I have the Fujitsu ScanSnap iX500 for Home/Office use which has been perfect and has paid for it's self many times over, but it came to a point I had to go out on the road, and with the work I do I needed the ability to scan documents.So following my experience with the Fujitsu ScanSnap iX500, I got Fujitsu ScanSnap S1100i and following going on the road with it, I made the right choice.The first thing about it is it's small enough to go in a briefcase. Setting it up was straight forward and there was no problem in running it from a usb port.As there is no document feeder and its simplex only, there is a lot more manual work in scanning documents, but the way it was designed it wasn't a problem and the quality of the scans didn't suffer.For anyone who needs a portable scanner, I highly recommend it

I've had this tiny scanner for a couple of weeks now and have been thoroughly impressed!Like many people I decided it'd be nice to clear several shelves of space by scanning in years of old receipts, bank statements, bills, and so on. I started doing the job with the scanner on my Canon Pixma printer but it was taking ages. Not only that but the software with that scanner was rather poor and would only output each scan as an individual file.The ScanSnap in comparison is a joy. Infinitely faster (about 10-15 seconds per A4 page) with no need for a preview. I have the software set up to scan directly to a PDF file with all the pages in the one file. The scan quality is not quite as good as the pixma but then it was a "photo" scanner and this is aimed directly as a document scanner.Bundled software also allows the capture of business cards and these are automatically OCR'd and stored into a card manager application. Took about 10 mins to get mine all in and almost all info recognised correctly.The unit is entirely USB powered so if you're after a portable scanner then this would be ideal.The S1100i has taken everything I've thrown at it in it's stride even correcting for my mistakes such as scanning the page upside down. In fact you can even scan pages larger than a4 by folding and scanning both parts one after the other and it'll join the image back up for you.If you're after something to quickly scan in all your paperwork then this is perfect.

Does exactly what I expected allowing contents of physical filing cabinet to be drastically reduced. Software very convenient to use. Hardware unobtrusive and works well. Only had it for a few weeks so cannot comment sensibly on reliability. Obviously cannot replace a flatbed scanner but so much more convenient to use for the vast majority of the time. Thoroughly recommended if your aim is to get rid of paperwork that you will probably never need to use again but just might!

4.5 stars. The Scansnap S1100i is a great portable feed scanner. Great for loose page documents. So won't handle books or passports, etc. But fast and clear scans. Software comes on CD but a pamphlet directs you to a website for downloads if you don't have a CD player. Big download (900+ MB of separate programs), but there are lots of options to scan to, such as the Organizer (File Explorer- like program), CardMinder (business cards) or Receipt (expenses). All are very good. Works with my Windows 10.1 (64-bit) with no problems. Scans as either PDF or JPG.Comes with Abbyy so everything can be OCRed. Note it does not support TWAIN or WIA, so cannot scan directly from within a program - everything has to go through the Scansnap software. But you can then send the scan out to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, a folder, GoogleDrive/ DropBox/ OneDrive, mobile app, Salesforce Chatter, or a program of your choice (e.g. I have PaintShop Pro setup).The software looks okay (Office 2010- like) and works really well. You need to spend the time going through each program and finding the folders' setting if you don't want to save to the default drive on C: (on Windows anyway). I set up a folder on D: and was pleased to note that the folder structures you setup in the Scansnap software are replicated under your set Windows folder, and in there are the PDFs or JPGs. So if Scansnap were ever to cease in its existence, your scanned PDFs and JPGs are still separately safe within your Windows folder.

A very small scanner, almost 'cute'. Software easy to load and update. Runs off USB. So far pulls paper through easily and love the little paper guide on the back which pushed the paper up (as opposed to just out the rear) saving even more desk space. Software easy to use. Only scanned to pdf at time of writing but scans cleanly and I have no doubt scanning to OCR or other applications will be just as clean.

This is exactly what I needed. A compact little scanner for desk top use and for travelling with. Not used it much yet but so far I am very impressed - the speed of scanning is so much better than our flatbed scanner :)

Does the job perfectly. I love that I can carry it in my hand-bag as I need to take it with me to work. Easy setup

I'm delighted with this little scanner, tiny, great image quality, and no messy mains leads. The feed is good and it doesn't damage the originals.Scanning technology has really improved these last few years, but it's the compact size that really counts - the ScanSnap takes up hardly any space.
