Objectives of the survey will be to identify the following:

• Top three challenges of teller and branch image capture
• Desired enhancements for RDC and mobile deposit
• Adoption plans and innovations which support self service devices
• Desired automation levels in check processing vs. actual experiences
• Potential adoption of new technologies, including cloud deployment
• Value-add recognition capabilities for non traditional payment documents such as remotely created checks
