SHAWNEE, KANSAS — (17 Sep 2007) Perceptive Software today announced that the University of Cambridge’s Sidney Sussex College has chosen to deploy its ImageNow® enterprise document management, imaging and workflow software to streamline its student administration and accounting processes.
Following a successful pitch to provide the software to the college, ImageNow was selected to replace the existing paper-based systems.
“We needed a simple solution to problems arising from our current paper intensive systems,” explains Dr Keith Straughan, Senior Tutor at Sidney Sussex College. “ImageNow was the obvious choice for us. It causes minimum disruption, is quick to deploy and easy to use. We haven’t incurred the extra cost of bringing in a systems administrator, as I’ve been able to configure the software myself.”
ImageNow will immediately improve the efficiency of the college’s student administration processes. For example, tutors will no longer need to visit a central office to view paper copies of new students’ details. Instead they will be able to access all files electronically at their desks.
Perceptive Software’s extensive experience in the higher education sector made it an obvious choice for Sidney Sussex College. The University is now considering opportunities for wider deployment throughout administrative departments in its central offices, the faculties and the 31 independent colleges.
Perceptive Software European Director, Paul Hunt, says, “We are delighted that Sidney Sussex College has selected ImageNow for its document management needs. Having demonstrated how adaptable and efficient our software is, we hope to further this relationship with the University of Cambridge in the future.
Perceptive Software’s patented LearnModeTM technology allows Sidney Sussex College to incorporate ImageNow without disrupting existing business processes and operations. The non-programmatic integration technology will help facilitate a rapid ImageNow deployment, allowing the college to achieve an immediate return on its investment.
