In the December 2014 "Out on a LIMS®" newsletter issue that came out, yesterday, I reissued a past newsletter article that addresses the fact that a paper system is not the same as an automated system.

From the numbers and some remarks I'm seeing and hearing about it, I think there's enough interest in this topic that I should also put the link here in the blog. Here is the link to "When Not to Replace Your Paper System":
