### "Best Advance Capturing Tool You Will Find On The Market "

April 12, 2018

5.0

Advance Capturing

Pros

Great product with very advanced features. Awesome Pricing! Call ChronoScan or M-Files direct and get a Demo you will be happy you did.

Cons

Least liked the part of ChronoScan is that no one knows who they are "YET". Do you have Accounts Payables "AP/AR", Sales Orders, or any other use case you can think of regarding large ingestion of digital/physical documentation at your company?

### "Best and most flexible document scanning and data capture software"

June 14, 2017

4.0

All incoming paper/mail documents are scanned through chronoscan. It classifies all document, adds a PDF text layer and exports the documents to the DMS and ERP system.

Pros

Fast and flexible, you can capture all data from all types of documents. Multiple OCR engines Web based (Enterprise version) Scalable of multiple servers/instances Advanced line/table capture options Support

Cons

Only OCR, no ICR (yet?) VBScript functions only for advanced users Not realy a con but it's only OCR software, no workflow or archiving options (does havemany export options)

### "Support has been absolutely fantastic. Was assisted to get done exactly what I needed. "

April 10, 2018

5.0

hugely reduced time in filing documents. Saved a huge amount of money by not needing a filing person.

Pros

Support is incredible, software works much better than expected and did not need to do any major changes to my documents. Changed some fonts as the old font was really not OCR friendly. Using it daily to file all our signed delivery notes and this has made it incredibly easy for our staff to find them and email the document to clients for any queries.

Cons

I wish I understood more of the features of the software, and need to find time to learn more about it as I am certain it can simplify much of our capturing in the future.

### "ChronoScan has been specifically configured to extract clearly defined data for tax department."

June 19, 2017

4.0

Increased time efficiency

Pros

The program's ability to be virtually used in any application. The staff is available and can make the software work in any application; for example, the software now allows for fixed length output configurations because they listened to what I needed and pushed it out with the next update release. Thank you!

Cons

Visually, the program could be improved. Buttons are small and duplicate buttons are available causing overuse of space. Unless you have several of hours of using and testing the software in a specific application, it is somewhat difficult to understand at first.

### "Powerful tool and Top-Notch Staff to meet your business capture needs"

June 15, 2017

5.0

Pros

Robust, Easy to configure, Lightweight, and scalable. Chronoscan can be deployed for small to large organizations. Their expertise speaks for itself in the product set. Their focus will take them far.

Cons

The new enterprise UI is by far one of the cleanest UIs in the capture market. I would recommend that the support for International languages can be easily configured from UI standpoint.

July 27, 2021

5.0

The quality of the captured images is much higher than I anticipated.

Pros

It is very helpful that we can capture data from many different formats. They layout of the windows makes it easy to navigate and allows me to work quickly with the software.

Cons

Initial set up of the software to my device was a little challenging, but you do get used to it once you continually use it.

### "Easy to use. Incredible time saver for those who deal with large amounts of paper. "

March 23, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like how I can scan and organize my documents in minutes, as opposed to hours. I love how it's free for non-commercial, personal use. Allows me to be able to Scan/Index large sets of documents and to extract text from PDF Files and convert to indexed data.

Cons

For my purposes, this software works perfectly. I think for heavier users, there could be issues with renaming files, having the same name of files in the same page and font type transferring appropriately.
