Hi
I would like to try out. It will be of great use if there is any  comparison with Ephesoft or KOFAX functions

[stallapragada]

Quikdrop is an ingestion tool and Scan is an included way of ingestion. Apart from scan and release, you can also drag and drop document(s) from desktop / email client. Please refer to the feature set mentioned in the thread above. Also, if you go and register in the support site mentioned in the thread, you will be able to download Installation and User guides for Quikdrop.

Hi
thanks for the update, I also like to know does it uses CIFS to drag and drop. My experience with CIFS usage is that it slows the system, when more people uses the system
I will try out this addon, will give u my feedback

[stallapragada]

It does not use CIFS. Please try and let me know.

-Thanks

Hi,

Does it support batch scanning? I mean the user can put into his scanner a stack of documents and the output should be a list of files in Alfresco repository.

Thanks,
Giang.

Quikdrop for Alfresco does not have a batch scan feature. However, we do have an enterprise version of this product that does have the Batch Scan features. However, that is not free. If you would like to see it, we can probably set up a demo. Drop an email to srikant@introspeqt.com and we can schedule at a convenient time for a demo.
