Save your money

 

Hmmmmmm. Can't think of any.

Very disappointing & frustrating. I even read the reviews that had an average rating of 4. Must have been submitted by the manufacturer. I had to edit every card and often to ridiculous levels. Every entry needs to be checked because anything can be...

Not Satisfied

 

I could never get it to actually sync and called the company 2-times with no call back on what I may have been doing wrong. Card Scan by Dymo is so much simpler to use and works from the first time.Please do also note the these guys gave me great...

Theoretically works with Win7

 

If you're going to be running these with XP systems, go for it. The price is certainly right, and depending on what kind of software you're running on you may be just fine with these for a couple of years (until XP support ends). I've not tried these...

We've had several of these units working well for years on Windows XP machines running browser-based medical software, scanning via an ActiveX control that just used it as a TWAIN scanner

While a Windows 7 compatible update to the software is available and Microsoft says that the scanner will be recognized by Windows 7 without any additional software needed, it's recognizing it as an A6 flatbed scanner and ONLY their software is...

Does the job albeit with glitches.

 

Was a big help to me in converting from business cards to Excel database. However, I encountered many duplicates due to first name full name recognition.

Great Companion

 

My friend recommended this unit to me and it is doing exactly what it is supposed to do: I scanned more than 100 business cards with no problems and little recognition errors. Most of the errors were due destroyed cards or exaggerated logos with...

Great scanner for the money!

 

I've used other scanners similar to this, and they are all imperfect. But this one is easy to use and edit the cards as I go. And it interfaces with Outlook very well.

No good

 

Well built product, however if you are used to a cardscan product, extreme disappointment will follow. The software is crap. Takes too much time to get things in the right field. Recognition of characters awful.Worked with it a month and hate it.
