Frequently Asked Questions
What is Remote Data Entry?
vcapture takes secure snippet images of the fields on your forms, and sends them out to an Internet workforce of real people – what we like to call Human Technology – reducing your workload, maintaining data confidentiality in a simple workflow, and giving you high quality 100% accurate results.
How does Remote Data Entry work?
vcapture enterprise integrates into your existing data capture platform. Each form image is prepared for remote data entry by extracting snippet images of each data field on the form image. These field snippet images are scrambled and sent out from the vcapture enterprise server via SSL to the vcapture remote data entry service. At the remote data entry service, the secure snippet images are presented in a web browser to Internet workers who perform the remote data entry.
The keyed data is then returned to the vcapture enterprise software, attached to the appropriate form, and exported back into your data capture platform.
What are the components of the vcapture software?
