Cambridge Computer sells and integrates systems for automating data entry from a variety of types of paper and electronic forms. Paper is scanned or faxed into the computer, the image is interpreted by the software, and the data is automatically entered into the appropriate fields in a database. Automated data entry solutions can recognize machine- or computer-printed text (OCR), checkmarks and bubbles (OMR), handwriting (ICR), and barcodes. We can configure the system to interpret handwritten or printed forms, forms faxed through a fax server, or forms submitted electronically through Web forms.

Automated data entry solutions are invaluable for healthcare organizations, pharmaceutical companies running clinical trials, law firms, insurance companies, remote sales offices, and any other industry that processes a large number of forms every day. Automated data entry solutions can replace traditional manual "heads-down" approaches such as double-key entry. By implementing such a solution you can achieve faster, more efficient entry while eliminating or reassigning data entry positions.

Our consultants will recommend a combination of hardware and software to allow you to automate the data collection process from paper, faxed and electronic forms, dramatically reducing data-entry time and cost.
