It\u2019s a concept that nearly everyone can relate to, especially in today\u2019s hyper-connected, digital world. It is estimated that ninety percent of the world\u2019s data has been produced in the last two years. In fact, 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are produced every day. This is equivalent to 10 million blue ray discs stacked on top of each other, equaling the height of four Eiffel Towers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">While the average business does not have to process data at the quintillion level yet, it\u2019s critical to gain control of how information is captured and managed. To address this challenge, Kodak Alaris has launched a series of enhancements to its software portfolio that will help businesses and governments accelerate their digital transformation. <strong>Kodak Info Input Express<\/strong> and <strong>Kodak Info Input Solution v4.0<\/strong>, which features a new mobile app, deliver simplified, connected and secure solutions to combat the overwhelming amount of data that weighs down people and processes and keeps businesses from realising their full potential.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cDocument capture is not new. But to keep pace with the speed of business, companies need solutions that can move the needle from siloed and disjointed approaches for capturing information from paper, one department at time, to using a unified workflow that can grow with a business,\u201d said Emma Isichei, Worldwide Category Director, Capture Solutions, Kodak Alaris Information Management. \u201cWhat was once a linear and regimented process has now expanded to include dynamic workflows that span a variety of structured and unstructured data. This can now be managed without incurring large customisation costs. The enriched Info Input portfolio addresses the challenges and opportunities presented by the growth of web-connected devices across a myriad of industries and business sizes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Bringing mobile capture to today\u2019s enterprise<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The enhanced <a href=\"http:\/\/media.ne.cision.com\/l\/tinrphgt\/www.kodakalaris.com\/go\/infoinputnews\"><span class=\"s2\">Info Input Solution v4.0<\/span><\/a> is a web-based document capture application that provides an efficient way to integrate capture into existing enterprise content management (ECM) and line of business applications. Organisations that implement Info Input can be more responsive to customers, while driving down costs and enjoying the efficiencies of web-based business applications. The solution helps eliminate costs associated with thick client software by allowing IT departments to centrally manage the deployment and support of Info Input on desktops and mobile capture devices. It also eliminates per-user licenses and volume-based click charges.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Info Input Solution 4.0 now accommodates complex workflows, adding a mobile element for increased flexibility. For instance, insurance agents who frequently work remotely filing claims are now able to capture off-site and push data into a business process or workflow as if they were in the office.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Additional benefits include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Centralised access, which means IT departments can take control of scanning job setup and workflows, creating easy-to-manage policies across scanner fleets from one central point.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Offline scanning for remote locations with low network bandwidth, which delivers added employee flexibility and convenience.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Increased mobility because Info Input does not need to be installed on a PC.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Enabling knowledge workers to capture information in the field with mobile devices, and index and send automatically into the correct workflow.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Boosting SMB capture capabilities<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Info Input Express Software meets the needs of knowledge workers in SMB and other distributed scanning environments. It helps save time by managing jobs centrally and sharing throughout the organisation, and also enables access to specified user groups.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Additional benefits include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">History-based indexing to enable the user to save time and ensure consistency by selecting from a list of previous entered values.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Web server processing, supporting lower powered desktop PCs and helping organisations avoid the high costs and complexities of updating desktop software.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">The ability to create user groups and to specify the activities these users can engage in, enabling shareable data and better collaboration.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The term \u201cinformation overload\u201d was coined over a half century ago by social scientist Bertram Myron Gross.
