Large businesses are constantly looking for ways to manage information more efficiently and productively. Extracting data from documents for business processes and getting information into digital storage can slow things down, impacting expenses and customer happiness.

“As organizations rely more on online platforms for profit, it’s critical to manage remaining paper documents effectively,” says Harvey Spencer, President of leading capture software analyst firm Harvey Spencer Associates. “The best approach is quickly converting paper into usable electronic data.”
To meet this need, Kodak Alaris has released KODAK CapturePro Software v5.0. This software makes document scanning more accurate, efficient, and cost-effective. Capture Pro Software v5.0 simplifies scanning, automates indexing, and streamlines converting paper to digital information. Its advanced indexing capabilities automate data extraction, sending crucial information to enterprise content management (ECM) systems, Microsoft SharePoint, and other business applications.
“With Capture Pro Software v5.0, Kodak Alaris continues to make scanning and indexing fast and easy, helping businesses save money and boost productivity,” says Spencer.
Capture Pro Software has demonstrated its value across various business applications. Some examples include:
- Government: A government department digitizes client records from multiple locations. Case workers now access records faster, improve customer service, and mitigate fraud risks.
- Healthcare: A healthcare provider eliminates manual indexing and improves accuracy in managing patient records. Key data like patient name, ID, appointment time, and reason are automatically populated in forms. The result is lower costs, reduced errors, smarter resource allocation, and improved patient care.
- Service Bureau: A service bureau uses drag-and-drop optical character recognition (OCR) on specific client data to verify database information, reducing data entry time by half. Capture Pro Software enhances accuracy by eliminating the need for manual double-entry of data.
“Our customers represent a wide range of industries and paper-based business applications. They use Capture Pro Software to turn documents into searchable, shareable data across their organizations,” says Susheel John, Managing Director, Document Imaging, Kodak Alaris Asia Pacific.
“With each version, we enhance functionality to meet evolving information capture demands. Based on customer feedback, Capture Pro v5.0 includes improvements like a simpler user interface and several productivity enhancements.”
Key new features in Capture Pro v5.0:
- A quick start interface allows users to begin scanning with a single click. This more intuitive design makes it easier for occasional users.
- Support for Windows 8.1
- Expanded support for new Kodak Alaris scanners and additional third-party scanners.
Capture Pro Software received a 2014 Summer Pick Award from Buyers Laboratory LLC (BLI), a leading independent evaluator of document imaging solutions. BLI highlighted Capture Pro’s functionality, ease of use, and Optical Mark Recognition (OMR), which accurately indexed checkboxes on every tested document.
