Create!form's archival product has allowed us to create easily accessible and efficient electronic PDF archives of Create!form generated documents. We were able to eliminate costly overhead typically associated with archiving and retrieving hard copy documents such as invoices and statements. Create!archive provides our staff and customers with instant Internet access to archived documents, which has streamlined our customer service and improved customer satisfaction."

Sera added, "Create!archive v2.7's new archive management features will provide us with a more manageable and efficient archive facility. We look forward to being able to create separate archives to segregate information, including different applications, making it easy to maintain the archive and improve security. The document aging function will enable us to control the amount of document history we make available to customers at any given time."

Mike Maziarka, director, CAP Ventures, said, "CAP Ventures recently completed a study on ROI for e-forms solutions based on the experiences of Create!form customers. We found that Create!archive played a significant role in delivering savings by providing the much needed long-term electronic access to delivered documents. Create!archive v2.7's enhanced features, including the ability to archive PC-based and scanned documents, will extend its value throughout the organization."

o Duplicate Document Identification utility corrals duplicate documents in a separate directory where a user-friendly interface enables the administrator to review and add, replace, retry, delete or accept the document.

o New Document Aging functionality deletes older files or moves them off-line to save valuable disk space, network traffic, and search return speed. Compatible with a wide variety of storage options, from networked servers to CD juke boxes.
