Imagine Solutions' Encapture Technology Provides Critical ECM Building Block

Imagine Solutions (www.imaginesolutions.com), an enterprise content management (ECM) solutions provider, announced the introduction of Encapture, the company's brand-name enterprise capture solution that offers a key building block for enterprise content management.

"Encapture is a proven enterprise capture solution that significantly increases the speed that business information can be digitally captured, processed, and securely routed. We wanted to introduce Encapture at the 92nd Annual Mortgage Banker's Convention as it provides a critical component in helping mortgage bankers develop one-day closing options, electronic loan transfers and branch automation," said Rick Smith, president and CEO of Imagine Solutions.

"The introduction of Encapture continues Imagine Solutions' industry leadership in providing ECM infrastructure and services that help companies deploy a true information management platform," added Smith.

Encapture is based on Imagine Solutions' forthcoming version 2.1 capture technology which provides added functionality and upgrades the platform with more robust security, administration, and web services-based connectivity.

The upgrades include

  • Improved scalability to support larger site installations
  • Flexible, lightweight deployment model
  • Enhanced single sign-on (SSO) and authentication
  • Improved connectivity to ECM and BPM systems
"Encapture enables our clients to quickly deploy an enterprise-wide platform for capturing critical information," said Smith. "The capture element of an ECM strategy is now at the forefront as companies realize that you can't apply process or content management until you go digital," concluded Smith.

Imagine Solutions' customer Tom Tuohy with CTX Mortgage uses Encapture to close loans quickly which benefits both his company and customers.

"CTX Mortgage has always been committed to making the mortgage loan process as simple as possible for our customers," said Tuohy, CTX Mortgage EVP and CIO. "Encapture was a key component that enabled CTX Mortgage to close loans in one day. It helped us stay ahead of the competition and drive costs savings to the bottom line," added Tuohy.

Encapture is commonly used as the front-end capture component for large- scale ECM implementations, providing a rapid ROI and complementary functionality to ECM and capture software from FileNet Corporation and Kofax. When coupled with scanners from Kodak or other leading manufacturers, Encapture provides the capture and imaging infrastructure needed for companies to deploy ECM solutions that improve the way information is managed across the enterprise.
