Taskmaster Web

Since 2000, organizations worldwide have been leveraging Datacap’s browser-based capture solution to distribute capture capabilities to remote locations. Scanning documents at their point of origin can increase efficiency, speed input and reduce the cost of shipping documents.  Distributing the verification process to at-home workers or remote locations can increase the efficiency of your workforce.  And the ability to administer a Taskmaster system from any location at any time has many benefits to IT personnel.

Taskmaster Web is a secure, distributed capture solution that supports industry standard browsers and easily integrates with Taskmaster rules-based workflows. No software or active X controls need to be installed on remote PCs. All key capabilities, from user authentication to task queuing, are supported in a browser.

Key Features Include:

• Supports remote scanning, indexing and verification for maximum flexibility
• Integration with Taskmaster Server for recognition, automated validations and a wide variety of export formats
• Truly browser-based with no software or active X controls to install
• Secure with built-in authentication for use over the Internet without a VPN
• Online scanning enables easy management and tracking
• Remote administration from a browser

Remote Document Scanning

With Taskmaster Web, you will not have to compromise on document scanning speed. Even if users are working remotely over the Internet, there's no slowdown. Taskmaster Web saves the images locally, in a "cache" where they are scanned. If bandwidth is an issue during work hours, a separate "upload" task can transfer images when higher bandwidth is available. Taskmaster Web enables "online" remote scanning; from the moment scanning begins, the batch is centrally tracked. If a user does not transfer the batch, then administrators will know exactly where it is, even without synchronization between the central and remote locations.

Remote Document Indexing and Verification

Taskmaster Web lets you distribute indexing or recognition verification. Scan documents remotely, and then transfer them to a central location for data recognition, verification and indexing. Or you can scan centrally, and then distribute work remotely for indexing and verification.

Remote System Administration

To keep a capture system running smoothly, Taskmaster provides a browser-based Job Monitor that lets a supervisor peer into the capture environment and see where all the work is and who is working on it. By applying filters, supervisors can select exactly what work they want to view, even if there are thousands of batches in process. With the proper rights, the supervisor can also delete batches and make direct changes to the properties of a batch. You can check batches in progress, or use the Job Monitor Filter to isolate individual stations or users. You can also run reports that give you up-to-date information on the system, whether you're around the corner or around the world.

Heightened Flexibility

Taskmaster Web is fully integrated with the award winning Taskmaster Capture workflow Ppatform, so you can take full advantage of the flexibility provided by Taskmaster Rules. Taskmaster Web, working in conjunction with Taskmaster, delivers complete flexibility to an organization. All capture tasks, such as scan, index, recognize or verify, can be dynamically assigned to a remote or centralized, thick or thin client workstation.

Secure

Industry standard authentication, via Microsoft SSL (Secure Socket Layer), ensures that all communications are secure. Scanning and indexing can be distributed to any workstation on the Internet with a browser.
Datacap Taskmaster leverages the TWAIN scanning interface. TWAIN is supported by hundreds of scanners - it usually comes with the scanner. That means you save money on the cost of hooking up a scanner, which is very important if you plan on adding remote users for scanning low volumes of documents with a browser.
