User Testimonials
	ABBYY FineReader	PDFTables
Likelihood to Recommend	ABBYY FineReader is critical for any business that handles scanned documents or works with files that need conversion to Excel, PDF, Powerpoint or various other programs. It's ability to automatically process, read documents and suggest tables is impressive. It can take printed documents and convert all of the text to a editable format which is a huge time saver. In regards to tables it can automatically find and identify columns and separate them out for immediate use in Excel Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	PDFTables No answers on this topic
Pros	ABBYY OCR scanning Refining scanned text Sophisticated and flexible OCR settings/adjustments High-quality editing and document comparison tools Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	PDFTables No answers on this topic
Cons	ABBYY A versioning system of the work done or the editions that have been saved in the files, or a tracking of changes between one version and another would be fabulous An improvement that would be asked would be as previews or suggestions of the type of file that could be beneficial to use in an edition The redesign of the panels is that of the analyzed document, the edition and the changes in my opinion need a resizing to have a better view of the work Incentivized Moris Mendez Ing. de Sistemas Informaticos Read full review	PDFTables No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	ABBYY While Adobe Reader can identify documents and convert them to some other various formats, it cannot process the documents to identify tables for use in Excel. We only had success by letting Adobe read a file for any identifiable text but it wasn't always accurate. FineReaders ability to handle hundreds of pages at once felt leaps and bounds above Adobe Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	PDFTables No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	ABBYY ABBYY FineReader is an irreplaceable tool for preparing documents for document management systems and getting the most of them afterward Great time saver in various scenarios related to work with scans and photos of documents Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	PDFTables No answers on this topic
