This is my first scanner that isn't a flat bed, and I am really impressed. It attaches to my workstation wirelessly, and it allow for the set up of multiple scanning profiles, specifying the type of document, the quality, and the location to store the captured image to (even to a cloud service like dropbox). The scanner is very compact / fits nicely on my desk. The scanning speed is really fast, and it scans both the front and back of the documents. It also scans business cards and receipts, and captures the detailed information in both the scan and in text format for metadata that is searchable. I really love this scanner.

This is my 3rd Fujitsu ScanSnap I have purchased for home/office use. I have still have the original S1500 hooked up to an older iMac. I had been using the iX500 the fees since it came out. The iX500 needs to be connected to a computer so I never really utilized the WiFi feature. Let’s face it you can find awesome scanning mobile apps for phones and tablets. So if I need to scan something on the fly I can. I scan everything automatically into Dropbox so whatever I scan is always accessible from any of my devices any time and anywhere. With the iX1500 I can leave it set up near the counter where incoming mail usually stacks up. Now I can open the mail or empty my receipts etc. and scan them and then throw them into the recycling bin! My iX500 is connected to computer on my desk in my office so I would let things pile up and then eventually scan them. Now I can scan everything as it comes in and I just love not having to use a computer. I have tried Epson and brother scanners and returned them all because the ScanSnap software is the easiest and most efficient. At work we have various models of Fujitsu ScanSnaps and we are still using several of the older 1500s as well as the higher end models. We can’t use anything WiFi/Bluetooth for security reasons (Military). But the software and drivers for the ScanSnaps are extremely user friendly and reliable.

Helped me get rid of all my paper clutter at home. Easy to set up and use, highly recommend for beginners. Watched Alejandra Costello “Best scanner to go paperless” video on YouTube was hesitant at first due to price, but after seeing piles of paper ready to go to the trash I have to recommend this scanner!
