Alaris Helps SMBs Get the Most out of Their Digital Investments

“The Alaris E1000 series delivers an exceptional feature set that complements today’s document management and business process optimization solutions, helping SMBs maximize their ROI,” said Lee Davis, Editor of Scanner/Software Evaluation at Keypoint Intelligence - Buyers Lab. “The bundled Smart Touch scan utility lets users create scanning shortcuts—complete with image enhancement and document processing settings, plus routing instructions—to streamline and standardize frequently recurring scanning chores. In addition, users can leverage Alaris Capture Pro Software to automate batch processing tasks, which reduces mistakes and gives workers more time to work on more important tasks.”

 

Canon Simplifies Production Scanning

“The modestly priced Canon imageFORMULA DR-G2140 combines fast scan speeds and robust batch-processing capabilities with an easy user experience to help workers in mid-volume production scanning environments be more productive,” said Joe Ellerman, Manager of U.S. Lab Operations at Keypoint Intelligence - Buyers Lab. “We were very impressed with the device’s ability to capture indexing information using OCR and barcodes, and its automated batch-separation capabilities are also strong.”

 

Epson’s Mobile Scanner Makes Life Easy for On-the-Go Workers

“The Epson DS-80W mobile scanner helps on-the-go-workers be productive no matter where they go,” Davis said. “Rare for mobile scanners, the DS-80W comes with a built-in lithium-ion battery so you can scan even if there isn’t a power outlet available. That, plus Wi-Fi connectivity delivers true-wireless scanning. Don’t let the device’s lightweight and compact design fool you—the Epson DS-80W packs a powerful punch. Users can convert hardcopy documents into fully searchable, editable file types, clean up and edit scanned images, and integrate them directly into workflows, cloud services, business applications, and more.”
