Keypoint Intelligence – Buyers Lab (BLI) has recognised Kodak Alaris with an Outstanding Achievement in Innovation award for Alaris Info Input Express software (both Limited Edition and Network Edition). Info Input Express is an intuitive web-based solution that simplifies information capture via mobile devices, multifunction printers and dedicated scanners. Documents and extracted data can be routed to desktops or business systems with significantly less human error.

Businesses are abandoning slow and costly paper-based processes in favour of cloud-based, digital alternatives such as ECM systems, business process automation solutions and line-of-business applications. To get the most out of these digital investments, organisations need capture solutions that can quickly and accurately extract and organise information.

“Alaris Info Input Express delivers a streamlined, easy-to-use interface, but don’t mistake that for a lack of power,” said Jamie Bsales, Director of Solutions Analysis for Keypoint Intelligence. “The utility combines a host of intelligent capabilities. For instance, the Intelligent Job Select feature enables users to insert patch code separator sheets into a batch to automatically change settings or profiles in the middle of a job, so they don’t have to stop to change them manually. Furthermore, users can search the Catalog to find and retrieve documents by entering metadata or full-text search criteria.”

BLI listed several additional benefits that users can expect, including:

• One-touch job buttons and automated indexing and routing to streamline business processes and reduce mistakes;

• Optical Character Recognition (OCR), barcodes, and patch codes for more efficient document processing;

• Full text and metadata search capabilities, plus document linking and activity filtering;

• Integration with leading cloud-services, plus an optional mobile app that lets users capture on the go;

• Easy deployment, use and support.

“Alaris Info Input Express enables users to access information anywhere – at the office or remotely,” said Siddhartha Bhattacharya, Vice President, Global Marketing, Kodak Alaris Information Management. “It can be used in a wide range of industries and vertical markets such as healthcare, government, banking and insurance to improve customer experience, facilitate compliance and reduce risk. It’s easy to use, support and install. And it’s scalable, which means lower licensing, upgrade and training costs. We’re proud to be recognised by Buyers Lab and we remain committed to offering an integrated approach to information capture, driven by the best scanners and software, delivered by our global network of partners.”

Kodak Alaris has won more BLI Awards (26) than any other scanner manufacturer. The firm was recognised with the 2016 and 2017 Scanner Line of the Year awards from Buyers Lab, marking the first time a scanner vendor has won the award two consecutive years.
