The perfect partnership

Invu are the fastest growing electronic document management software company, now with over 40,000 end users worldwide. As you would expect the system allows you to scan paperwork, archive it and retrieve it but it does all of this in a very clever way with indexing specific to each document type being applied. Every page is run through an OCR system which then indexes every word in every document automatically. Every word is then available for searching.

In addition to paper Invu also allows you to store e-mails, office documents such as Word and Excel, pdf's and any other windows document, image or sound file.

Advanced features of the product include a workflow solution which allows routed document processing for approval or checking by other users on the system on determined conditions.

Invu has chosen Sicon as the exclusive UK developer partner for the Sage product range. Our first project will be the integration of Invu with Sage MMS after which we will look at the other products in the Sage range including Line 50, Act and MME. The Invu product already links to the MS Office suite of applications and includes a 'Code Free' facility to enable search links to many other applications.

Scanned documents take up storage space on your server hard disk. In order to give you some idea of the space required it is estimated that 3 filing cabinets of paperwork will take up 1Gig of hard disk storage. With most new single hard disks now offering in excess of 100Gig of storage space this should not really present any problems for most businesses.

The results achieved by using Invu:

Improved use of time: time save searching for documents in filing cabinets and desks to find it's not there
Improved use of space
Data is stored electronically in one central location making "hard copy" filing obsolete. Invu also works seamlessly alongside existing systems using the unique "code free" interface.
Improved customer service
Invu enables you to answer customer queries on the spot with a full audit trail of past communications at your fingertips.
Improved efficiency
No more "lost" files or different versions of the "same" file on a multitude of hard drives. Invu also cuts out costs like paper and other storage consumables.
Improved data security
Invu is secure and comes with full backup so everything can be instantaneously duplicated and filed securely off-site.

How Invu will integrate with Sage products
