Our imaging software, called IMIGITtm, was developed by POH in the late 1980's and has been updated regularly ever since. It has one of the largest installed bases of any imaging package on the market today, with nearly 5,000 installed sites already up and running. IMIGIT is a very durable, "industrial strength" imaging package. It is designed for high-end clients who need to store hundreds of thousands, or even millions of pages of documents on-line, ready for immediate access. Some of our clients have more than 30 million pages of information stored on-line and can locate any page in 5 seconds.
Imaging provides a number of tools to minimize the amount of paper that must be handled. Paper handling and storage is expensive. To manage the paper problem, the only real choice in the past has been to hire more clerical staff. Today, there is a better choice. Imaging can solve the paper problem and can do so for less than it costs to pay for just 2 clerical staff positions.
Within the imaging system, the information is organized into file cabinets, file folders, documents, and pages just as in the paper world. This standard hierarchy makes it easy for a non-technical person to quickly grasp the basic concepts of the imaging system. There is no limit to the number of cabinets, folders, documents, or pages that can be stored in the imaging system. The only limitation is the amount of disk space that is available. As a rough estimate, a 150 gigabyte hard disk has enough room to store about 3.2 million pages on-line.
