We use these folders to keep track of individual clients for our business. We often have to keep track of years of tax returns, financial data, media, and notes. In the past we had used traditional tabbed folders. While these are pricier, they hold up better, and we don't see the top of the tabs 'shaved off' as with the paper variety. These are portable, more compact, and I appreciate the improvement in file cabinet organization.
Hanging folders can be a pain, and when items fall out, you're constanting retrieving them from the bottom of the file. With sides on the hanging folder, no more lost items. You can pull out the entire section, without "fall out". An excellent product
