SharePoint Mobile Form Solution for Field Data Collection

Capturx is an easy and flexible mobile form solution that enables field teams to instantly capture and share data collected on paper, tablets, and PCs using common applications such as Microsoft Excel, SharePoint, and PDF readers. Even non-technical teams can quickly automate data collection on forms using familiar Office experiences, such as Excel for forms design and SharePoint for data management.

For paper-based forms, Capturx automates through digital pens, so mobile teams can speed up workflows without the cost, delays, and risks from scanning, transcribing, or losing paper documents. 

Capturx for SharePoint is a Web-accessible solution which integrates tablet data with the scanned handwriting and converted text from mobile teams collecting form data on paper with digital pens. Capturx immediately integrates the tablet and pen data back into SharePoint and can be easily deployed on existing SharePoint servers for complete integration into other backend systems.

Capturx for SharePoint automates inspection paperwork
Inspection Teams eliminate data-entry time and costs, complete inspection reports faster, and reduce risks from compliance gaps and poor operational visibility.

  • Teams can use existing inspection forms designed in Excel or simply layout new ones using standard Excel formats such as check boxes, word lists, dates, times, currencies, and many others.
  • Forms are printed from SharePoint on plain paper or are available on tablets and PCs.

As inspections are completed, all the data is instantly recorded by a digital pen, tablet, or PC. With digital pens, teams can track the actual date, time, and author of each entry – and even the location from where it was sent – to validate data and meet compliance requirements.

  • The handwriting for each form can be viewed in SharePoint or automatically placed into PDF files.
  • Capturx uses advanced character recognition to make paper-based handwriting available as text.
  • Data collected on paper, tablets, and PCs, is aggregated and available for automated workflows, notifications, analysis, and use in other applications.
