Cons

Frankly there is nothing I really miss in the software . Almost all the features are there in the package.Only thing is it takes time to load otherwise its amazing

Pros

I have been using MIcroosft Office Lens for a long time and I am very satisfied. It is excellent to scan papers and documents in a fast way. It is really helpful and easy to use software. You can crop and edit your documents on the go and upload it on your cloud. I use it on a daily basis for my job and in personal life.

Cons

None. I like everything about Microsoft Office Lens.

Pros

I love that i could scan stuff very easily by just taking a picture it automatically crops it for me, and it's ready to go. Easy as 1 - 2 - 3.

Cons

Theirs nothing bad to say about this application.

Pros

This is one of those apps that's simple and gets a ton of use. Whether you are using this as an employee or just for personal use, it makes scanning documents and other pieces of writing so much easier.

Cons

There are no cons! I have no more use for a traditional scanner anymore because of how well this app worked to replace it.

Pros

Very easy to use and innovative product that enables users to quickly scan documents or boards and then transforms these documents to legitimate scanned documents in various formats like pdf.

Cons

Sometimes on my android phone it lags and fails to save scanned documents. Also on minor occasions the app failed to recognise the document.

Pros

As with a lot of Microsoft products they work well but still need to be innovative if they want to succeed

Cons

it still doesnt have all the features i would need to make it a solid alternative but its a strong application

Pros

Makes scanning files and saving as PDFs relatively easy, and you can email them right away or save in different file formats.

Cons

It can be difficult sometimes to properly focus your camera lens so that all document text is legible.

Pros

I use this software on my phone, so whenever I need to send my client a softfile of our document, I just need to take a picture of it, and then convert it into PDF and send it. It is that easy. It also provides good quality of pictures and excellent cropping functionality.

Cons

It is really annoying whenever I need to send a document, I have to save it first instead of send it. So, I am a busy person who needs everything works quickly, it must be nice if Microsoft would update it so after scanning the document, it can be sent immediately instead of saving it first.

Pros

The amount of time saved not having to record a whole whiteboard of information is amazing. It not only takes a picture of the content but sharpens up the image and put it in a nice file format to easily be able to share out.

Cons

It can be hard to get the picture you want sometimes but for the most part this software is a breeze to use.

Pros

Somewhat easy to use and magable, very effective.

Cons

The high price tag monthly is kinda not what you expect from a high end software.

Pros

I like that Office Lens can easily scan any printed material and makes it searchable within OneNote. I also like the easy integration with other tools such as OneNote and syncing across devices.

Cons

I think the application can be improved by making it more stable as sometimes it can hang while processing my scanned notes.

Pros

Excellent quality images and ability of scanned images to be exported to virtually any application. Easy to access and good for snapping workflow documentation.

Cons

None that I can think of or noticed from the usage so far

Pros

Makes note taking and retrieval much easier. I can sync my notes on OneDrive and read them anywhere without having to keep my notebook with me.

Cons

While the scanning functions are excellent, it often struggles to recognize my handing through OCR.

Pros

Microsoft is one of the world's leading software's, so it integrates with most other products nicely.

Cons

The customer service for set-up was awful, took weeks to get everything properly set up and the customer service reps don't seem to know what they are talking about.

Pros

I like that it is literally like a scanner in your pocket. It can take photos of documents and whiteboards and turn them into perfect copies in Word and pdf files. You can easily store them in OneDrive. I also like that it automatically crops the paper or whiteboard to save you time.

Cons

I really didn’t dislike anything about them software.

Pros

Lens is a very useful program that converts everything into PDF documents for you. I use the free version, it is very practical.
The software automatically recognizes the documents, writings, pictures and fixes the edges so that the document angle in the picture looks perfect.

Cons

I generally like it, but I can say that sometimes it takes time to recognize some pictures.

Pros

-It is very easy to use
-Easy to share
-Its results' quality is almost same as printer

Cons

-It takes too much space on mobile
-Its predicting engine is not as good as it should be to replace printer

Pros

Save everything in the cloud
Full integration with the Microsoft Office suite
Margin recognition

Cons

Does not OCR in handwritten text
Colors may be distorted

Pros

It has special scanning features such as capturing information from a whiteboard or business card or passport photo. It adjust amazingly well to capture various platforms.

Cons

It does not gives you an option to save output to a non-microsoft app on my phone although I can email whatever I scan.

Pros

The documents saved look great and are easy to read.

Cons

Sometimes have trouble lining things up.

Pros

I liked using thApp, easy to use and when I scan small documents like a business card, even if I take it in any direction, I don't need to configure it, besides having several storage options. The App also differentiates a document with an object and the visualization is very clean and good.

Cons

Practical and useful App, but for example, it could improve when you scan a business card, the image could come out the same size, I thought the card came out with the big image and also the shutter sound is a little loud, it could have the option to decrease the volume.

Pros

This software/app integrates easily with your mobile office and various applications such as One Note, PowerPoint, PDF etc. It was easy to install and use. On the whiteboard option it really clears up your pictures for a presentation. It easily saves your Photo or Document to multiple platforms. Great for taking Photo's of business cards and receipts and keeping them in one folder.

Cons

It takes a while to save to PowerPoint and it fails at converting all documents to text in the Mobile Word Platform. Needs some work converting documents to Word text.

Pros

It has the ability to save and scan any document you would want to save! Saves so much time because it's so convenient.

Cons

There is nothing I dislike about this software.

Pros

This software is extremely versatile. Not only can I use it to scan and edit documents but also receipts as well

Cons

There really are no downsides to this software, It works , period!

Pros

It is cheap and easy and as simple as taking a picture, which is the primary function. It is automates a lot of functions

Cons

There are times when the program doesn't save or scan, especially when used in correspondence with Outlook.
