My understanding is that Atalasoft neither owns or developed most of the code and still licenses it from a third party.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7572277.post-87533250653256979072011-06-14T05:49:07.810-04:002011-06-14T05:49:07.810-04:00That is interesting since ImageControls has not be...That is interesting since ImageControls has not been updated in at least 5 years. There is no direct .NET support and "VRS customers who are leveraging ImageControls" still don't have any API that is specific to VRS (like changing VRS settings, selecting VRS profiles, or adjusting options in the VRS Admin Utility).<br /><br />I can understand, though, why this hasn't been a priority for Kofax. If they create an API for VRS a competitor could add advance support for VRS before Kofax Capture is updated. This almost happened when QC-Later was introduced.<br /><br />I honestly hope the Atalsoft acquisition benefits Kofax. Their products are very popular.Briannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7572277.post-70864550217418031232011-06-13T15:07:25.473-04:002011-06-13T15:07:25.473-04:00Brian:

It is sad since ImageControls had the potential to integrate tightly with VRS but no one above the VRS Engineering team could see that vision or wanted to pursue it.<br /><br />This is interesting for Capture since it uses ImageControls as its scanning API. They will need to do a lot of enhancements in the Atalasoft API in order to support features like QC-Later in Capture.Briannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7572277.post-40464785973846433332011-06-06T10:46:49.162-04:002011-06-06T10:46:49.162-04:00That an interesting thought.
