Using the Fujitsu ScanSnap N1800 to Scan Documents Directly to SalesForce.com



The Fujitsu ScanSnap N1800 is a very capable, compact, and cloud-connected network scanner.  In some ways it is more like an MFP than a desktop scanner.  Primarily because it does not require a PC to function.  It connects directly to your network through an Ethernet connection.  The N1800 has an intuitive touchscreen complete with on-screen keyboard, and is efficient, secure and intelligent, thereby minimizing operator involvement before, during and after the scanning process.

The slides embedded above demonstrate using the Fujitsu ScanSnap N1800 to scan directly to SalesForce.com and Chatter.  This represents a very powerful combination because users of SalesForce typically want simplicity and don't want to worry about complex, or expensive integrations.  The N1800 is great way to "image-enable" SalesForce to handle some of your paper-based processes.
