Digital camera reviews of CardScan Executive v8 Card Scanner
Digital camera Review: It's 98% of perfect
Summary: 5 Stars
This gizmo works great. It gets a little confused on the OCR especially with hand written stuff. We scanned about 300 cards and had less than 20 that were any kind of problem. It's a real bargain if you deal with business cards, survey cards, inventory, etc.Digital camera Review: Much better than prior version / very precise.
Summary: 4 Stars
This thing really works.
I owned a prior version and the software was kind of clumpsy.
This new model is not. I'm a Business Man living in Sth. America and it detects Spanish card with no problem.
A bit pricey and not very portable, but if you like to keep your contact network in mint condition this is a must.
Digital camera Review: Much better than you might expect
Summary: 4 Stars
Given the vast range of business cards styles and terms (example "Cell" v. "mobile") the scanner does an excellent job of reading the card and interpreting the information. I scanned 1300 business cards in just under an hour. Less than 150 had minor scanning errors. In all, I had corrected and saved the digital file in about 2 hours. The only consistent difficulties the scanner has is (1) when the business name is only written within a graphic, and (2) when the card text is in light fancy script.
Digital camera Review: My cardscan paperweight
Summary: 1 Stars
I used the 800c with my old computer and it was a reasonable unit to use. The software is not able to load onto my new computer. When I insert the serial number from the unit for registration to load software on the new machine the Cardscan registration says that it is not a serial number. Cardscan tech support will call me "quickly" I was told by customer service. They never called. Approach with caution.Digital camera Review: One of the most useful office accessories I've ever used
Summary: 5 Stars
I've used a Cardscan scanner on and off for number of years, and recently acquired the newest one. The package is in two parts, the scanner and the software.
The scanner is light but slightly larger than the smallest scanners in the market. Unlike the older Cardscan models, however, it no longer require a power cord (which is a huge improvement in portability). It scans in colour and works perfectly well even with heavy continuous use. Looks nice the desk too.
The software is the real heart of the Cardscan package and in addition to being a great software for scanning and recognition, it does some really nice things; like integrating to an Outlook address book without having to export the records to Outlook. Included also is Cardscan At your Service (the online service for storing and managing your scans). That has proved really convenient; my assistant scans the cards, and I can access them almost instantly at home or on travel. The setup is pretty seamless and the recognition, as usual, very impressive.
