options to streamline workflows
Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today
announced the availability of Therefore™ 2015, the newest version
of its information management solution to help organizations
streamline business processes and improve how information is
managed. Therefore™ 2015 includes the addition of the new
Therefore™ Business Analytics feature and Therefore™ Portal,1
providing advanced insight for information processing improvements,
effectiveness of business workflows and more customizable options
to simplify the way they do business.
“The abundance of data and files in today’s business climate can
create challenging and inefficient document and information
management practices, putting companies at risk for decreased
productivity,” said Junichi Yoshitake, senior vice president and
general manager, Business Imaging Solutions Group, Canon U.S.A.,
Inc. “Since 2013, Canon has been proud to provide customers with
the Therefore™ solution to assist businesses in extending their
capabilities of managing and using information to improve business
processes. With the addition of the new business analytics tool and
secure portal offering limited access, as well as multiple system
enhancements, Therefore™ 2015 can be used to provide customers with
even more options to maximize efficiency and maximize the way
companies do business.”
Customize Business Workflow
Designed to address evolving business needs, the latest version
of the Therefore™ solution includes the new Therefore™ Business
Analytics tool, allowing administrators to receive automatically
generated real time reports to assess the efficiency of their
company’s workflow. With this new analytics tool, users will be
able to view the number of weekly invoices, the average processing
time for a project or the number of times each user edits each
document. This insight can provide companies with valuable
knowledge to identify costly workflow bottlenecks and areas in need
of improvement.
Therefore™ 2015 also includes a newly added feature allowing
businesses to confidently share information with users outside
their organization. The new Therefore™ Portal allows businesses to
delegate unlimited, Read-Only portal access to third parties. This
limited access helps to add a new and efficient level to customer
or vendor management where account information can be securely
shared with outside parties, saving time on routine processes such
as invoicing.
User-Friendly Enhancements
Available for AndroidTM, iOS and select Windows® mobile
platforms2, the ThereforeTM Mobile App has been updated to support
data generated by the Business Analytics feature. Additionally,
with the support of third-party applications, such as Microsoft®
Office Mobile and Microsoft® QuickOffice, documents can now be
edited on-the-go.
The updated and enhanced Therefore full-text search engine
provides a variety of search options to conveniently find
documents. Searches can be performed based on relevance, hit count
or date modified. Additionally, users can filter search results to
identify OCR errors that may need to be handled as exceptions. For
ThereforeTM 2015, the full-text search engine feature includes a
new multi-lingual thesaurus, allowing search results to
automatically include words from multiple languages, providing a
time-saver for international or multi-lingual companies.
ThereforeTM 2015 offers an improved Case Management feature to
automatically create project cases from an existing database,
helping to save time. This upgraded feature provides various
possibilities to streamline workflow, including the ability to move
documents to new cases, automate tasks and start a sub-workflow
within a pre-existing project.
Availability
Using Canon’s MEAP solution platform, Therefore can be
integrated with Canon’s imageRUNNER ADVANCE series, imageRUNNER
devices and imageFORMULA DR scanners. ThereforeTM 2015 is now
available across the United States through Canon authorized
dealers. Prices are set by individual dealers and may vary
depending upon version purchased, number of licensed users, and
implementation services provided.
