Why use OmniPage?

  • Save time by automatically recreating documents without retyping them
  • Scan and send documents to your Amazon Kindle
  • Always find your documents by turning paper documents into searchable PDF electronic archives
  • Share documents broadly and quickly via email, Web, SharePoint or FTP
  • Create PDF files in batch
  • Use your connected network multi-function printer as a high speed scanner
  • Automate the collection and conversion of forms and data

What problems does OmniPage solve?

The continued use of paper slows organizations down and frequently leads to "knowledge re-creation." This wasted time, where workers have to re-create information from existing paper documents or search for misplaced documents, is a drain on both productivity and profits:
  • Editing or updating information requires the time consuming task of retyping the paper document--filling out forms and then collecting the data can be the most time consuming component
  • Filing information and retrieving it requires time spent searching through paper files, manila folders and file cabinets
  • Sharing information is limited to inefficient and costly processes such as postal mail, courier or fax machines--keeping information confidential is often a deterrent to sharing information digitally
  • Critical documents are not backed up electronically for effective disaster recovery.
  • Currently available OCR software included with a scanner, All-in-One or MFP device does not produce the quality required
  • Re-formatting or re-editing of converted documents may be as time consuming as re-typing especially for documents with images, columns and tables

It all comes down to a single question for paper or electronic documents--"How do I get the document into the format I want without having to do extensive re-typing or re-editing?"

OmniPage eliminates paper and digital inefficiency by improving productivity, enhancing responsiveness and reducing storage and material costs. Organizations save significant time and money by leveraging the superior OCR and document formatting accuracy of OmniPage to instantly convert documents into the format of their choice. Retyping is eliminated, tasks are automated, information is easily accessed and productivity soars.

5 out of 5 stars Best document handling program I've ever used   June 10, 2009
aputerlady (Myrtle Beach, SC United States)
6 out of 7 found this review helpful

I've used OmniPage for years and this is the best yet. Definitely worth the upgrade! I've not found a task it can't handle. I can take photos of documents and this software will OCR it or PDF it or anything else I ask. It is great for genealogists in a hurry as well as anyone doing research. Don't think it is just for big business. I can create PDF's from OmniPage from multiple documents. I can take pieces of multiple documents, too. It is easy to use right out of the box but it's worth working through the documentation so you don't miss some of the really powerful things it can do.


1 out of 5 stars Installation Sucks   November 21, 2009
Rdi Inc.
3 out of 4 found this review helpful

The installation for this upgrade REALLY SUCKS.

If you are interested in this product, you should first try to contact their technical support by either telephone or email. That will show you that technical support is non-existent unless you send them money. I would not expect a response from them even after they received your money.

1. I loaded CD and a message said "An old version of this product is already installed. Do you want to continue?" I chose "Yes" thinking it would install if I chose yes.

2. The next message said that another Omnipage product was installed and that it could not continue and that I should remove the old product.

3. It gave no indication of what the old product was. I had 4 Omnipage products installed: Omnipage 15, Omnipage 3.0 PDF Write (or something close to that name), Omnipage 3.0 PDF Create and Omnipage SE.

4. I started randomly deleting my old Scansoft products since the Omnipage 17 installation disk wasn't going to give me any hints as to which products were a problem and which could remain.

5. I deleted Omnipage 15, Omnipage PDF Write and Omnipage PDF create but still couldn't get Omnipage 17 installed.

6. I couldn't delete Omnipage SE. I just got a "Fatal Error During Installation" error message.

7. I spent about 2 hours trying to send an email to Omnipage asking for help. It was unbelievably convoluted. I had to get a PIN number, get verification through email that I received a PIN Number etc.

8. The support site indicated 90 days of free support, but that's just a joke. They wanted my credit card number and to charge it $9.85 to get their stupid program installed.

9. I tried to move all the Omnipage files out of my Program Files folder, but that didn't help.

10. In desperation I went into the Registry and renamed the Omnipage stuff. Any upgrade program that makes the user edit the Registry is obviously very bad.

11. Updating the Registry actually seemed to work.

12. Then the program (of course!) said that it couldn't find any qualifying product that would allow the Upgrade to install and it would have to stop.

13. I found the Omnipage 15.0 disk and stuck it in to see if it could use that as a qualifying product.

14. Of course that started the whole installation process of Omnipage 15.0.
I finally got it installed and did a test scan. It had just as many scanning errors as Version 15.0

If a company can't even write a comprehensible installation program, I guess it stands to reason that the rest of the program won't be any good.

I think that Nuance has a United States address, but I'm guessing it's just a bogus empty office address. I think Nuance must be some off-shore scam that purchased whatever was left of the Omnipage name and is just trying to bilk people into sending them money for a supposed "upgrade".
