Many of you didn’t have time to take advantage of last quarter’s Avante upgrade promotion before it ended. If you didn’t have time to get an Avante upgrade into your budget cycle, don’t worry – there’s still a chance to take advantage of Avante’s expanded functionality and bring the benefits of workflow and business process management to your organization.

With Workflow, no matter how big or small your organization, you’ll simplify complex tasks, promote better decision making and keep information flowing around your organization. Just ask 2009 Run Smarter winner RMS, who used Workflow business process management to cut order processing time from 8-10 weeks down to just 72 hours. “Laserfiche is the heartbeat of our company,” says IS Coordinator Michael Eklund. “Thanks to Workflow, information now has a clear and consistent path around the factory floor. It never gets lost and it’s easy to track exactly what’s going on at any given time.”

Here's an example of how different departments can use Workflow to work together and simplify a common business process - requesting vacation time.

The Town of Brownsburg, IN, agrees. After ten years using Laserfiche, Brownsburg upgraded to an Avante system last year and hasn’t looked back. Although right now the Town’s Boards and Commissions is only using one workflow, the Committee has already produced ROI figures showing that single workflow will pay for their system expansion in just 2 ½ years – although staff expect a faster ROI once they develop additional workflows in more departments. What are some of those workflows? Automating permitting in the Planning and Building department, automating the HR onboarding process and moving court-bound information from the Police Department to the County Prosecutor’s Office, to name just three.

You won’t want to wait to upgrade to Avante, because this quarter, we’re featuring a special promotion for Avante upgrades and new purchases: buy 5 users, get 1 free! And to make this deal even sweeter, we’ve also eliminated the minimum software purchase for customers upgrading to Avante.

The promotion applies to base users as well as percentage add-ons for Web Access and Audit Trail. There is no limit on the number of free users you can get, and it applies to both Avante upgrades and new purchases. You must purchase LSAP coverage for free seats, and you must have current LSAP to upgrade. This promotion ends on March 31, 2010.
