Documation Upgrades to EMC Captiva InputAccel 6 for Enterprise Capture

Documation has upgraded their optical character recognition (OCR) engine to the market-leading EMC® Captiva® InputAccel® 6 enterprise capture solution. InputAccel integrates seamlessly with Documation's Enable platform.

Eastleigh, Hampshire UK, April 1st 2010 - Documation, a leading provider of document management solutions in the UK and Europe, has upgraded their optical character recognition (OCR) engine to the market-leading EMC® Captiva® InputAccel® 6 enterprise capture solution.

Documation previously used B-Wize and the Captiva InputAccel 5.3 solution; the decision to move solely to Captiva InputAccel 6 was made because Documation believe it to be the highest quality OCR engine on the market today. InputAccel integrates seamlessly with Documation's Enable platform, from which all their document management solutions are created.

John Wallace, CEO of Documation explained the decision: "EMC Captiva InputAccel 6 is widely recognised as the leading OCR engine on the market and we are wholly committed to providing it as part of our document management solutions. Captiva's powerful ability to handle input from a range of document sources and manage everything from departmental to high volume enterprise capture, answers the needs of our customers. This means that no matter what document type, or what volume of documents our customers have, Captiva is able to efficiently and effectively capture that data. We are delighted that our first tranche of clients have now gone live with Captiva InputAccel 6, and look forward to continuing our partnership with EMC"

Working closely with EMC support enabled Documation to integrate Captiva InputAccel 6 into the live sites of existing customers in the building, retail and financial service industries, utilising diverse document workflow solutions including Digital Mailroom, Accounts Payable and Membership Administration . The first clients went live in January, and all existing and future customers will be offered Captiva InputAccel 6 as standard.

Captiva Product Sales Specialist at EMC, Owen Kilbane stated "We are very pleased to have been chosen by Documation as their enterprise capture solution. EMC Captiva is a complete set of enterprise capture technologies that provide businesses with a more effective method of scanning, classifying, indexing and validating documents. Captiva is used by global companies allowing them to transform a deluge of external data into usable, business-ready content, no matter what its format or point of origin. We look forward to expanding our relationship with Documation through a continued integration with the EMC Documentum enterprise content management solutions."

Captiva's 'building block' approach makes it easier for independent software vendors, like Documation, to create intelligent capture systems for the conversion of paper documents into electronic images and data. Combined with Documation's document management solutions, Captiva captures documents, extracts data and automatically routes this information to the line of business system, allowing clients to benefit from improved document processing efficiencies, greater management control and significantly reduced processing costs.
