A new entry-level document management software product from Kyocera Document Solutions Europe aims to streamline business-critical document processes for enterprises.

Kyocera Workflow Manager is designed to be simply and rapidly integrated into the workplace. It claims to minimise the need for complex customisation by providing four pre-configured modules that are tailor-made for the requirements of individual departments: contract management, HR management, sales and distribution and procurement.

The four modules can be used either together or independently and provide a suite of pre-packaged functions for fast and easy document access, process automation, document archival and workflow management. A ‘Smart Search’ function employs full-text search, indexes and Windows integration to reduce time spent locating files.   

The solution is compatible with Microsoft Office and Microsoft Windows, as well as all web-browsers, and is based on the nscale platform of sister company Ceyoniq, acquired by Kyocera in 2015. 

‘Document management is becoming an increasingly integral business function,’ commented Shamit Bagchi, expert product marketing ECM/DMS & capturing, Kyocera Document Solutions Europe B.V. ‘Kyocera Workflow Manager can be quickly integrated into a businesses’ daily routine and is a great entry point for businesses that are looking to streamline their document management. The end-result is increased efficiency throughout the business, better interdepartmental collaboration and more time to focus on core business projects.’

The software, which provides multi-lingual support and country-specific specialisation, was launched in Germany in May 2016 and is now available in the UK, France, Netherlands, Spain and other countries within the EU.
