Customer Review: Must read review
Summary: 5 Stars
This review will be biased but very honest. I sell this scanner on Amazon and use it for work. Store name Jo Louis Limited. There have been several reviews on Amazon that stated inaccurate and very misleading information about this product. The sealed Cardscan Executive 700c packages will come with a 7.0.3 version for XP/98/ME/2000/& Vista 32 bit. Cardscan 700c is compatible with Windows 7 and Vista 64 bit but only if you buy the version 8 software. Dymo charges $119 as of 12/12/10. Version 8 software is not included in the box with CardScan 700c. You must check your operating system before buying.

This product is flat out amazing. I can't tell you how much time it saves me every week. I have had no problems scanning any card. Old or new. Sometimes you have to edit but not very often. The software is excellent and easy to use. It's so easy to sync that information into ACT, EXCEL, Outlook and many more. The only drawback I can see in the 7.0.5 version is that you can't transfer the image. But you can go back to the CardScan database and view the scanned image. I'm a marketing and sales person and don't ever need the image, just the information on the card. If you need to use the scanned image then you must to upgrade to the 8.0.5 version. Feel free to ask me a question from my store. I'm happy to help. Tech support for cardscan is very helpful too 203.588.2500
Hope this helps someone. Take Care
Customer Review: Very Impressed
Summary: 4 Stars
This scanner is fast and the software is very intelligently designed. The user interface is intuitive and the documentation is excellent. Both surpassed my expectations. These folks should write more software, perhaps expanding into the contact management field. ACT! could use their help! The reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is that the OCR leaves a bit to be desired sometimes. Standard fonts and white backgrounds work great, but as soon as a picture is in the background, or the background is dark and text is light, the OCR starts having trouble. This is understandable, and I wish it were a bit better. Customer support seems to be pretty good, well beyond my expectations as well. I sent an email to them suggesting an additional feature and within a couple of hours they responded saying that I can easily do what I want to do right now, and here's how to do it. Feedback at all, and that fast, really amazed me. So I rate this as a strong buy, but expect to have to check the accuracy of the OCR conversion on fancy cards.Customer Review: CardScan does what it claims

I have the CardScan Executive 700, and have used it for about a year. It works great, but I always had a couple of minor issues with the CardScan software v7. Recently purchased the v8 software upgrade, and it work so much better. The scanner just does what it should, and the v8 software works very well.
The CardScan Executive 700 with the v8 software work very well. Most cards in a traditional layout will scan and be recognized. If the color contrast is poor, or the fonts are two flowery, you may have to type in or correct information, but you will have the information and the image of the card (you can scan front and back). The new v8 software adds the ability to replace cards, when you get a newer card from an existing contact. The lookup feature is very fast even with 1500+ contacts, and the synchronization with Outlook just works (once you get it setup).
Customer Review: Highly Pleased w. Scanner
Summary: 5 Stars
Simnply stated: it works - and well. I was amazed at how well it interpreted data on many different business cards and correctly assigned the info to the correct fields. In spite of graphics, totally different layouts & other potentially confusing items on the BCs, the Executive 700 made very few errors reading almost 200 cards collectd at a recent trade show. Those arrors were easily corrected durign editing. Finally, integration into Act! 2006 was flawless. It did what it was advertised to do, with few - easy to fix - read errors. When I encountered a small problem setting up the Act synchronization due to a driver issue, their Tech Support was quick, responsive and - most importantly - provided correct info. I highly reccomend this device.Customer Review: Excellent for the road warrior sales rep

I've seen and heard about the CardScan product line for years but never thought to buy one. Well, I started a new sales position a few weeks ago, making 20-30 calls each day. Those business cards pile up quickly but the CardScan fixes that real quick. Well over 95% of the cards I scan in get all the information transitioned to the program (you might have to do a little typing). This can allow you to do many other tasks such as address labels, FranklinQuest address books, letters, e-mails--you get the idea. I bought the more expensive unit that does color but the footprint on my desk is quite small and there's a travel case (free for me) that allows you to take it on the road. *****FIVE STARS *****
