The document imaging industry encompasses a large range of hardware, software and services vendors. The list of companies below includes most of the major vendors in each category.

Scanner vendors develop and market scanners, which differ from other scanning devices by virtue of being designed specifically for the single function of scanning.

Kodak Document Imaging

Fujitsu/Fujitsu Computer Products of America (FCPA)

Böwe Bell + Howell Scanners

Panasonic Communications Company of North America (PCCNA)

Avision

OPEX Corporation

MFP vendors develop and market multifunction peripherals (MFPs), also commonly referred to as digital copiers, that generally offer some combination of printing, copying, scanning and faxing. MFPs are increasingly being leveraged for their scanning capabilities due to increased functionality made possible by the availability of document imaging software that can be accessed at the MFP.

Document Imaging Software vendors develop and market software applications that allow users to capture documents, process the scanned documents using a variety of image processing or image recognition technologies, add taxonomy or metadata to the image, and distribute those documents via a computer network.

Innovative Systems and Solutions LTD

Image Processing software vendors develop and market software applications that allow technology to be applied to a document image after it has been scanned, improving the quality and usability of the image.

Image Recognition software vendors develop and market technology that is applied to a document image after it has been scanned to identify characters on the page and convert them to electronic format. Applying image recognition technology to a scanned is beneficial for search and retrieval of images and automatic processing or routing of an image based on identified text.

Enterprise Content Management (ECM) vendors develop and market software that acts as a business-wide repository for managing unstructured information -- any file not managed in a relational database. ECM is a superset of document imaging, and ECM software generally includes document capture, EDM, BPM, workflow, records management, collaboration and storage management capabilities.

Quadrant Software

Document & Image Management vendors develop and market software used to control electronic documents, but differs from EDM because the software is focused more on document images rather than electronically created documents like Word, Excel, and e-mail files. DIM, as it is known, typically includes document capture, indexing, viewing and annotation, workflow, and COLD technology.
