Integration Across Your Entire Campus
Perceptive Software has a method for seamlessly integrating ImageNow into your existing Datatel Colleague applications. Our most common integration approach uses ImageNow’s patented, non-programmatic method of image-enabling, which involves a one-way transfer of data from Datatel Colleague to ImageNow. However, programmatic options are also available.
The universal integration of ImageNow provides a number of benefits for Datatel Colleague users campuswide, such as:
- Single-click desktop integration drastically reduces time commitment and complexity of implementation.
- Intuitive functionality and comprehensive training minimises the learning curve for users, so productivity can continue relatively unchanged throughout implementation.
- Users retrieve and view documents directly from the Datatel Colleague application, keeping focus on the current work environment and minimising distractions.
- Faster access to relevant documents means faster processing of applications, student records, expense reports — whatever documents you handle — to speed approval, posting, payment and overall project completion.
- Immediate documentation retrieval from any screen enables timely and accurate response to customer inquiries, improving satisfaction.
- System is configured, managed and expanded by you — eliminating long-term service contracts and allowing you to dictate the type and level of support you require as needed.
