Clean U.I., but too focused on generating formatted PDFs **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Mike C. | Author of Music Books, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 08, 2019 **What do you like best about Readiris?** Overall, the UI is very clean and well-designed. When importing a zone template, Readiris did a nice job of alerting me to the fact that some of the text had spilled outside the zones. Take note, Omnipage! On the OCR accuracy, I've used OmniPage, ABBYY and Readiris, and I'm sure they're all in the upper-upper 99% range, so the differences seem negligible. **What do you dislike about Readiris?** No mention of keyboard shortcuts (or as they're sometimes called, keyboard accelerators) in the help file and limited choices come up when you hit the alt key. There should definitely be a way to quickly toggle between Select Zone and Text selection on the Zone tab with keyboard shortcuts. Not enough options for a plain text file - I wanted to create a plain text file. All of my source PDFs were made of six zones representing an individual line of text, but there was no way to keep the formatting of those six zones as six individual lines. These individual lines were forced into a single paragraph, even with "Merge lines into paragraphs" unchecked. The only way around this was to create a .docx file with "Maintain word and paragraph formatting" selected and then after creating the .docx file, saving that file as a .txt. No option to save to clipboard instead of a file. That's a pretty standard feature in most OCR software, I don't know how Readiris overlooked adding that option. I needed to apply a zone template to multiple pages. I easily selected those multiple pages with a CTRL+click over on the left-hand pages view, but when I opened the zone template, the template was only applied to the last page I had clicked on. Did the developers seriously never think you might want the same zone template to be applied to more than one page? Come on! I'm working with the Corporate version, but if your only goal is to "Convert documents into editable text", that's actually not available in the $49 Readiris PDF 17 version, you have to shell out $99 for Readiris Pro or $199 for Readiris Corporate. I imagine with the $49 version, because the PDF is editable, you could simply select all the text and paste it into a text editor or word processor, but it seems pretty strange you have to spend $99 for something as basic as converting your documents into editable text. Again, very short shrift is being given to people who are all about getting the text content of documents and who are not as focused on creating a PDF that's got all the formatting included. **What problems is Readiris solving and how is that benefiting you?** We're taking lots of printed testing and trivia material and bringing it into a quiz script platform. - [View Readiris pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/readiris/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-06-28+02%3A13%3A46+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=c8588127-77e3-4c41-beea-6186e8908ced&secure%5Btoken%5D=ff52be865d205add6f0a014f0c9cd31df856c55458777e1b147711baa282013d&format=llm_user) ## Readiris Features **Operating System** - PC Operating System - Mac Operating System - Linux Operating System **Document Processing** - File Type - Data Extraction - Mobile Capability - Intelligent Processing - Image Enhancement **Platform Additional Functionality** - Integration - File Conversion - Windows and Mac **Agentic AI - OCR** - Autonomous Task Execution ## Top Readiris Alternatives - [Laserfiche](https://www.g2.com/products/laserfiche/reviews) - 4.7/5.0 (1,206 reviews) - [Nitro PDF](https://www.g2.com/products/nitro-pdf/reviews) - 4.4/5.0 (376 reviews) - [SS&C Blue Prism Intelligent Automation Platform](https://www.g2.com/products/ss-c-blue-prism-intelligent-automation-platform/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (347 reviews)
