Computhink and PowerScan partner

Computhink and PowerScan have entered a partnership to integrate Computhink's ViewWise IDMS with PowerScan's IDEA. Businesses using the combined/integrated solution will be able to leverage the complementary strengths of both products to achieve end-to-end system features and benefits that, the companies say, are not available from any single supplier in the small- to medium-sized enterprise (SME) marketplace.

PowerScan's IDEA eliminates the recurrent expenses associated with dedicated interface boards by offering a software-only-solution. IDEA's "snap-in" architecture allows for better integration of the capture and processing functions than was previously available. IDEA allows resellers to offer their customers a reasonably priced, high-capacity image capture and processing solution that is now tightly integrated with Computhink's ViewWise IDMS. ViewWise then offers the benefits of seamlessly providing a highly featured, secure, permanent document and records repository, both for the captured images as well as for hundreds of types of electronically originating documents. ViewWise's image/document enabling capabilities can also be employed to integrate with the customer's application environment, as well as allow access to documents and data via the Internet
