Has improved document scanning accuracy with advanced OCR capabilities
IBM needs to improve on scanning and reading accuracy for unstructured documents. Additionally, an important missing feature is the ability to merge documents and present data across different UI screens. This is especially beneficial for customer onboarding where documents are scanned not all at once but periodically. Incorporating automation could also aid in this area.

Efficient data management enhances document processing capabilities and integration ease
The data extraction feature is what I prefer most about the KODAK Info Input Solution. I also appreciate the integrations, data validation, and onboarding process. In terms of using the solution's advanced data extraction capabilities, the manual entry during the extraction process makes it easy to extract data from documents, such as from email, scanner, or mobile devices, as well as cloud storage. The extraction of data may also occur on the APR systems, which helps extract the actual data and enter it in the system compared to manual data entry. This automation helps get data directly from other systems and ecosystems where data resides, allowing it to be imported into the same system, where it can be easily validated and directly linked to existing systems. The KODAK Info Input Solution collects data automatically, which saves time, unlike when someone has to enter data manually. It saves approximately 25% of time. Regarding integration with existing systems, KODAK Info Input Solution integrates with most services such as Microsoft, Google, and Amazon, as well as other tools such as Salesforce. This integration is easy, and these connectors are straightforward to configure, helping manage documents from all those services. It becomes easy because of its simple connections. The solution's intelligent automation feature is faster compared to other services. Because it is faster and works quickly, it becomes effortless to use the intelligent system since everything operates smoothly upon following commands. The multi-language support feature is particularly useful because some documents are sent and some onboarding processes are done in different languages, making it valuable to understand the documents sent. The multi-language support is important for ensuring compliance with various regulatory requirements because, with the system supporting multiple languages, users can translate various languages and access documents and services from different locations easily, accommodating team members from diverse backgrounds who may not speak English, such as those who only know Chinese or French.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"One valuable feature of IBM Datacap is the OCR capability, along with its ability to read fields from documents."
"The administration of the application following an error is most valuable. We are able to know easily when something is stuck in the system."
"It is highly extensible, which we found to be most valuable. It is a very extensible solution because it is based on configurable rule sets. We were able to amend and adjust the solution and very easily add custom code and custom components. It does require some programming experience, but we found that not to be an issue. We liked its extensibility."
"The OCR extractions are very good, almost 100% accurate now."
"Datacap is good at processing unstructured data. You can build up some nice data flows, and it is simple to configure. The tool adopts a low-code approach, but you can do a lot of coding if you want to customize and automate your flows. Datacap also has the flexibility to integrate."
"I work for an insurance company, and we use Datacap for document processing."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to capture data, which changes all the time into different formats."
"The second thing that I like about Datacap is the fingerprint capture which is easy to configure on Datacap. From the form of the document, if a document is redundant in the same department, we can configure the capture based on the form of the documents"
"What makes KODAK Info Input Solution perfect is that it has comprehensive capabilities, features, and tools including its own printers and scanners that can easily connect and share information."
"I find the pricing of KODAK Info Input Solution to be friendly and affordable because before implementing the software in our company, our system manager discussed it with us and we found the pricing to be reasonable, which is why we recommended it."
"The KODAK Info Input Solution collects data automatically, which saves time, unlike when someone has to enter data manually."
"I rate KODAK Info Input Solution a ten out of ten."
"The KODAK Info Input Solution's customer support is the best."
"The KODAK Info Input Solution offers fast workflows for extracting information from even the largest documents."
"By using KODAK Info Input Solution, we can scan the document, which automatically enters all details, allowing us to avoid mistakes in this way."
"The KODAK Info Input Solution offers fast workflows for extracting information from even the largest documents."
 

Cons

"There should be an increase in the capacity of the workflows. Datacap is a little limited in this aspect. So, you cannot really implement all the possibilities."
"When a client's requirement is not available in Datacap, out-of-the-box actions should be simpler to implement and not very complex."
"What could be improved in IBM Datacap from a technical perspective is having everything together all in one place, rather than having several different interfaces. The addition of cloud-based OCR technology would also make this solution better. There's also room for improvement for their technical support."
"I give the scalability of the solution a six out of ten."
"The reading efficiency of the solution needs to be improved."
"Going forward, IBM needs to ensure that the output is perfect (as it can make the product) while staying true to platform's core."
"The solution's scalability needs improvement."
"Datacap's technology seems a little behind the industry. It's still using the old .NET framework. They should move to .NET Core and start integrating some machine learning. You can do some integration yourself, but you expect a solution to include the latest machine-learning approaches if you're paying reasonable money for it."
"Integrating KODAK Info Input Solution with other software, such as Laserfiche, presents challenges due to inadequate documentation and an unintuitive web services interface."
"The KODAK Info Input Solution can improve its connection with scanners. It connects most effectively with Kodak's own scanners, specifically the S S S SMAX Scanners, while connections with other brands, such as Epson or HP, can take more time."
"Sometimes there is an accuracy problem with KODAK Info Input Solution. Sometimes while connecting to the database, it shows errors, such as SQL login failed, your port is blocked, or not reachable."
"Integrating KODAK Info Input Solution with other software, such as Laserfiche, presents challenges due to inadequate documentation and an unintuitive web services interface."
"The most significant area for improvement in the KODAK Info Input Solution is its ability to support custom definitions and auto-learn."
"The only area I think KODAK Info Input Solution could improve on is making their user interface more user-friendly and offering full customer customization of features."
"The most significant area for improvement in the KODAK Info Input Solution is its ability to support custom definitions and auto-learn."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an expensive solution."
"This solution offers seamless integration with other enterprise products, which is my area of responsibility, focusing on government sector projects. Larger enterprise projects don't pose problems. It might be suitable for small businesses as well."
"If you want IBM Datacap on cloud, which is a service run by IBM, the price can be quite expensive, but if you want to just purchase the licenses and own those yourself, then the price is very competitive."
"We were using the User Value Unit licensing, which means we get charged per active user of the system, and if I'm not mistaken, we also had it for the rule runner service. They had a PVU license model, which is a processor value unit. For each process that we have in our system, we pay a certain amount of money. We found the pricing to be quite steep. It was really an expensive solution in comparison to Kofax, which had a different licensing model and was actually cheaper overall because they charge per page and not per user and per process."
"Pricing needs to stay competitive."
"Pricing depends on how much we use it. We pay per bulk quantity. We pay as you go. Therefore, it sort of depends on our usage of it."
"It varies, and it depends on the client's requirements and negotiations. Nowadays, Datacap is also included in the IBM Cloud Pak for Business Automation."
"This solution is the most expensive in the market."
"Although KODAK Info Input Solution's pricing is competitive within the industry's consumption-based model, its approach is overly complex."
"The pricing of KODAK Info Input Solution in Mexico is very expensive, and the government's purchasing process requires convincing many stakeholders."
