Overview:

Where do you land in the capture continuum?
You’ve got a scanner, and you have a lot of paper to manage.
Now what?

Despite technology, most companies continue to struggle to manage the burden of paper in many important business processes. Sure, you can scan documents to create a digital image as a first step to eliminate paper; but this “scan and store” approach falls short of the full potential of modern document and data capture systems. You may be missing significant opportunity for more savings and efficiencies; but with all the technological solutions available how do you know which one is right for you?

After more than 20 years, capture systems have evolved from simple solutions for basic scanning into sophisticated and expensive systems for enterprise wide document automation. This paper explores capture systems in five categories – the Five Phases of Capture – and describes the features and benefits of each. Every phase along the continuum can bring value to an organization based on its document strategy.

This paper is designed to help you meet your objectives while providing a guide for understanding the complete spectrum of capture capabilities.
