 Laserfiche Avante
Laserfiche Avante brings together our industry-leading document management system and powerful, fully integrated Workflow functionality. Whether you have a staff of one or one hundred, you’ll simplify complex tasks, promote better decision making and keep your organization moving forward.
Laserfiche Avante’s licensing is based on the number of people who will be using the system which makes it possible to calculate the cost of most systems by doing little more than counting employees.
Named user licenses include document management, Workflow, Snapshot and e-mail functionality,
all for $500 per license. Servers are sold individually and support industry-standard Microsoft and Oracle database platforms.
- The Laserfiche Server centralizes management of multiple types of information, including digitized paper documents, electronic documents, e-mail and digital audio and video files.
- The desktop-based Laserfiche Client offers users intuitive, instant access to information.
Each user has their own connection through the Laserfiche Client, so they are always
able to access their information.
- Laserfiche Workflow promotes constant productivity with rules-based document
routing, e-mail notification and activity monitoring.
- Laserfiche Scanning is an intuitive scanning interface to add paper documents into your Laserfiche repository. An array of tools enables you to enhance images, so you get
the most accurate text capture possible.
- Laserfiche Snapshot creates archival TIFF images of electronic documents, without
repetitive printing and scanning.

documents stored in the Laserfiche repository.

well as the software updates, enhancements and forums available on the Laserfiche
support site.

Web Access also includes an industry-leading integration that adds imaging functionality, records management and enhanced workflow capabilities to Microsoft SharePoint.

ensure information security and simplify regulatory compliance.
For a fixed price, you can add automated document capture and processing, portable media publishing or fully integrated, DoD 5015.2-certified records management.

Moving to Enterprise Content Management
And when your system grows large enough, you can easily upgrade to Laserfiche Rio enterprise content management—which includes unlimited Laserfiche servers and repositories, Web-based document management and Audit Trail tracking—so you’ll never outgrow your Laserfiche solution.
Laserfiche RIO
Enterprise Strategy Meets Departmental Flexibility
Enterprise content management (ECM) systems promise to help organizations better manage their information, but systems intended to standardize business processes often end up confined to just one or two departments, because they simply aren’t flexible enough to meet the diverse needs of individual departments and offices.
The Rio ECM system is different:
-
Implement a global point of control for all your organization’s information, without forcing localized groups to change their existing business processes.
-
Extend the core Laserfiche strengths—information management, document imaging,
DoD-certified records management, business process management, system activity monitoring and Web publishing—throughout your enterprise.
-
Calculate the cost of most systems by doing little more than counting employees, with
easy-to-budget, easy-to-purchase named user licensing.
-
Use the unlimited Laserfiche Servers included with the Rio system to accommodate
satellite offices, create failover environments or implement pilot projects.
-
Enable departmental staff or analysts to customize their individual views to suit their
unique filing systems, implement customized workflows and accommodate specialized business processes, without interfering with centralized administration and control.
-
Complement your Microsoft SharePoint installation with document imaging and archiving, superior search functionality and a user-friendly interface.
Laserfiche Team
Laserfiche Team is a scalable document imaging solution that delivers the same effficiency,
security and integration benefits as Laserfiche United on a departmental level. When business demands, Laserfiche Team is ready to grow with your needs.
Available for the Windows platform, Laserfiche's Team systems use a powerful client-server architecture to provide multiple users with simultaneous access to documents in a single
database. Laserfiche Team systems allow you to customize your users based on their function;
a full user can add, manipulate and search for documents while a retrieval user can search and
print. This combination of full-user and retrieval user licenses allows multiple scanning and import stations to be used at the same time that the system is being used for document retrieval.
Laserfiche Team utilizes the powerful Microsoft SQL Desktop Engine (MSDE) as its database
engine. MSDE comes bundled with Laserfiche and is installed with the Laserfiche Server.
This networked system is designed specifically for use with networks based on the Microsoft platform like Windows NT or 2000. This product is a high-performance document-imaging system.
The client-server structure allows the server to perform the bulk of data-processing tasks,
minimizing network traffic and offering users quicker response time. Networked systems provide simultaneous access to documents from two users to hundreds. Its modular design and scalability allows this solution to meet and grow with your imaging needs.
Laserfiche United
View an Overview of Laserfiche United >>
Laserfiche United is the centerpiece of a comprehensive document management solution
that helps you use information more effectively. Designed for enterprise and multi-department
installations, United enables you to easily capture, store and distribute content of any kind,
resulting in more efficient business processes and greater productivity. Minimal bandwidth
requirements limit the load on existing servers, networks and applications, while support for
industry-standard Microsoft and Oracle database platforms maximizes the value of current IT
investments.
Help Staff Work More Efficiently
Designed with the user experience firmly in mind, Laserfiche easily adapts to existing work processes.
An intuitive interface incorporates familiar Windows features, from flexible folder structures to
customizable toolbars and column displays. Seamless integration with Office applications enables
users to send files to Laserfiche at the click of a button, while support for
a wide range of both standard
and specialized scanners allows users to rapidly digitize paper documents, as well as legacy microfilm
and microfiche.
Users can locate information equally quickly. In addition to simply browsing the intuitive folder structure,
users can search the repository using whatever criteria they find most useful. The Laserfiche
search engine not only ranks results in order of relevance, but also enables users to quickly refine
searches to pinpoint exactly what they need.
Simplify Information Management
Storing information in multiple, often incompatible systems not only creates unnecessary overhead—it
also increases risk. With Laserfiche, you minimize this risk by managing content
across its life cycle in
a common repository. Centralizing information helps users access it more easily, resulting in greater
productivity and better decision making. It also increases both the transparency and security of your
organization’s business processes, enabling administrators to assess the effectiveness of internal
control mechanisms and demonstrate regulatory compliance.
Laserfiche reduces administrative overhead in other ways as well. For example, administrators
can
quickly set up new repositories, and they can create or replicate folder structures or entire directories
in just a few steps. Active Directory integration enables them to assign Laserfiche
rights and privileges
directly to Windows trustees, eliminating the need to maintain multiple
accounts for each user. And a
unified metadata model helps them quickly organize information,
which is key to optimizing work
processes and providing faster, more comprehensive service.
Deploy Quickly and Maximize Return on Investment
United readily fits into your existing networked environment, without requiring custom programming or
expensive hardware and software upgrades. It’s compatible with Windows XP, 2003, 2008 and Vista, and
supports both Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle database management systems. To simplify firewall
configuration, it uses the HTTP/WebDAV communication protocol, which also optimizes performance over
wide area networks. Perhaps most importantly, it easily scales to accommodate new users and highvolume
repository growth, helping you quickly adapt to changing business conditions—without creating
extra work for the IT department.
