adequate November 26, 2008
Joane Dovale-meit (Netherlands Antilles)
The CardScan works as advertised however the interface with OUTLOOK could be more seamless. The device is capable of scanning unusually formatted cards and still get 90% of the information correct.
The need to use the interface to synchronize i.e. export to OUTLOOK is somewhat cumbersome though the software allows batch processing.
 Good Enough October 30, 2008
C. Jane (Alabama)
I have found this product to be very easy to use and the results are sufficent for the cost of the item. The first one I purchased did not work. I called the tech support number and got through right away. I described the problem and they said to return it to where I had bought it. The return process with Amazon was extremely easy and they sent me a replacement before I could even get the faulty one back to them. The replacement worked great and I have scanned in a lot of cards that were just floating around my desk. All the cards I had been "planning" on entering by hand into Outlook. All done in less than an hour. I like this device.
 Card -- just what they promised October 21, 2008
R. Cindric (St. Marys, Pa. United States)
I had my doubts about character recognition software but the scanner did exceptionally well.
I had a big backlog of cards from the U.S. and 4 different countries to add into my outlook contacts files so I took a chance on the V8 card scanner.
It not only read and accurately entered information from a wide variety of type faces, it even got most of the address information for countries as diverse as Brazil, Korea, and China. I have to do very little correcting.
I am very pleased with this scanner, I wonder if they have a page scanner with the same OCR software?
They also delivered it faster than expected.
Great scanner for the price October 15, 2008
Medusa D (Washington, DC)
The CardScan V8 is a quick and reliable scanner for a reasonable price. I had 500 + business cards that needed to be uploaded into Outlook. This scanner made an easy job of it. I uploaded the entire stack and then approved them in batches throughout the week.
Easy interface with Outlook which identifies and resolves duplicates(!).
I liked the ability to scan the reverse of the card, particularly important with international business clients that may print the reverse of the card with local information in their working language.
I would highly recommend the CardScan V8.
No Vista 64 Support October 12, 2008
B. Upshaw (Tampa, FL)
I am sure it works quite well, I am sure it is great, just don't get it if you have a 64bit version of Vista because they do not support it and have no plans to create a driver for Vista64. I checked for compatability and right here it says, works with Vista.
Here is my note from tech support:
The 60ii is not supported on 64-bit systems. We're sorry for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused. There is no current plan to develop a 64-bit driver for the 60ii. A follow-up model, which will be called the 62, will have 64-bit support but the timeline for its release is indefinite. Also, it will simply be inserted in identical Personal edition boxes as the 60ii is phased out, so you will have no way to spot it when it hits the shelves.
