Online OCR provides accuracy and capability at cost savings

Having an OCR program can increase productivity and accuracy in the office, but only if the OCR software itself is productive and accurate. While many of the programs are excellent, they are also expensive to implement. One solution that is trending more and more is the use of online OCR. This type of service can provide you with an OCR API that is safe, secure and performs as well as you want it to.

Why are cloud based programs less expensive?
The bane of every operations manager is the budget for software. It can run up costs quickly, and OCR is expensive. Cloud based software provides a cost saving alternative without having to cut corners in quality. With online OCR, the software is server based so there is only one installation to do. Access through multiple log-ins and mobile devices are made possible by advanced OCR API technology, such as that found in OCR-IT's 2.0 API. This is a company that has taken a standard tool and worked to evolve it into a next generation resource.

Why OCR?
With the OCR API in 2.0 you can do much more than scan in a document. It can recognize over 8 different image types and documents, plus it has the capacity to recognize over 200 languages. With handwriting recognition reaching new heights of accuracy, you can even scan in a hand written note in Chinese and produce a text based version of the document. That means that all of your notes and records can be stored efficiently and with great accuracy. If you are looking to boost productivity, providing your team with online OCR is one of the best ways.

Why does online OCR boost productivity?
To begin with it eliminates the step of having someone enter in a document to the system. It even eliminates the step of having to funnel documentation through to the one person running an OCR API. Online OCR puts that power into everyone's hands. The process to create and then scan a document and drawing becomes easy. This boosts accuracy in the addition of information to your database, eliminates one to two steps in your process of recording information, and increases the ability of your employees to access stored information online. Since everything is online, employees can also access files using their mobile devices. Even better, OCR-ITs 2.0 program allows them to use the online OCR from their devices. This turns hand held mobile devices into portable OCR API scanners. Snap a picture of a check, bill, drawing or document and it can be stored in the online OCR server. Not only is it stored, but it immediately becomes available for review or use by any other member logged on.

Increased security and improved accuracy
Online OCR is very secure. The experts at OCR-IT know that data security is an essential in the business world and have constructed their OCR API to meet or exceed security standards. When you combine this with the increased accuracy of the scans and the flexibility of original documents that can be scanned with 2.0, you have a powerful tool to transform your business.
