Captovation Releases eCapture Version 4.2

New version features enhanced browser-based document capture component

Minneapolis, MN, February 25, 2002 -- Captovation, which develops production-level and Internet-based document capture software for the Enterprise, has officially released the latest version of their flagship product eCapture. Highlighting the release is a new version of ecNet, eCaptures browser-based document capture component.

The newest version of ecNet now supports three remote capture methods: scan only, scan and index documents, and scan and index batches (groups of documents). The scan and index batches capability was added to the latest release, and provides users with the ability to scan multiple batches and perform post document indexing. Now, remote ecNet users will be able to scan and index a larger number of documents much quicker.

As one of the pioneers of browser-based document capture, we are committed to the success of ecNet," said Ken Peterka, President and CEO of Captovation. A big part of that success lies in Captovations drive to continually improve our product offering. We do this by listening to what our partners and customers have to say, and the result is a greatly enhanced version of ecNet for eCapture."

The ecNet Client can now be customized using VBScript, which runs directly inside the browser. For example, this allows users to query a database from their remote sites to retrieve index information or perform custom field validation. ecNet also features drag and drop" functionality, which gives users the ability to shuffle pages within batches. ecNet features a new look as changes have been made to the user interface as well.

Support has also been added in ecNet for Microsofts Secure Socket Layer. This ensures secure transmission of document images sent over the Internet to the central site.

ecNet consists of two components: ecNet Client and ecNet Server. The ecNet Client is
automatically downloaded and installed as soon as a user connects to the ecNet Server, and runs entirely within Microsofts Internet Explorer (no imaging plug-in needed). ecNet Client uses the industry standard TWAIN (www.twain.org) interface to capture documents from desktop scanners or other TWAIN compliant input devices.

eCapture 4.2 enables companies to implement a production-level document capture system, a remote document capture system, or a hybrid capture system that incorporates both environments. For example, a company with many remote offices, such as an insurance company, can use ecNet to scan claim documents at their remote offices, and then use ecIndex to index and begin processing the claim documents at their corporate headquarters.

Captovation will demonstrate ecNet and the entire eCapture 4.2 product line in booth number 2346 at the 2002 AIIM Conference and Exposition being held in San Francisco from March 6 through March 8.
