Law firms, corporate or in-house counsel, and government agencies are driven by communication
through documents. While some of these communications happen electronically, many documents
are still paper-based. Firms and counsel need improved methods to handle this paper for more
efficient document workflows and to reduce or eliminate storage requirements.
AccuRoute®, Omtool's document capture and handling solution, combines the best of digital and
paper worlds - allowing for a simple, efficient and controlled electronic distribution into a
variety of document management systems such as EMC Documentum, Hyland OnBase, Interwoven WorkSite,
MS SharePoint, Open Text/Hummingbird, TOWER Software TRIM Context, and WORLDOX. AccuRoute provides
a cost-effective, practical approach to document distribution in even the most complex and
heterogeneous environments.
For instance, one Omtool client - a firm with 175 attorneys in offices worldwide - faced a significant
challenge in allocating enough space in its Washington, D.C., office to store legal documents. The firm
licensed AccuRoute and eliminated the need for document storage space. While the firm reclaimed valuable
office space, it also completely eliminated offsite storage and retrieval costs. Further, IP-related
files are now readily accessible when and where they are needed by their attorneys and administrative staff.
AccuRoute delivers the enterprise-wide accessibility, flexibility, and digital security that law firms
require to cope with the challenges of harnessing their business-critical paper documents. Omtool
converts them to electronic formats, distributes those documents to virtually all document management
systems - including enhanced DMS capabilities with Interwoven and Open Text/Hummingbird - and archives
them for litigation support, e-discovery, and general safekeeping.
