Today’s workplace can closely resemble the lyrics from Johnny Cash’s hit song, “I’ve Been Everywhere.” Whether you are logging in from the beach or the mountains, or simply commuting via hallway to living room, the modern “office” has most definitely morphed from the cube farms and water cooler hangouts we’ve known for so long. No matter where you happen to be, a lack of traditional equipment such as a scanner and printer shouldn’t stop you from conducting business and making sure you send your documents in a secure manner.
This is where the new DataMotion app comes in, with a smooth, user-friendly process and our zero-trust design, ensuring that the documents you send are fully secure on their journey from point A to point B.
The DataMotion app renders the availability of office equipment meaningless, allowing you to easily create single or multipage PDF documents with a click of the camera. The powerful (yet simple) editing tools allow you to make any edits you need, fill in information, and sign. Once you are done, send your documents quickly and securely, remaining fully compliant as your encrypted sensitive information travels to its intended destination.
Here is a quick rundown of the features and benefits we think you’ll find darn handy:
- Security Users may quickly and easily send secure, fully-encrypted documents and files.
- Compliance Every exchange in the DataMotion app is logged and tracked for verifiable compliance, keeping you well within industry and governmental requirements and regulations.
- Easy Creation Quickly create and convert documents to PDF form.
- Rapid Scanning Users may quickly scan single and multipage paper documents.
- Editing Utilize easy-to-use image and PDF editing tools, with automatic cropping of documents captured by your camera.
- Storage The DataMotion app provides up to 100 MB Cloud storage for free accounts; shares your paid account storage limits.
- Large File Transfer Send up to 20 MB per transaction.
- Retention We offer 14 days for free accounts, with default retention for your paid account. The app also offers a history tab for viewing & tracking your securely sent documents.
- Productivity The ease of use and rapid delivery will save you and your staff time, allowing users to quickly move on to the next item on the to-do list.
That’s the gist of it—create, edit, sign and securely send quickly from anywhere. But we know you have might still have questions. We have answers.
