Techneos Systems Integrates Entryware 6 with Remark Office OMR® Entryware users can now export data for use with Gravic®, Inc's Remark Office OMR (Optical Mark Recognition) software. This integration allows you to conduct multi-modal surveys using any combination of mobile computers, paper and the Internet. Remark's reporting and analysis capabilities complement the basic top-line reports that are available within Entryware, and provide a consistent system for managing data from multiple sources. Remark Office OMR is a leading Windows® based forms-processing software package for surveys and tests. The software recognizes optical marks (bubbles and checkboxes) and barcodes. With Remark Office OMR, you can design your own forms using any word processor, print them on your printer, scan and recognize data with your image scanner and then analyze the data or export the data to the application of your choice. Now you can export your Entryware surveys and results in Remark format, allowing greater flexibility and usability in both the Techneos and Remark products.
