You’re in a competitive business, and as

your customers’ largest and smallest jobs.

How Do I License Alchemy Pro?
You purchase Alchemy Pro licenses and install
them at your office. You may also choose to purchase
add-ons to make your staff even more efficient.
IMR offers add-ons for scanning, COLD, Web server
and CAD. Once your staff processes customer data
and documents into repositories from their PCs,
they can distribute the repositories to the customer
via either CD/DVD or the Internet. It’s
that easy.
Automate CD Distribution
Alchemy CD distribution is unique in its ability
to automatically create discs for your customers
that include all the necessary software to locate
and view the data. If your customers have more
data than a disc can hold, you can offer then
automatic media spanning, which creates disc sets
that are easy to use. Your customers can either
work directly from the CD or can access the data
from a local or shared hard drive.
Internet Access
By installing Alchemy Web as an add-on at your
site, your staff can work with a familiar Microsoft
or Netscape browser, while retaining the benefits
of the Alchemy interface. Make Alchemy Web do
dual duty by using its log file to create bills
for your customers. Even if the documents and
data you’re working with are confidential,
there’s no need to worry because Alchemy
Web supports the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption
standard to insure secure data transmission over
the Internet.

Alchemy Pro includes the same rich feature set
as Alchemy Gold. See the Alchemy
data sheet for more information.
