Testimonials
“We engaged Elite Scanning Solutions to assist in transitioning our business to a paperless model. We had almost 50 years of documents to scan & 3 months to complete the project before we moved to our new Corporate Office in Coffs Central.
At each stage of the process Elite kept us informed of their progress & adapted throughout the project to accommodate our needs.
David and his staff had the upmost in professionalism & we could not recommend Elite more highly.
We are proud to support local business wherever possible and can highly recommend David & the Elite team.”
