Kodak is offering Atalasoft, Inc.’s Vizit Scan-to-SharePoint software free, enabling scanned files to be sent directly to the widely used content management tool via Kodak’s convenient and easy to use SmartTouch feature available on selected Kodak desktop scanners. 

The combination of Kodak’s Perfect Page image enhancement and user friendly Smart Touch technologies embedded within Kodak scanners used with Vizit Scan-to-SharePoint software helps make information from paper documents available more easily accessible, readable and usable for SharePoint libraries. The KODAK SCANMATE i1120 Scanner, the KODAK i1220 Scanner, the KODAK i1320 Scanner and the KODAK i1420 Scanner, are among the first scanners to offer compatibility with Vizit Scan-to-SharePoint Software.

Bill Bither, President and CEO, Atalasoft, Inc., a member of Kodak’s Independent Software Vendor program, said, “With more than 100 million users currently subscribed to Microsoft SharePoint, it is evident that businesses are looking for ways to make it easier to collaborate on content across their offices and locations. We’re happy to provide this useful and free software for Kodak scanners to compliment our new Vizit suite of products making it easy to view, annotate, and clean up documents in SharePoint using just a browser, and allowing virtually any business to establish a true document repository for sharing information.”

The Vizit Scan-to-SharePoint software allows users to configure shortcuts to commonly used document libraries to streamline workflow process saving minutes for each scanned document and to eliminate errors when identifying the file destination. The free software is compatible with Microsoft Windows XP and Vista Operating Systems.

Hauke Fast, Kodak EAMER Product Marketing Manager, Distributed Capture, Document Imaging, Graphic Communications Group, said, “Microsoft SharePoint is an important tool for our industry which is allowing many more businesses to begin using an enterprise content management (ECM) system to get organised and make information accessible through a centralised location.  We’re working with Atalasoft to make it easier for businesses to convert documents from hard copy to digital and make them readily available for an individual anywhere within an organisation, whether they are within the same office, or across the country.”
