Azazello1313 Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 so i'm tasked with finding a new document scanner for our office, trying to decide if VRS is worth the extra money. Do Less and Get More? Sounds Crazy But It's TrueThink about it. When you scan documents today it's not as simple as shoving a bunch of paper into the scanner. Before you even get to the scanner, you spend time rotating and organizing documents. Then you must tweak scanner settings so they are “just right” for your document type. Plus, if you’re scanning a mixture of color and black & white documents, changing scanner settings or inserting patch codes to accommodate color documents is usually par for the course. And if something doesn’t quite work out, you’re stuck rescanning the bad documents. And rescanning eats into the time savings you hoped to earn by implementing a scanning solution in the first place! You’ve been there and probably didn’t enjoy it. Many of these preparatory tasks take valuable time, and they interrupt workflows, are inefficient, and are a burden on the scanner operator. VRS from Kofax is here to help! VRS is a software-based tool that gets rid of these time consuming tasks so your organization can do more…in less time. And that leads to a more efficient operation. VRS automatically analyzes the content of each scanned document and the orientation of the image is corrected on the fly. VRS can detect color documents from black and white documents without changes to the scanner settings or any other manual intervention. Better Images From the moment you click "Scan" VRS doesn’t just reduce the time involved in manual document preparation, it also enhances the quality of scanned images. It’s true. And ensuring that your images are of the best quality possible at the point of capture is critical to the rest of the document management process, as image quality will significantly impact the success of data extraction, recognition, and retrieval. VRS helps you say goodbye to the “garbage in, garbage out” dilemma. The technology in VRS actually straightens and cleans your scanned images -– and it does it automatically! This makes for a big improvement in the accuracy of your optical character recognition (OCR) and handwriting recognition (ICR) software. Plus, noisy backgrounds are suppressed resulting in smaller image files that don’t take all day to pop up on your screen or transmit over your network. VRS also has the smarts to detect and delete blank pages that come through the scanner. This means you no longer have to save worthless blank pages, freeing up valuable storage space. VRS increase OCR accuracy. In fact, a Doculabs study found that the high-quality images produced by VRS improve OCR accuracy by nearly 35%. VRS produces compact, network-friendly images helping to reduce storage costs. After using VRS you’ll fully appreciate how it can improve the efficiency of your scanning operation. So here’s an offer that you shouldn’t refuse. Download the trial version of VRS 4.1 today. We think you’ll realize why over 50,000 VRS users won’t scan without it.
