It's an understandable philosophy: Why fix a system that isn't broken? Here are just a few of the reasons to upgrade to Kofax Capture 10.1
- Versions under 9.0 are unsupported. If you are running
any version named "Ascent Capture" (i.e. V1.0 to V7.5) or are running Kofax
Capture 8.0, then your software is now several versions behind and beyond
support. (End of Support for Kofax Capture 8.0 Versions ended January 1, 2013)
This means that even a simple .net change introduced by Microsoft's updates could bring your
system to a halt, with no expectation of a fix. This represents a clear
and present risk to your business. Upgrade now!
- You are rolling out Windows 7 within your organization. Versions
below Kofax Capture 9.0 (KC9) do not work with with Windows 7, so an upgrade is essential.
Call on Balboa Peaks' expertise to assist you with plans and help you understand
the options available.
For example, many scanners are NOT compatible with Windows 7 x64, including all SCSI based scanners.
- You wish to move into automated data capture
for invoice data extraction or electronic mailroom functions. These are both
demanding applications and it is essential to start with the most capable image
capture software. An upgrade should be stage one.
- You need to implement virtualized Windows
Server 2008R2 or Windows 2012 systems in your data center. Both of
these operating systems do not operate with Kofax Capture 8 (KC8), so an
upgrade to at least KC9 is required or KC10 for Server 2012.
To Summarize For a Kofax Capture 8 System Administrator

- Receive support from Kofax
- Virtualize your server on Windows 2008R2 or 2012
- Upgrade scan and index stations to Windows 7/8
