Make a Backpack Page in 3 steps

Backpack Pages: The magic of Backpack

Backpack Pages are Backpack's secret weapon. You can add any combination of notes, to-dos, files, photos, and dividers to a page. Pages just take seconds to create and can be used to organize, share, and discuss anything.

Watch how quickly you can make a Backpack Page

Here are a few ways Backpack can help you organize your business...

Keep important documents in one place.

The files, forms, and documents your employees need are likely scattered across the office on different computers or in different filing cabinets. That's old school and inefficient.

Your paper documents

Now you can store your company’s forms, expense reports, and worksheets on Backpack. Now everyone knows where they are and can get them at any time.

Share how-tos, tutorials, and guides.

You might share information with your employees by email, phone calls, or posting flyers in common areas. Maybe your company publishes a newsletter or catalogs employee FAQs in the form of employee manuals. There's a better way.

Your manuals and white papers

Cut down on paper waste and put it all in Backpack instead. Backpack makes it easy for you to build pages with everything your employees need to get their jobs done.

Share details for a business trip.

Organizing and sharing maps, flight information, hotel confirmation numbers, and other trip details can be a real hassle. Well, at least it used to be before Backpack.

Your trip agenda

With Backpack you can quickly build a page complete with photos, maps, and meeting agendas. No more wrestling with email inboxes to find the information.

Also, since Backpack is web-based, your Backpack Pages are accessible from any computer.
