(+) Possibly the Best (?) Document Scanner for Home and Office Use
eognLife without paper is great!
A few days ago, an Amazon driver delivered my new scanner. I must say that I am pleased with it. If it isn't the absolute best document scanner for home and office use, it certainly must qualify as one of the best. Indeed, it is undoubtedly the best document scanner that I have ever used. Admittedly, I have only used a dozen or so document scanners at home and at work in the past few years, but this scanner outshines all the others. It cost more than I had planned to spend; but now that I have used it for a while, I am very happy with the purchase.
Best of all, I don’t even need a computer to scan and the new scanner will save all sorts of documents!
Scan to Cloud
Rather than purchasing more filing cabinets to store my various pieces of paper, receipts, and other documents that need to be saved, I now digitize everything and store all these documents in the cloud or in a tiny flash drive. Then my computers automatically make multiple backup copies and store them in several different locations, both at home and in the cloud. I really like the assurance that I can quickly and easily search for any document and retrieve it wherever I am from any smartphone or tablet or laptop computer. And I do mean ANY smartphone or computer — Windows, Macintosh, Chromebook, Linux, iPad, iPhone, Android, whether it’s my own device or something borrowed from a friend or a computer at a public library. All have easy access to my thousands of documents that have been digitized over the years. All I need is some sort of computing device, an internet connection, and my user name and passwords.
My new scanner has multiple options, including the ability to DIRECTLY store the digitized documents in the cloud: Dropbox, Google Drive, Evernote, and several other cloud-based file storage services. It will also store the digitized documents into a flashdrive. I don’t even need a computer!
