Cardiris improves the everyday operation of your office by getting rid of all
business cards. Enter any office and you’ll find the desk and drawers of the
employees crowded with business cards of all types and places. Business cards
suffer more than other documents from the known disadvantages of the paper
world: they get lost easily, aren’t available to your colleagues, can’t be searched
or sorted etc.
Cardiris, the “
electronic Rolodex
”

, puts a final end to all this. You begin by
scanning the business cards, thus putting images in a database. Use this manage-
ment tool to file your business cards and no more stacks of business cards will be
lying around in your office!
So, all business cards can be thrown away or returned to the owner as soon as
they have been archived. This means that you never lose any information con-
tained on a card, not even the company’s colorful logo or slogan, the contact’s
photograph or still a second telephone number or e-mail address which you don’t
usually encode in your “traditional” contact manager or database.
When you are dealing with “exotic” business cards - in, say, Vietnamese or
Arabic - which you simply cannot enter in a database, the advantage is all the
more prominent: as you first
