Less Is More: ECM on Demand for Danish Farmers

Less time behind the desk means more time to tend to the fields and animals: Dansk Farmer IT achieved this goal for their customers with the help of ELOenterprise. The farming businesses use ELO based on the Software-as-a-Service model, i.e., several farmers share a server. Documents and data are centrally stored in an electronic archive and can be readily accessed. The farmers benefit from significant time savings when it comes to performing daily management tasks, leaving more time to devote to the actual farming business.

Overview

  • Country: Denmark
  • Industry: Farming
  • The Challenge: The goal is to manage files in a single, browser-based platform and bundle all documents in an electronic archive. In addition to the local staff, the data must also be accessible to third parties such as accountants.
  • Solution: All paper-based documents are scanned into ELO. Digitally received receipts and documents are directly archived in the electronic record. Barcodes are used to uniquely allocate documents. The ‘simple client’ precisely implements the farmers’ needs.
  • Benefits: Searches are fast and smart, allowing farmers to answer queries in a few moments. Printing out information on paper is no longer necessary, saving time and ink.
