    It works exceptionally well for digitizing paper and scanned documents for storage and simple retrieval mainly thanks to OCR technology, which greatly simplifies the process. If there is a need for protection and/or signing scanned documents than ABBYY FineReader has all the necessary features implemented. It may not be the best choice for individuals, where advanced functionalities are not really needed.

    Laserfiche

    • Some functions in Laserfiche Forms makes it hard for the average user to use such as formatting how you want a telephone number or horizontal fields.
    • CSS and Java Script make it harder for the average person to be able to make the forms the way they want. Laserfiche Answers helps but is time consuming.

    We plan on renewing Laserfiche for the coming year but also have been considering a scanning and document management solution that can be purchased from our new accounting system company, we are implementing the accounting system this year. It will be a couple years before we make a decision to stay with Laserfiche or change.

    Laserfiche is a very easy product to use on both a technical and end-user level. This makes it readily incorporated into an organization. It does require planning and experience to avoid pitfalls, but it is the rare product that our end users have adapted to so quickly. In a short few years, our organization has become heavily reliant on Laserfiche and has re-shaped the way we architect our systems and solutions.Laserfiche has excellent documentation and training for both technical and business users. And finally, they have a very capable professional services arm.

    I am very satisfied with Laserfiche. I have found that certain larger jobs may are slow. This may also be related to our infrastructure environment. We have been able to tune Laserfiche to increase performance on larger jobs.

    Performance, of course, is largely dependent on the underlying environment. Laserfiche does its part with multi-threading, taking advantage of multi-core servers on scanning, workflows, and bots. A SQL-Server back-end is suitable for small to medium-sized company, but may not scale to large, where Oracle would be the better choice. Workflows can be poorly written and perform recursive work slowing down the system. It's better to run batch type workflows at night when possible.

    I have never had to wait for help from Laserfiche. If I cannot find the answer online, I can easily send an email to a customer support representative. I have always been helped the same day and my questions have always been resolved. The Empower conference is always a great learning opportunity and the online resources and webinars are top-notch.

    Alternatives Considered

    ABBYY FineReader

    Although both have functionalities that they share, in ABBYY FineReader they are better implemented, they have a better performance, in addition to being a more intuitive and simple user that makes their learning curve relatively simple, it is as if the options I need are always available. the hand and not within complicated menus or overloaded interfaces

    Laserfiche

    Laserfiche offered me a free trial and I found it more cost-effective and suitable for my business. Although Trello has a lot more features, most of them are not required for our business. Also, we had a bad a really bad experience with the customer service of Trello. Laserfiche is way better and quick to respond to and resolve customer queries.

    Laserfiche

    • Most of our customers see an immediate ROI on time savings, and better information analysis and records search. Paper processes replaced by Laserfiche are no longer plagued with situations where a single person knows where large numbers of documents are for example.
