Attempting to load the software for this reader resulted in an error and would not load. I atmepted on another computer with the same error message. (Both were laptops.) I then atempted to load onto a desktop PC. Here it loaded fine. After several attempts to solve this problem with tech support. We both gave up and decided this will not work on my computer, so I returned it. Full refund came promptly with out any hassel.

This card scanner is okay for home use where time is not an issue. Some cards do not scan very well and info must be input manually. This would not be desirable in a business situation where time and speed is important - defeats the purpose of scanning.
Very easy to set up and use - just doesn't function as well as expected.
