    The Neat Company
    If you need a program to keep all of your receipts in one place and have the ability to report on them, then Neat is the program you want. Also, if you want to get rid of all the business cards you have laying around but keep the contact info, Neat is the program you need.

    Great devices if you need to hold small conferences. If there is a need to hold a conference for several dozen people, I would recommend using older models.

    I'm not sure how Shoeboxed can be used in a large organization, but for our small business, it is perfect. I'm the only one who deals with our finances and works with our accountant and for that Shoeboxed is simply my lifesaver and worth so much more for not just all the time it saves me but all the worries and headaches too.

    Cons
    The Neat Company
    • Wish it had the ability to edit business cards, i.e. lighten dark ones.
    • Wish you could scan 2 pages into one receipt - to include backup.

    • It is necessary to make a PoE interface on the video codec itself, for convenient connection of PoE tablet control (TC-8)
    • Simplify the first launch of the device in terms of network (external DHCP required)

    • I had some issues with the mobile app in the past - where it crashes or gets stuck uploading. I think they fixed most of that, however, I transitioned to simply mailing my documents off to them.

    The best support is not having to use support... and I have NOT had to use Neat support!

    • It saves me, I would say, at least 2-3 hours each week
    • We probably generate 'better' tax returns - more deductions and save on our accountant in the process, since they have everything perfectly prepped
