Small desktop scanner

This device was recommended by the hospital because it is used and can be adjusted if necessary. It was very easy to connect, just needed drivers from the internet and it was ready to use.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • I have no complaints about it, everything is fine

Working but fragile - office electronics

Working but looking at the construction, especially the paper guides on the side, I doubt it will last long. Other more durable scanners can wear out better. The software is difficult to use. Although not recommended, it will work with manual USB switches when connected to two computers.

Pros
  • Great build
Cons
  • Doubtful

I really like single pass duplex

Works very well. I have noticed that long receipts get stuck in the scanning process or are not picked up at all. And I'm missing some features in different scanners, like reading information so that information can be inserted into specific files. I just need to get used to putting papers upside down and backwards to be able to scan properly. But it scans well and accurately. I particularly like that it scans both sides at the same time in one pass. And the parts can be folded when not in use…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Sharpness

Thumbs up! Fast, fast, FAST

I've waited about a month to write a review. I love this scanner! It's fast, scans both sides of the paper and supports TWAIN. This is perfect for my needs. The footprint is small so it fits nicely next to my monitor. The scanning software is easy to use and offers multiple customization options. You can also create your own settings. It took several calls to Ambir to set up, but after that the scanner worked flawlessly. You should be aware that the scanner will turn off quickly to save power…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

Not compatible with OSX, bad support, bad sales experience

It is recommended to buy this scanner from Neat.com who no longer makes scanners but I still use their software and my Neat scanner is broken. Ambir is listed as a certified hardware partner on the Neat website. This printer, which is explicitly listed, does not say anything about macOS incompatibility either in this Amazon listing or on Neat's website. So it arrived today, I hooked everything up and went to Ambir's website to get the driver and software and SURPRISE! These folks have never…

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Out of fashion
