How to Get Started With a Scan at Home Solution

It's looking more and more likely that remote working is here to stay, even in the aftermath of the pandemic. For many, it's created a new convenient and interesting way of working that doesn't rely on commuting or going into an office for the best part of 8 hours. 

With this in mind, we're seeing a lot of organisation's transitioning to a blend of office-based and remote working that relies on having the right equipment in the right places, and one device that a lot of users need at home is a scanner!

Many departments rely on the ability to scan paper documents – in fact, a lot of organisations are even transporting boxes of paper to the homes of their employees when offices cannot be accessed in emergency situations. These papers often have to be processed and then scanned into another system or shared via email.

This isn't the most efficient way of scanning documents into the system as it can be time-consuming and things can get missed or errors can be made. 

Ideally, what home workers need is an easy-to-set-up device that allows them to scan documents directly into line-of-business systems without additional systems or IT support.
