Content capture can ensure documentation does not go AWOL on your business
Johannesburg, 03 Mar 2006

The digital capture and management of your documentation throughout your enterprise can now be automated cost-effectively and delivered electronically with Cardiff Teleform from AmVia.

Says Kevin Hurwitz, Managing Director of AmVia: "Even though the evolution of the digital age has already happened, and countless forms and documentation are now delivered electronically, many enterprises still use paper for the vast majority of transactions. Pieces of paper have a tendency to lose themselves in the ether of organisations, creating extra work and wasting precious company time.

"However, this is a simple problem to rectify, and can be avoided by deploying a content capture solution such as Cardiff Teleform, which can transform the little bits of paper into electronic documentation, which can then be stored online in a database."

The Teleform offering is flexible, making it perfect for organisations of any size, from small to global, as it scales to meet the business objectives of a company, and is perfectly suited to today`s business environment. Teleform is a complete range of products for capturing and submitting images, whether they are internal, from centralised or distributed knowledge workers or external, from customers and partners.

"With distributed Web capture, Teleform can help enterprises to connect people and content in a distributed enterprise. It enables companies with remote locations to effortlessly capture and distribute form and document-based content throughout the organisation using a Web browser, in turn enabling the documents to be captured and utilised in real-time, saving time and money," adds Hurwitz.

Using the superior recognition capabilities of Teleform, businesses can achieve unparalleled degrees of accuracy and quality control with regard to content, meaning that because the data captured is almost 100% accurate, employees spend less time verifying content, giving them more time to focus on other business-critical activities.

Teleform includes advanced image enhancement and correction capabilities and built in quality control features, as well as automated data validation, exception verification and point-and-click OCR.

Security is always an issue when it comes to documentation, from unauthorised user access to loss of intellectual property, especially when it is in electronic format, states Hurwitz. This is why the Teleform range incorporates enterprise strength network security capabilities, to prevent sensitive images from being exposed to unauthorised users, as well as support for and integration with Microsoft LDAP Active Directory, allowing organisations to use the existing infrastructure to keep content safe.

Apart from these features, Cardiff Teleform supports Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Database as well as Visual Basic, and has a flexible architecture which adheres to industry standards, to enable rapid, straightforward deployment into the business environment, regardless of size.

"Unmatched technical support, the most effective troubleshooting tools available, extreme fault tolerance and scalability makes Cardiff Teleform one of the most effective content capture solutions for any organisation. The product is available in three options to meet differing needs and requirements. They are Teleform Enterprise, Teleform Workgroup and Teleform Desktop," ends Hurwitz.
