(Even our $14,000+ corporate doc management package for Windows can't OCR worth a darn. So whenever one of these packages touts powerful "search" functionality relying on OCR? I automatically ignore it as largely worthless. I find that inevitably, I've got items to scan in that contain somewhat poor quality text, or a combination of printed text and handwriting, or simply a font that's really small - and OCR does a terrible job on them.
For starters, I've really never been that "sold" on OCR. I always hear good things about DEVONThink, but I recall installing a trial once and finding it was "overkill" for my needs. I've been doing a lot of work with document management both at home and at my day job.Īt home, I've been using my ScanSnap with Mariner Paperless 2.0 ( ) since it was a version 1.0 product, initially sold by another company.

It is a great program and in the end you will be glad that you went with the best.īTW: I would recommend the S1500M over the more portable version unless you have a significant reason to travel with it. I think it was SteveOC who convinced me to go with this setup. or sometimes just because it is interesting to see how well it does searching. The only time I search is when I forget where I have filed something. and I just drag each document into the appropriate folder hierarchy. It works best if I open a second instance side by side. I let everything scan into my inbox with automatic OCR enabled. It does a great job sorting by relevance. it has great search capabilities, and you can even keep all of your data in one big heap and just search for what you want. I primarily use folders, but it works equally well with tags.Īlso.

I use DevonThink Pro Office with a ScanSnap S1500M. Now that the portable model does OCR, this is a difficult call. It will be used 80% home and 20% work, so I'm on the fence which one to get. The big one is so fast and effortless, but the portable one is so tiny and inexpensive. Trouble is I'm having a difficult time deciding on the s1500m and new s1300.
I'm going to pull the trigger on one of the Scansnap models this week. taxes and other highly personal documents) on the cloud somewhere. I love Evernote for compiling documents, but I don't want to keep my personal scanned documents (esp. Is it too difficult? Just right? How does it work with the Scansnap. I'd love to hear about some user experiences using DTPO. Nevertheless, DevonThink Pro Office just seems like such a nice and easy to use program-especially now with the launch of version 2. This was the main criticism it received from the Mac Power Users on their podcast on going Paperless. I've been leaning towards DevonThink Pro Office for a while now, but I wonder if it's just too complicated of a program for my needs. It bothers me that I feel this way, but I hate the name of the DevonThink program and it irritates me when I see it. DevonThink is very powerful, but I don't care for the interface and it almost has too much for my needs. it just doesn't seem polished enough for me. I use the Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500m as a point of reference. No matter what solution you go with, I think you'll be pleased if your scanner is to your liking.

where it's convenient to get from my different machines, but I don't necessarily need to archive long term.īoth programs work great with the ScanSnap scanners. I used it for scanned articles, business expenses etc.

It's basically free unless you need more storage and syncs with every computer I install it on. Happy about that, but I do like the program anyways. According to the article it has nestled folders and some other improvements. I did see an interview (TUAW I think) from 2010 MacWorld, that said they were releasing a new version in March. It does not have a nestled folder system at this time. I think it's a great solution with one major flaw. I've used them all and there are two programs that I use for different reasons.įor all my legal documents (taxes, medical, receipts, banking etc) I use NeatWorks.
