What is something you wish you knew how to do with Laserfiche?

There are a lot of things that you and your organization can do with Laserfiche, but what do you wish you knew how to do with the Laserfiche suite of products that you don't currently know how?

I wish I knew the best way to migrate a repository, all the workflows that go with that repository, and all of the forms associated with that repository, and the database that is associated with that repository from one server to another server.

(P.S. we're hosting an external agency's LF and they have just invested in their own system so we need to give them their data).

If you happen to be attending Empower 2025, I have a Wednesday afternoon session called The Great Laserfiche 12 Upgrade and Server Migration Show where we'll do a live walkthrough of upgrading and migrating a whole Laserfiche system from one set of servers to another. It covers all the pieces you mentioned. 

If you won't make it out this Empower, I do hope to hold the same session as an open webinar later in the year.

Three things in Laserfiche Cloud:

1. OCR records using workflow to clean up legacy records

2. Workflow to convert documents into TIFF format (eg .docx, JPG)

3. The ability to do backups like we could on prem

Could you elaborate on #1? Might the Run Capture Profile Workflow activity do what you need?

Hi Samuel, we migrated to the cloud and a lot of our older records were not inputted correctly - our policy is to import all files as TIFF.  As a result we have many legacy files that are in the wrong format and/or are not OCRed.  Would Run Capture Profile Workflow activity help with this?

Ah, unfortunately not. It doesn't handle format conversion and the OCR text from the Capture Profile session isn't stored as the document text outside of the session/process.

Capture Profiles would do the job if the type of "cleanup" you needed was to do high-quality OCR to extract specific values from the documents to then assign as metadata fields so they could be automatically filed/processed.

The problem is that I don't know what I don't know...  laugh
