Plano, Texas (July 28, 2008) - Muratec America, Inc., manufacturer of multifunction office equipment and business productivity solutions, announces today that the ScanTag metadata capture solution for Muratec MFP’s has been successfully integrated with the SmartSearch® Document Management Suite developed by Square 9 Softworks.
Available on the Muratec MFX-2050, MFX-1450, F-565 and F-525, ScanTag enables users to enter indexing fields on the MFP touchscreen to facilitate seamless document archiving into the SmartSearch® Document Management Suite.
To utilize ScanTag, a system administrator can register several metadata fields on the MFP using the intuitive browser interface. A user can then walk up to the MFP, insert their document into the automatic document feeder and select [ScanTag]. Users can then enter the required indexing fields, choose the document file format (TIFF or PDF) and select [Start]. The document will be scanned and the indexing fields will be converted into an XML data file, which is used to import and index the document into SmartSearch®. Users then have instant access to the document within SmartSearch®.
“Within companies of all sizes the demand is growing for document management solutions to oversee the retention and management of business-critical information,” said Jim D’Emidio, President, Muratec America, Inc. “We believe SmartSearch® offers businesses an outstanding document management solution that is not only easy-to-use and cost-effective, but enables businesses to simplify their document workflow. By integrating Muratec multifunction solutions into a SmartSearch® environment, users have a convenient method of digitally capturing and indexing paper documents from within their individual workgroup.”
From small businesses to the Fortune 500, organizations that rely on document-intensive processes use SmartSearch® to manage documents electronically and streamline their workflows as they eliminate inefficient paper-based filing systems. Built on the .NET Platform using an open architecture design, SmartSearch® is a scalable, value-driven solution that is easy to use, learn and support. This unique software solution is ideal for paper-intensive businesses such as law offices, physician practices, accounting firms, trucking companies and mortgage and title companies that are looking for a cost-effective way to eliminate their paper-based filing systems.
“The Muratec MFP line coupled with ScanTag deliver integration capabilities we have not seen before at this price point,” said Stephen Young, President and CEO of Square 9 Softworks.“ This aggressive approach to delivering a fully integrated solution for capture, indexing and archival is just what the market has been calling for. We see a tremendous opportunity for Office Equipment Dealers to offer a solution with unique value to their customers,” Young added.
