- Document software remains an integral technology investment for the transfer of data between suppliers and customers; drives rapid ROI, increased productivity and reduced costs
ATLANTA, Feb. 16, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Document technology combined with the tablet could significantly advance the business processes of an organization, improve response times to clients and increase productivity. According to Gartner, by 2013, mobile phones will overtake PCs as the most common Web access device worldwide.
"In the coming years, the document software market will experience an important revolution as technologies such as tablets and smartphones create an entirely new platform paradigm shift for business computing," said Julio Olivares, CEO of DocPath Corp. "Document software can help these devices become more 'enterprise-friendly' by considering factors such as integration, security and remote printing."
DocPath, a leading provider of document software, lists five trends shaping document software in 2011:
- User-friendly solutions: Documents have become the main vehicle of communication between companies and their customers. Therefore, the variety of people who need applications for the design and generation of documents has significantly increased. Some have no technical background, requiring the tools they use to be more intuitive, flexible and simple.
- Increase in outsourcing: While most companies have their own IT departments, outsourcing has become a common practice when it comes to document management software. Through outsourcing, organizations can focus on their core business and ensure the quality of their critical services.
- New mobility trends: Widespread use of smartphones, tablets and netbooks will lead to new uses for document software. For example, logistics companies can immediately capture, share, store and retrieve information with customers including electronic signatures to significantly increase efficiency and productivity.
- Intelligent Storage: Throughout the world, the volume of information in circulation is close to 400 GB per second and all projections indicate this volume will continue growing at a rate of 50 percent. The physical cost of storing this information off-site is costly. Suppliers are trying to find smarter ways to enable storage to solve a growing problem and document software will be no exception.
- Increased Security: The consequences can be dire to a business if information is lost, damaged, destroyed or accessed by an unauthorized user. In addition, more and more regulations are requiring companies to maintain an exhaustive control on all documentation. Advances in document management software can guarantee the availability of information without losing control and confidentiality of documents.
