PaperScan adopts the strategy of overhauling your scanner's product to a more powerful answer for benefit from the gadget. All things considered, while most scanners transport with programming, the producers again and again center around building the equipment, consigning the product to a greater amount of a bit of hindsight.

"Easy scan"

4/5

What do you like best about PaperScan?

I like that this is a very easy product to use, and that most of the work is done on my PC. I am able to produce professional documents with this product, including encryption if needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am using the Free Edition, and it has limits to how many batches I can scan, and only a single license is provided. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PaperScan:

Try the free edition first, and if you need more batches scanned, you may want to try the paid edition, the pricing is not going to break the bank. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PaperScan solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am solving the paper issue. With scanning I do not need to print as much, and am saving trees! It is easier to just shoot an email once the work is scanned, rather than run it to someone's desk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PaperScan?

The log in to scan is the most annoying part for me. I feel like it is definitely a good idea to have a scanner to get who is using the scanner, but I do not like how specific the log in takes and the log off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes to get to one thing like scanning multiple pages and sending it through a mass email can get a little confusing to get too. There are too many click through rates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I work in a large office so having a system like this helps not get documents get lost in our huge org. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
