Sunil Kumar Singh, a lead analyst from Technavio, specializing in research on computing devices sector, says, "The demand for document scanners is high especially in sectors such as the banking, telecom, and government, where a significant portion of the work is related to sharing information and documents.

Customers (employees in an organization or individuals) are expected to use such devices for sharing and reading documents.

Shift toward cloud computing Mobile cloud computing includes cloud computing, mobile computing, and wireless networks. It enables users to access internet-based data and applications through mobile computing devices such as smartphones and tablets.

Mobile cloud apps such as Google (News - Alert) Mail and Google Voice are increasingly used by both business organizations and individual customers. "Mobile cloud computing enables business customers to access company data and share files. Mobile devices play a crucial role during a corporate meeting arranged outside of the office, where the business professional do not have access to enterprise Wi-Fi. Mobile hotspots can be used to connect multiple devices, enabling them to share project-related information and emails," according to Sunil.

Handheld document scanners help avoid queuing for a photocopier and the scans can also have editable text, which saves time.

VuPoint, The Wolverine, TaoTronics Scanner SVP combo scanner, and Ectaco C-Pen are some of the popular handheld scanners. They are not expected to make much of an impact in the market due to the fact that there are document scanning apps available across all operating system of smartphones, and there is also high penetration of smartphones among individual consumers.
