Today, approximately 80% of all the documents used by business are paper-based. Yet, they can be a highly inefficient, costly business medium. According to Gartner Group, documents claim up to 60% of office worker time and account for up to 45% of labor costs. Moreover, document mismanagement claims 12-15% of corporate revenue.
