About Kofax Business Connect

Kofax makes extending business processes to your mobile workforce intuitive, easy and secure. With Kofax Business Connect, remote workers can securely send documents, photographs, and other electronic files to any number of business applications. Kofax Business Connect provides mobile workforces with the flexibility to complete business forms on their device, virtually eliminating the need for paper-based forms used today. For office workers, Kofax Business Connect offers a secure and convenient means to print sensitive documents “on-demand” to a network printer, authenticating at the multi-functioned device (MFD) using NFC or Bluetooth Low Energy – no more PINs or card swipes!
With Kofax Business Connect you get a total solution, one with a unique combination of features that also extends the power of Kofax ControlSuite (AutoStore, Equitrac, and Output Manager) to smart devices.

NOTE: The free Kofax Business Connect app requires use of the Kofax Business Connect platform for all operations.

Kofax Business Connect Major Capabilities:

Mobile Capture On-The-Go:
With Kofax Business Connect, you can now securely deliver information back into your company’s business processes regardless if it originates as a picture you took on your device, an email attachment, a file you downloaded from a cloud hosted service or from any other application on your mobile device. Kofax Business Connect allows for capturing PDFs, Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel documents. Images can be cleaned up directly on your device (deskew, despecle) and marked up to highlight relevant information.

Mobile eForms:
Forget about having to find, print, carry, and return paper forms. With Kofax Business Connect you can now extend back office business applications directly to your mobile device. New patient admittance, claims processing, or any other forms-based application is securely delivered to your remote workforce. Data can easily be validated with document management or other line of business applications directly within the form itself. As a result, processes are completed faster and more accurately, thereby increasing customer satisfaction.

Secure File Access:
Mobile workers can tap into the company network from wherever they are. Kofax Business Connect’s ‘My Files’ connects workers to their networked Home Directory, affording them secure access to their files and shared network folders. By leveraging Kofax AutoStore, mobile workers can exchange information securely with the enterprise’s content management systems.

Secure Mobile Print:
Initiate print jobs from wherever you are. Your information waits safely in the print queue until you securely release it at a networked printer or MFD. Kofax Business Connect keeps information secure until it is needed and eliminates the sprint to the device to pick up confidential information. Using the new Kofax Micro Card Reader, you can now authenticate directly at the MFD with your mobile device using secure NFC or Bluetooth Low Energy.

Customizable interface:
Customize the interface to include your company logo, backgrounds and fonts to rebrand Kofax Business Connect to proudly display your own brand identity.

eSignature:
Kofax Business Connect allows workers to quickly obtain the consent they need to perform tasks, validate information, and obtain approval. Kofax Business Connect allows for easy signing directly on the mobile device screen. Workers can collect and deliver the required approvals any time, any place, enabling work to move forward while they are on the go.

Geo-tagging:
Deliver a deeper understanding of the situation when you include geolocation information on-demand, or automatically, with your mobile documents and photographs.

Barcode Scanning:
By simply reading the barcode with your mobile device, populate e-form fields instantaneously with accurate data pulled right from the corporate database. Kofax Business Connect supports many widely used barcode types.
