o Software
Perceptive Software’s capture, content, search and process management software products and solutions, enable users to capture,
manage, and collaborate on important documents, information, and business processes, protect data integrity throughout its lifecycle
and access precise content in the context of the users’ everyday business processes. These components are developed and maintained
by Perceptive Software.
In 2014, Perceptive Software acquired two new software companies to enhance the software portfolio. ReadSoft is a leading provider
of document process automation worldwide. The combination of the ReadSoft and Perceptive Software product portfolios will
enhance the accounts payable automation solution with tighter integration to ERP systems, including Oracle and SAP. In October of
2014, Perceptive Software strengthened its position in the healthcare space with the acquisition of GNAX Health, a medical image
sharing provider via the cloud. The combination of Perceptive Software VNA technology with GNAX Health will enable doctors at
the point of care to easily share medical images across organizations for viewing and collaborating with other clinicians, in addition to
storing those images. In January of 2015, the Company acquired Claron, a leading provider of medical image viewing, distribution,
sharing and collaboration software technology. With the addition of Claron, Perceptive Software expands its offering to healthcare
providers by enabling referring physicians and clinicians to access, view and collaborate on patient information and medical images
that reside outside the EMR systems, while concurrently image-enabling the EMR and providing easy Web-based access via desktop
and mobile devices.
Perceptive Software has continued to enhance its position in the healthcare industry by strengthening its VNA technology which will
enable doctors at the point of care to easily share medical images across organizations for viewing and collaborating with other
clinicians, in addition to storing those images.
Perceptive Software also continued to expand its content and process platform with the release of Perceptive Content 7.0. Perceptive
Content 7.0 provides a zero-footprint web and mobile platform to improve user access to the system from anywhere in the world. In
addition, Perceptive Content 7.0 features enhancements for mobile capture, department administration, records management, and rich
media management.
In April of 2014, Perceptive Software announced the development of a new Evolution platform enabling all technologies in the
portfolio to seamlessly interact with one another. This common platform furthers the value of the software product portfolio and
allows for powerful combinations of software to solve key business process inefficiencies in shorter timeframes. Perceptive Search,
Capture, VNA and BPM also had incremental product releases in 2014.
o Solutions
Perceptive Software offers industry specific solutions across target industries — healthcare, government, retail, manufacturing, higher
education and financial services — as well as select back office functions — accounting, human resources, and contracts. These
solutions are comprised of select products, best practice templates, and industry specific deployment methodologies that account for
the unique differences deploying across industries. These solutions are documented and present various levels of automation based on
the needs of the specific customer according to the cost, schedule, and scope of their respective projects.
In 2014, a number of these solutions were enhanced with emphasis on the Healthcare clinical market segment specifically related to
helping manage the EMR systems and the corresponding patient chart review processes. Integrations with leading EMR providers
were also enhanced in 2014. In addition, with the acquisitions of Acuo in 2012, PACSGEAR in 2013, GNAX Health in 2014 and
Claron in 2015, Perceptive Software continues to strengthen and enhance its VNA and healthcare imaging solutions to healthcare
customers. The merger of these technologies will also give customers a single, enterprise-wide access and workflow platform for
managing patient clinical content via any EMR system.
Perceptive Software strengthened its leadership position in Higher Education with improvements to the Intelligent Capture for
Transcripts solution. The integrated solution utilizes the intelligent data capture engine to capture student information and reduce the
manual processing times of transcripts. Improvements in handwriting extraction technology enhance the value of this solution and
create additional possibilities for use across Higher Education institutions.
Perceptive Software released multiple new solutions for the Back Office. A mobile approver app strengthens the value of Perceptive
Software’s workflow for accounts payable automation, while the Intelligent Capture for Remittances solution expands our Back
Office reach with a best practices package for accounts receivable.
In addition, Perceptive Software launched integrated connectors to major enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) and customer
relationship management (“CRM”) providers including Salesforce and Colleague while creating seamless integration with the suite of
Google apps.
