Benefits of Network Document Scanners

Ease of Use

Network Scanners provide many ways in which the user experience is much easier than using USB-attached scanners.  Most network scanners have large touchscreen displays with big buttons where little, or no operator training is required, to ‘push’ scanned documents to destinations. 

Total cost of ownership

One of the main benefits of Network Scanners is the ability to eliminate the need for extra hardware such as a scanning computer, scanner software drivers or scanner software applications. Network Scanners do not require any of these components so there is no extra expense.

Integrated with Business Process

With easy to use operation and using optional SDK or Web API, Network Scanners can be integrated directly into business process applications. Now organizations can embed document scanning capability within line of business applications for enhanced business efficiency.

Uptime/Reliability

Designed as a single function device for scanning documents, network scanners are generally much more reliable than multi-function devices.  As many of us have experienced, the print functionality of multi-function devices causes downtime due to technical breakdown, rendering the scanner useless.
