Digitization means from the beginning going from analog to digital. Today, we mainly think about moving information from physical form to digital form. You simply turn written text into ones and zeros. The very process that companies go through when they go from writing orders in a binder to using an order system in the computer is thus digitization in its purest form.
In concrete terms, digitization means that data and information are stored on a computer, in a network or in the cloud. When information is digitized, it becomes easier to manage and to further develop. For example, it is much easier to follow and forecast sales trends if all orders, all customers and all prospects are stored digitally. Then you can make quick calculations and immediately see how different parameters affect each other. If you instead have all the data analog, it becomes a very time-consuming task to make the same calculations.
