ExactScan looks nice and the developer put a lot of work into this application. I am surprised that they do not seem to be putting any effort into making it more stable. ExactScan stalls in the middle of scans and you are have to force quit and frequently have to restart the scanner. I have had so many problems that I went back to VueScan. Vuescan has been around forever and is constantly updated. Competition is good and I wanted ExactScan to work. I could easily overlook the price difference it ExactScan was reliable but not.

Constantly crashes on IMac Catalina and has to be restarted. Over 2 pages scanned and the program freezes and has to be restarted. Not worth 90 dollars. Not worth 20 dollars. Dont waste your money.

Fraudsters. They left the AppStore and the latest version on there does not work with Catalina. No response when I asked them to convert AppStore license to a direct license.

No way to disable update checks. Wouldn't it be nice to just offer choice to users and respect their preferred default?

Worked great for a year, now: "Unexpected scanner error. An unexpected error condition occurred." Totally unusable. Made sure to delete ScanSnap driver, but still only errors.

Used all mac and Fujitsu scanners, 1300i, s1500m, now ix1500. The later because mac is going all 64 bit SOON. Fujitsu in the meantime is dropping support for newer operating systems in the 64 bit world, i.e. ALL older fujitsu scanners sans ix1500 will be useless in a 64 bit world, plus fujitsu barely supports the older scanners. What to do,? the ix1500comes with scansnap software to use generally for all types of scanning. Nonetheless, I'm using the ix1500 with scansnap Home. I needs to be noted I also use Hazel, it reads, ocr'd docs then imposes rules on them making changes and putting them where they belong As time moves on I'm without software for a perfectly good s1500m and a new ix1500 that NOW comes in second place for ocring documents that hazel doesn't like to read for some reason, and they don't care. In comes Exactscan Pro. OCR three times faster, easy to run, operate, i.e. infallible AND it runs the on 64 bit and works with my old s1500m. Yes, the ix1500 was a waste of money, all I needed was Exactscan Pro to run my s1500m and I would be very happy. Yes, with price conversion (to Euro) it's a little over $100. But what a piece of engineering, simple, and like a Mac, Just Works. The ix1500 works the same as before, but the presets are in Exactscan Pro. This software has saved me so many hassles I would have paid more. When Mac Fujitsu Scanner users find out how well this software works with the ix1500 and works in the 64 bit world to reenergize the Fujitsu unsupported Fujitsu Mac scanners, they'll drop the Fujitsu software and buy the Exactscan Pro company.

Having bought this over MacAppStore with a used DR-2580C (€99) this is a marvellous bundle. I scan about 5000 pages a month, super fast super reliable, not needing windows in a virtual machine. Pages are straight, right contrast, pdfs are OCRed, no waiting time. 20 double pages a minute are not a problem. Special buttons on the scanner are supported so I can control the settings of the software directly on the scanner. Wished the online software would acknowledge the AppStore License like other manufacturers do, so when software is released on their website before the appstore version is updated, can be used immediately.

This is a fantastic scanning app. It does all the things that fujitsu scansnap software does. Auto rotate, descew. It OCRs way faster. But the big deal is it can use super fast mega scanners. I've been looking for something liek this for a long time.

This scanner driver is simply the best available for scanning office documents. This scanner driver is simply faster than even native Mac scanner drivers provided by the scanner manufacturers. For example, it is TWICE AS FAST AS THE NATIVE the Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500M's driver when scanning at 300 DPI in greyscale WITH OCR! Without OCR it is faster. The Brother ImageCenter ADS-2000 scanner does 7 pages per minute at 300 DPI. It is a dog of a scanner. But the ExactScan Pro squeezes 10 pages per minute at 300 DPI for this scanner. It allows you to run numerous previously incompatible PC-only scanners. For example, it allows you to use the Canon DR 2850c scanner at full speed of 300 DPI Grayscale at 20 single-sided pages per minute with OCR. . In fact, since the Canon DR-2850c is available for $90 on eBay, you can have huge savings on the hardware cost of scanners by simply using the ExactScan Pro driver. Why buy a new $500 scanner when a $90 will be nearly as fast? Or use the driver on a $500 used scanner (that formerly sold for $2000) that blows away what you can get new for $500. This scanner driver makes many used scanners fantastic performers. What I like is that the developer continues to improve compatibility with more and more scanners. For Office Documents (not art scans), this scanner driver easily pays for itself and is faster than any other existing scanner driver on the same hardware. it blows away VueScan, SilverFast, ABBY FineReader, and drivers from the manufacturers themselves. It is particularly a bargain when you buy it in the Apple Store since you can use it on all of your Macs. Very Highly recommended.

That's a bad marketing strategy. Give us a outdated buggy demo to try out or make us pay Mac App Store to find out our hardware is not totally supported. And when we demand a refund Apple stalls until we die from old age.

This application cannot handle mixed orientation pages as many documents are. Auto rotation failed 3 out of 4 pages in a single document. I was doing duplex documents on a Xerox Documate 152, which is listed as compatible. Xerox software does fine under Windows with Parallels.
