Avoid this product [Posted on 2006-04-22]
The card reading ability of the device is worse than the rational customer might expect. The error rate I experienced was around 35%. I had scanned 30 cards, wasting time correcting data, and then the program crashed. In OSX. I hardly ever see a program crash. But here's the kicker: it didn't save the work at any point. In fact, there was no save funtion I could find easily, just export. I returned it right away, and ordered the CardScan Executive, which I run under Windows XP in Boot Camp. While it costs twice as much, its error rate is much more forgivable, at about 10%, with about 25% perfect scans/reads so far. Plus, the automatic saving and free online card data storage and synching are beyond my expectations. You get what you pay for.
Horrible. DO NOT BUY. [Posted on 2008-04-23]
This product does not work. Do not buy it. Everything about it is bad. Horrible user interface. Badly designed scanning unit. Unreliable OCR. Incomprehensible documentation. Software doesn't even boot on Leopard unless you email tech support and ask for a patch. Don't waste time on this. Instead, email Corex and ask them when their Cardscan product will be available for Mac.
