RemoteScan Enterprise

RDP Document Scanning and Image Acquisition from Desktop Scanners to All Network Environments

Dell RemoteScan is the most reliable document scanning software for VDI, Terminal Server and other virtualized RDP, ICA and LAN environments. RemoteScan provides hassle-free desktop scanner connectivity for thousands of companies in nearly 120 countries, with more than one billion documents scanned to date. Since 2003, RemoteScan has simply been the most stable, secure and seamless software solution for image acquisition in hosted environments.

RDP scanning enables you to initiate scans directly from your virtual desktop to any TWAIN or WIA compliant scanner without compromising network security or establishing shared folders or directories. Share a single scanner or imaging device with other users over a network (IP, LAN, WAN), similar to sharing printers. Access scanners connected directly to client workstations using any software running on vWorkspace, Terminal Server/Remote Desktop Session Host (TS/RDSH), VMware or Citrix® servers. RemoteScan Enterprise supports TWAIN and WIA compliant scanners and other image acquisition devices. 

Installation takes fewer than two minutes.

Features

  • Support for all scanners - Allows any number of desktop scanners to be shared on a network; in a vWorkspace / Terminal Services/Remote Desktop Session Host / Citrix / VMware environment, software on the server will detect individual desktop scanners at remote locations as if they are locally attached.
  • TWAIN and WIA support - Supports all TWAIN and WIA compliant desktop scanners and imaging devices, including high-end scanners, sheet feeder scanners, ‘all-in-one’ devices, card scanners, flatbed scanners, web cams, and digital cameras; it also scans to iPads from scanners attached to PCs or workstations running iRemoteScan.
  • Lossless compression - Uses highly efficient, lossless compression for transmitting data, and does not slow down network traffic appreciably
  • RDP and ICA support - Uses native RDP, Quest EOP and Citrix ICA/HDX protocols - no need to change firewall settings
  • Easy compliance with enterprise requirements - Includes the RemoteScan ShareCamera and RemoteScan Templates for auto-configuration of scanner resolutions and settings; it’s the right choice for enterprise environments with a mixture of desktop scanner makes and models.
  • Customizable look and feel - Allows you to lock down desktop scanner settings, even among many different brands and models of scanners;  you can use this to restrict a user’s scanning choices, as well as enforce the scanning area, DPI resolution and color settings for consistent results.
  • Universal software support - Works with any application that can import from any desktop scanner or camera using TWAIN image acquisition, including Adobe Acrobat, Laserfiche, Photoshop, Intuit QuickBooks and Microsoft Word, as well as custom applications; connect desktop scanners via parallel, USB, Firewire or SCSI connections.
  • Multiple languages - Offers versions in English, Spanish, German, Italian, French, and Dutch.
  • Easy to use - Provides an intuitive user interface can be installed in under five minutes.
