ChronoScan Capture

ChronoScan Capture is a scanning software tool that can help create digital copies of paper documents and organize them quickly and efficiently.

Quick and effortless installation

The installation procedure is simple and does not take long to complete. During our tests there was no attempt to push in additional third party software.
Looks are not impressive but the interface is clean and the intuitive layout coupled with the flexibility of the options are a nice compensation. Also, the developer makes available the download of sample files in order to test the application before using it with real documents.

Extensive functionality with OCR support

Besides scanning the documents, the application can also perform OCR (optical character recognition) jobs that enable digital editing of the files.
Among the advantages available in ChronoScan Capture is the possibility to work with multiple documents and organize the files in a user-defined sequence. Furthermore, it offers options for data entry, very useful in the case of invoice processing.

Capture documents and save them to the desired format

The application can capture data from scanners, multi-function printers, e-mails, fax machines as well as from web services or folders. It includes multi-language OCR capabilities and form processing tools.
Its flexibility enables the user to export data to an ODBC-compatible database or they can save the results as spreadsheets, plain text and even images or PDF files.
The developer touts its ability to send the information acquired and processed to ECM (enterprise content management), CRM (customer relationship management) or ERP (enterprise resource planning) software.

Complex scanning tool with data entry capabilities

The application does not target the average user but those that have to scan documents on a daily basis. It also includes a built-in OCR engine, which helps with processing the files after digitizing them. On the other hand, lack of a documentation file might make it a bit difficult to work with.
