MindTouch, the industry’s leading open source alternative to Microsoft SharePoint, today announced that it has partnered with Fujitsu to integrate its collaboration platform with Fujitsu’s ScanSnap family of scanners. This integration delivers a customer-ready solution for the upload, storage and sharing of electronic data sources into business-ready, web-based documents. Now, team members can view and edit documents regardless of their physical location.
Until today, scanning a document typically meant it was sent to a corporate file, destined to live out its life as a static image. MindTouch and Fujitsu have removed one of the biggest adoption barriers to scanning: they enable scanned documents to be edited, shared and actionable throughout the enterprise.
“Using MindTouch with ScanSnap allows multiple parties to edit uploaded documents while retaining a complete version history – all within a MindTouch page – and maintains complete IT governance and security over their critical documents, without the environmental and time-consuming drawbacks of making copies and sending faxes,” said Mike Puterbaugh, vice president of marketing, MindTouch. “Our partnership with Fujitsu is another example of how enterprise collaboration tools are being integrated into the mainstream business market, at the right price and with great success.”
“Our new ScanSnap S1300 portable scanner using MindTouch’s collaboration technology offers more scanning functionality and platform flexibility for teams that work together across the web,” said Michael Sidejas, product marketing manager, Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc. “It was a simple choice to partner with MindTouch on this initiative, given the company’s collaboration leadership.”
MindTouch is the industry’s leading provider of enterprise collaboration solutions in a market that continues to grow rapidly as more companies are operating under "lite" IT budgets for the foreseeable future. Enterprise spending on Web 2.0 technologies is predicted by Forrester to grow strongly over the next five years, reaching $4.6 billion globally by 2013.
MindTouch and Fujitsu will showcase the ScanSnap S1300 featuring MindTouch collaboration technology at Macworld 2010 in San Francisco at Moscone Center on February 11-13. The solution will be available to view on the Apple Platform in booth number 853.
