order not to lose files and avoid spending time on unnecessary work, making you more time efficient. Avoid doing the following:

1. Saving files locally on your computer
   Files and documents that you store locally, for example on your desktop, may be lost if you are affected by a computer crash, virus or fire. Instead, use a backup service to back up your data in case something unexpected happens. This minimises the risk of data loss and keeps you out of an unnecessary situation thanks to the backup that can retrieve your files.
2. You've put important information on USB sticks and external hard drives
   Files you store on memory cards or hard drives are at high risk of being lost, both because of the human factor of accidentally losing your USB stick and because hard drives that have been sitting in your desk drawer for too long will eventually start to lose data. To make sure your information is always available, it's smarter to store your files in a Swedish cloud service. The cloud is a safer way to store data and a big advantage is that you have easy access to all your files. Your information is available via your mobile, tablet or computer. If you need more space, you can always expand your storage to secure more documents.
3. You use several different tools to share information
   If you send sensitive information via email, chat forum or a regular file transfer service, Storegate offers you a better solution.
