Kofax has debuted a new version of its Document Exchange Server software which, with this release, is being rebranded as Kofax Front Office Server 2.7.

The company reports that the new offering allows forms and documents to be captured at their point of origin in front-office environments via multifunction peripherals (MFPs), desktop scanners and fax machines. This release provides tight integration with Kofax Capture and Transformation Modules, thereby leveraging the robust capabilities of those products.

As a result, Kofax claims, organizations can now significantly improve the efficiency of document-centric operations, speed processing times, reduce costs and enhance customer service. This release also includes new collaboration capabilities, such as scan-to-e-mail and scan-to-fax features, which provide enhanced office automation improvements on a single platform.
