This review is from: Paperless [Old Version] (CD-ROM)

Paperless (formerly Receipt Wallet) is to the Mac what Visioneer/Nuance Paperport was to the PC. I use Paperless with a Fujitsu ScanSnap for Mac. The integration is perfect. Paperless detects the ScanSnap easily. You can Paperless as one of ScanSnap's file destination. Apparently you must buy this directly from the Mariner Software site.

Highlights of Paperless:
> OCR to automatically read your receipts.
> Plenty of categorization options for your documents. I have a separate database for work and home papers. You can categorize as much as you like (insurance, recipes, tax records, etc) and SmartViews and folders are easy to set up.
> Perfect integration with my ScanSnap.
> Good user's manual.

Lowlight:
> When you scan, I believe the scan defaults to the last database opened. It would be good if you could designate which database you want to scan to without having it up and open. Maybe you can and I'm missing something here?

This review is from: Paperless [Old Version] (CD-ROM)

I have been looking for a program that would allow me to scan articles/files I have saved over the years, so I am not storing so much paper.

I had been interested in another program, but would have had to upgrade my system software, and purchase a new scanner. I starting checking into NeatWorks Digital Filing System, but after reading the poor reviews on Amazon.com, I had decided against it. In one of the reviews it suggested Mariner Paperless as an alternative that was working for them. After watching the tutorials on Mariner's web site, and downloading the product and trying the demo, I was hooked! The program has everything I was looking for.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great pairing with ScanSnap 300M, March 2, 2010

This review is from: Paperless [Old Version] (CD-ROM)

I'm delighted with Paperless. I bought a ScanSnap 300M about a year ago and I was a little surprised at the lack of software included. I bought the only software I could find, "Neat Receipts". It worked pretty good at first, but with 300 documents it has nearly become unusable.

Before purchasing, I evaluated the free trial of Paperless. I imported my existing scans and used Smart Collections to sort things out by Category. I liked having a large view available to select several documents at once and assign a Category. It feels like Apple software, and that's a compliment.

After a couple trial scans, I decided it was well worth the purchase price.

Overall, it's great software that works as expected and I would recommend it to anyone looking for software to go with the ScanSnap 300M.
