Pros

“Its unparalleled real-time collaboration and automatic cloud syncing take the stress out of version control and data loss. While it isn't the perfect tool for highly complex desktop publishing or managing massive, graphic-heavy manuscripts without a bit of lag, it absolutely excels at everyday word processing.”
ER

Erica R.

Assitant PM

“All of the platforms within Google Drive (Forms, Docs, Sheets, etc) are our go-to so we can keep everything within the same format and stored in a central place.”
KG

Krista G.

VP

“It has many features that assist with formating and drafting text and it stores theese documents on the cloud which you can then download to the device you're using.”

Pros

“The features I appreciate most are the use of the camera on my iPad to scan material, and the straightening function - I use it to scan music to my iPad and my aging eyes just can’t deal with crooked, wavey scanned music, like in the old days before I discovered iScanner.”
RE

“It works that I can use it from my phone that I can scan docs and trim them into a digital pdf when I need”
KP

Karen P.

Psychotherapist

“It is a a simple, convenient mobile scanner app that lets you quickly scan documents and send them via email or other platforms.”
DS

Diane S.

Owner

Cons

“The one thing is in the formatting of bigger documents, sometimes tables and images do not format when you export them to other formats that can irritate them while making project reports. If the Internet connection is poor, it takes some time to sync sometimes, causing delays.”
NH

Nguyen H.

Deputy Service Manager

“The other major headache is advanced formatting. If you are trying to design a complex layout, handle precise image placement, or build a massive report with intricate page numbering and deep tables of contents, Docs starts to feel incredibly clunky.”

“On one hand, the real time collaboration and cloud syncing are absolute game changers working on the same file with someone else live and never having to stress about losing your progress is amazing. But on the other hand, it can get super frustrating when a massive document starts lagging, or when you're stuck without internet and can't easily access your stuff.”
NS

NAVEED S.

ACCOUNTANT

Cons

“File separations and sometime is very difficult to split the file in pdf format and it take round and round to split them”
SN

Steven N.

CEO

I have an issue where the program is set to open the “scan document” menu upon start but it will go and show a recent document

“Sometimes hard to scan i paper is not standard 8x11. If the paper is torn, it can’t imagine the edges.”
