Vertonghen, a worldwide provider of Enterprise Document Management (EDM) and Enterprise Content Management (ESM) solutions and services that simplify the process of capturing mission-critical content for access from business applications and processes, has announced that it has acquired PearlDoc.

A company with expertise in the development and integration of standalone and networked document scanning, as well as index systems and document workflow automation, Vertonghen will benefit from the portfolio maintained by the global provider of document capture and management solutions.

PearlDoc actively develops and implements specific document management solutions for thousands of companies worldwide. They help reduce the facility costs of medium and large sized companies, as well as organizations associated with the collection of records. PearlDoc also helps to facilitate profit creation by allowing users to exploit the information contained in the many documents validated by an organization.

PearlDoc officials believe document and record management is at the core of most major companies and organizations. Since facilities spend a large amount of money to manage the space taken by massive creations of paper and signed-off documents, PearlDoc works to reduce those costs and finds solutions for effective management, such as reducing the physical space and limiting the risk of a fire. PearlDoc prepares the information for easy access, using web and search technology.

With the help of PearlDoc’s software, Vertonghen’s Enterprise Document Management (EDM) is expected to provide comprehensive capabilities to manage dynamic, transactional and historical content. This is said to help Vertonghen’s customers, which include high-volume banking and financial institutions, insurance companies, and copyright and other large administration companies. Vertonghen also focuses locally on supporting the operations of legal, accounting and secretary offices.
