Dad wouldn’t hear of it! “Our girls need the best education we can offer,” so of course, mom relented.

We need to update the way we handle data and documents. Scanning and information capture lead a curious double life. On one hand, it seems like we’ve been doing scanning and capture forever, at least within larger companies. Scanning and capture are stable, mature technologies with a well-documented ROI.
