Re: Organizing embroidery files
Since we built our own custom website I really cannot answer to those items. But I do know that we host through RackSpace and while they are NOT cheap ($800 to $1000 per month!) they do a complete backup of all of our pages two times a day...so the most we could potentially lose would be 12 hours of work?
today we are at design number 233,114 so that is A LOT of unique pages to store and keep track of. Each digitizer also keeps a folder on their own computer to store all the designs they do each year... so we each just started a 2017 folder.
Also a few years ago I tried to think of design types we commonly get requests for.. the American Flag for example... and searched as much a possible and wrote them down on paper...curved, wavy, straight, etc. So if my on line search does not work I can go to my paper research. Not fun or easy, but glad I took that time.
I agree with you there must be a better way! Not sure if there are enough digitizers that would be willing to pay though to make it a viable business opportunity? What do you think?
