FileWorks and Kodak Team to Help Businesses Organize and Manage Documents in a Central Web-Based File Cabinet

Streamlined document scanning coupled with secure online file sharing to result from new alliance

FileWorks Online bundled with a Kodak scanner offers a complete answer for organizations seeking to become more efficient and effective.

Incline Village, NV (PRWEB) August 7, 2008 -- Document management software developer FileWorks has teamed with Eastman Kodak Company's Document Imaging business as a Kodak Authorized Independent Software Vendor to provide complete document management solutions for business.

Getting organized with FileWorks Online, removes the expense and burden of IT network management from the organization, protects and secures the company's files and documents, and enables everyone to work more efficiently and effectively. FileWorks Online starts at less than the price of a cup of coffee a day ($29.99 per month) and a free month trial is available on the FileWorks website.

FileWorks Scanning Software works with recommended Kodak scanners to convert paper documents to digital files, storing them in FileWorks Online--a virtual file cabinet. The easy, "paperless office" with online accessibility is here.

FileWorks Online is a virtual file cabinet that serves as a central repository for all essential files and documents. Accessible on a permission-only basis, FileWorks Online increases file sharing and collaboration with internal partners and employees as well as with affiliates outside the company network, such as suppliers, consultants and contractors.

"More businesses are incorporating document capture and management into existing workflow processes. It's important that these applications are flexible, quickly connectable and functional to offer the best solution for their needs," said Roger Markham, Marketing Manager for Distributed Capture, US&C, Document Imaging, Kodak's Graphic Communications Group. "Pairing Kodak document scanners with FileWorks Scanning Software expands the circle of choice and simplifies the use of distributed scanning technologies available to customers by directly integrating third-party software."

As an online document management tool, FileWorks Online is also equipped with productivity tools such as notifications, notes, electronic signatures, and optional toll-free fax numbers, in addition to the free scanning software. The site can be branded with a company's own logo and can be linked from the company's own website--thus appearing as a company's own custom tool. An audit trail of actions relating to each file or document in the system allows users to share files with confidence.

"This partnership brings unique benefits to companies looking to implement or improve their document imaging processes," said Len Mayo, Sales Manager at FileWorks. "FileWorks Online bundled with a Kodak scanner offers a complete answer for organizations seeking to become more efficient and effective."
