For businesses that continue to use paper as an economical and flexible means to gather data, adoption of the ingenious digital pen and paper technology will provide new efficiencies allowing a number of business benefits to become quickly and easily apparent. For instance:

• Faster form and information processing - written information is electronically transmitted to a central database.
• Speedy access to information reaps rewards via better communication with remote data entry activities, faster invoicing and improved customer service.
• Responses to billing and service levels can be streamlined to improve business efficiencies.
• No manual data re-entry is required - information is already captured on paper thus enabling note-taking and form filling to become a once-only activity
• Retention of original paper-based input to meet audit and legal signature requirements.
• Optical Character Recognition can enable notes to be converted into editable text making it possible to populate back-office databases automatically.
• Minimal training required.
• The cost of equipping workers with digital pen and paper technology for forms processing is a fraction of the cost of deploying competitive technologies.
• With a modest investment and easy implementation companies can generate positive ROI within first year of adoption.
