Data is beginning to proliferate our lives and our business practices. However, this data is only useful if we can access it flexibly and turn it into useful information. Many times data is stored in unfamiliar, complex, or legacy formats that you may not be able to utilize directly. PropertyKey is skilled at converting this unmanageable data into standard formats which are easy to use and import into other database systems. PropertyKey has experience converting such formats as EBCDIC, Binary, Text, spreadsheets, COBOL data, and data from most database systems. PropertyKey has the capability to convert to and from over 100 types of data formats. Contact us for more information.

Many organizations also have problems accessing data, not because it is in an unusable format, but because it is stored on a form of media they cannot read. PropertyKey has experience reading and writing data to and from many kinds of tapes, tape cartridges, CD's and other media. We are also able to read a great many tape formats, including tar, byte swapped formats, many backup programs, and direct writing of data to tape. If you have data on media which you can't access, don't spend thousands of dollars for hardware, software, and training to use it -- contact PropertyKey. We can also serve as a data storage bureau, to be sure you have a safe backup copy of your vital data.
