Aperture Card Conversion Solution

Replace Physical Aperture Cards with Digital ReeL

Aperture CardAnyone who handles records on physical aperture cards knows how cumbersome it is to search for records using this legacy format. For organizations that present public-facing access, staff time can be consumed trying to help patrons, citizens and customers fumble through the physical archive. However, for many organizations, the expense of aperture card conversion has been too high.

Not anymore. Unlike other aperture card conversion services, Digital ReeL offers an affordable option that offers immediate, full text search of your entire record archive.
