How Laserfiche® is revolutionizing content management and process automation
More and more companies are undergoing a digital transformation. That makes digitizing, managing, and storing documents more important than ever. At Ricoh, we understand the value of both paper and digital documents and know modern businesses require both to survive. That’s why we partner with companies like Laserfiche.
What is Laserfiche? Laserfiche is the global leader in content management and process automation. They are revolutionizing how businesses manage digital documents and streamline time-consuming processes. Here’s how Ricoh and Laserfiche are partnering to help our customers manage the movement of documents from the physical realm to the digital.
What is Laserfiche?
Laserfiche is the leading SaaS (Software as a Service) provider of ECM (enterprise content management) and business process automation. It provides robust digital document management and storage, allowing organizations to handle large volumes of data across multiple documents. Simply put, physical documents enter and exit a document management system via Ricoh devices. For everything that happens in between, Laserfiche has a solution.
Its secure cloud storage is certified to meet the requirements of government regulations such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and DoD 5015.2 from the U.S. Department of Defense.
Businesses of any size can benefit from Laserfiche’s customizable process automation. This feature allows organizations to automate routine tasks like sending documents for a signature or gathering data from forms. With automation, the amount of time a user must spend processing documents is greatly reduced, freeing them up for more important tasks. The best part is there’s no programming required. Laserfiche’s no-code automation is easy to add to any workflow.
Laserfiche’s customers range from government agencies to Fortune 1,000 companies. The Laserfiche RMS (Records Management System) provides on-premises and cloud implementations. It is supported by the Ricoh ecosystem of document management products.
