document management system?

Hi -

We would like to scan old paper records related to student information
(applications, reports, transcripts, alumni/ae activities...) and business
services (invoices, payments,...) to create a well-organized,
easily-searchable system of electronic information. We are hoping the
system will work equally well on Macintosh OS and Windows, and that it
will be hosted outside our school.

Does any of you have first-hand knowledge of a commercial system that
automates scanning and also provides a relatively simple interface for
searching and retrieving documents after they've been scanned?

(Just FYI, we do not wish to develop a custom database.)

Thanks in advance,
Terry
