Kofax Named 2005 "ISV Partner of the Year" by Fujitsu Imaging Products Group for Ascent Capture and VRS 4.0 Plus
Irvine, CA, March 8, 2006 - Kofax, the world's largest information capture vendor, today announced it was named Independent Software Vendor (ISV) Partner of the Year for 2005 by Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc., a market leader in document imaging scanners and services. The Fujitsu Annual Channel Awards recognize top-performing resellers, distributors and integrators, specifically acknowledging companies who exemplify a true commitment to innovation that results in the highest sales and world-class business performance.
Kofax received the prestigious ISV Partner of the Year award from Fujitsu for its overall attach rate of Fujitsu scanners to their Ascent Capture solution sales. Kofax was presented with the award during a private ceremony at the 4th Annual One Capture Alliance Premier Partner Conference, held February 8-10 in Las Vegas.
Ascent Capture accelerates business processes by collecting paper documents, forms and e-documents; transforming them into accurate, retrievable information; and delivering the content into an organization's business applications and databases.
Kofax's VRS 4.0 Plus update makes scanning more efficient and expands the existing capabilities of VRS. VRS 4.0 Plus greatly accelerates the processing of documents, cutting the amount of time spent on rescanning by automatically handling blank or rotated pages, as well as white-or black-background scanners, and improves their productivity. This version taps into the widely under-utilized color capabilities of nearly all scanners by offering intelligent color detection and color saturation features.
"We have long enjoyed our partnership with Fujitsu and is honored to receive this award that reflects our market leadership and continued efforts to bring the best possible information capture products to our partners," said David Talarico, senior director of sales at Kofax. "Attaching a quality Fujitsu scanner with Kofax's advanced capture products has become a quality combination that our customers trust."
"2005 was a great year for Fujitsu for many reasons, and we want to recognize those outstanding companies that helped make it happen," said Victor Kan, vice president of sales and marketing, Imaging Products Group, Fujitsu Computer Products of America. "The Annual Channel Awards represent more than just sales and growth figures. Kofax has demonstrated a true partnership with Fujitsu and we look forward to another bright and prosperous year together."
