From storing documents to automating workflow processes, the use of document imaging technology is gaining ground.
According to a recent TechRepublic survey, over 40 percent of the survey’s 2,813 respondents said that their organizations use document imaging technology.
The informal survey, which ran in TechRepublic’s IT Manager community last month, also asked respondents how their organizations use imaging technology and if organizations operating without the technology will implement it. (See Figure A.)
