File cabinets full of paper documents can quickly overtake valuable office space. Plus, accessing these documents can be a challenge. When digitally archiving documents is the solution, it must be easy to do and be inexpensive to implement and maintain.

Key Challenges

  • Meeting regulatory requirements involving paper-based information
  • Adding paper-based information into existing electronic content management system
  • Reduce high costs of traditional fax and overnight delivery
  • Reduce high costs of paper storage and archiving
  • Finding documents can be frustrating, time-consuming, and inexact
  • Inefficient workflow and collaboration due to slow dissemination of hardcopy and digital information throughout the organization
Xerox SMARTsend software makes sharing documents easier than ever so more information can be accessible to more people. Optimize your network investment and take your business processes into the future with SMARTsend software.
  • Save time by defining numerous destinations and file formats in one workflow
  • Save on mailing costs by sending documents electronically instead of through the mail
  • Create storage space by converting hard copy documents in file cabinets to electronic format
  • Faster search and retrieval of documents by adding indexing information (metadata) when you scan them
  • More efficient workflow and collaboration because hardcopy and digital documents can be quickly retrieved or sent to a single shared repository of information from any EIP-enabled multifunction device

Why Choose Xerox?

  • Industry reports confirm how this innovative Xerox solution can help your office. Show me the report:
    • BLI Solutions Report (PDF)
  • Send documents to multiple destinations in different formats all in the same workflow. Many competitive solutions make you re-send for each destination for format…a very time-consuming process.
  • Easy to install and maintain with no additional software to load on the user's desktop, unlike some competitors.
  • Compatible with the most devices - over 40 Xerox WorkCentre Pro (including color-enabled devices) and Document Centre devices can be used with SMARTsend. The competition's compatibility within their own product line is much more limited.
  • Flexible workflow publication options (device workflows with templates and/or PaperWare) that competitors can't match.
  • Easier and faster development of custom user interface software than most competitors because the Xerox Extensible Interface Platform is based on web standards
  • Scan to Home button, which most competitors don't have, simplifies scanning for walk-up users by automatically sending scans to a pre-defined home destination.
  • Xerox-exclusive TrueMatch search and retrieval workflow can retrieve documents that match a document scanned at the device or documents that contain similar information.
  • Easier purchase process than the competition because your Xerox representative will handle both your hardware and software needs
  • Faster problem solving with one point of contact for hardware and/or software support – unlike competitive offerings that have separate contacts for hardware and software support

Xerox award-winning copiers, printers, and multifunction printers include flexible platforms that accommodate a wide variety of software solutions. Software functionality may vary by product model. Contact your local sales representative for detailed compatibility information.
