Read full review Pros With Kofax PaperPort, documents can be merged, pages can be extracted from multiple documents and combined to make a new PDF document. It is an important feature as one needs to do it very often and more ubiquitous pdf readers like Adobe Acrobat Reader DC lacks functionalities like these. Kofax PaperPort scans the documents and using it's OCR, converts these scans to searchable PDF documents so that these documents can be searched based on the text content in them. Functionality to convert other formats to PDF and PDF to other formats. This is important as many times , we need to upload certain documents only in a specific format and conversion is required to and from PDF format.

Complex indexing that allows for advanced and fast searching. Easy to use interface that is not challenging for the average user. Read full review Cons It should have a back button, so if you go from one folder to the next, it would be simple to get back to the first folder. When you combine two PDFs, it should retain the title of the one that's on top. The send to bar should be easier to change. Read full review Not a truly scalable software package, best fit for single or smaller organizations up to 15 users. Does not force structure and is less document management and more document storage / organization. Pricing is not cheap but is relative to what you receive, online document storage and advanced access across devices. Read full review Likelihood to Renew PaperPort has a few quirks, but it is the only program of its kind that actually does what it claims to do. The power of it is so much more than they claim especially when it comes to trying to achieve a truly paperless office. With PDF editing built-in, it also saves considerable investment in other PDF editing programs.

Read full review Alternatives Considered I was ecstatic to see someone moving PaperPort away from Nuance (Those in my circle of friends refer to them as Nuisance). The lack of customer involvement by Nuance made finding answers to things that sometimes irritate a user to being downright frustrating. Maybe the purchase of Nuance by Microsoft will allow the company to focus more on the customer.
Read full review Well, it a good product at an affordable price, which makes it suitable for me to chose Sohodox.
Read full review Return on Investment Less amount of money is spent for filing purpose as less number of people and space are required for filing purpose now. Information retrieval has become way faster as documents can be searched based on labels or on the basis of their content. Lot of options to improve the quality of the scanned image. Read full review Very scalable, but only to a certain level (1-15 users or so max). Interface and usability are user-friendly, without sacrificing features and power. Advanced tagging and searching allows users to save documents and organize them "their way" without forcing specific workflows. Read full review ScreenShots
