The ecNet Client is automatically downloaded and installed as soon as a user connects to the ecNet Server, and runs entirely within Microsoft's Internet Explorer Microsoft's Web browser, which comes with Windows starting with Windows 98. Commonly called "IE," versions for Mac and Unix are also available. Internet Explorer is the most widely used Web browser on the market. It has also been the browser engine in AOL's Internet access software. - no manual software installation is required to use the program. ecNet Client uses the industry standard TWAIN (Technology Without An Interesting Name) A programming interface that lets a graphics application, such as an image editing program or desktop publishing program, activate a scanner, frame grabber or other image-capturing device. interface to capture documents from desktop scanners or other TWAIN compliant input devices. "Many organizations, small and large, have users spread across geographic areas.

"ecNet for eCapture may lead the new revolution of distributed desktop capture." ecNet supports three remote capture methods: scan only, scan and index documents, and scan and index batches (groups of documents). The capture methods are determined by an administrator who centrally configures ecNet scanning profiles using Internet Explorer. If indexing of documents is allowed, scanning profiles determine which document fields are available for indexing. If document images are not indexed remotely with ecNet, they can be indexed centrally with eCapture's production-level indexing component, ecIndex. ecNet can also be configured to allow for remote database queries. This allows remote users to query their company's corporate database via the Internet to retrieve additional index data. This feature can reduce manual indexing requirements and validate data entry. After scanning and indexing is complete, the images and associated index data is sent to the ecNet Server via the Internet/Intranet using Hyper A Greek work meaning "above" or "more than." It is used as a prefix to technical concepts and products to convey a more advanced or more automatic capability.

Once received, the ecNet Server temporarily stores the images and index data until they are electronically committed (archived) into the organization's document/content management system.
