Scansoft Omnipage Pro Comparison Guide
There are several Scansoft Omnipage Pro solutions available to convert scanned images to
text, Word, HTML or searchable PDF. The differences between them can often
be obscure, leaving many to wonder why some Scansoft Omnipage Pro cost about $100 while
others cost $500.
The main features that differentiate Scansoft Omnipage Pro are:
  
- Character recognition accuracy
- Page layout reconstruction accuracy
- Multi-engine voting technology
- Support for languages
-
Support for searchable PDF output
- Speed
- User interface
We have tested the latest versions of
FineReader,
OmniPage,
ReadIRIS,
TextBridge and
SimpleOCR and have
determined that ABBYY
FineReader 9
is the best overall value for business users, while
ReadIRIS is the best
Scansoft Omnipage Pro for under $150. The key deciding factors were:
-
User interface design
-
Page layout reconstruction capabilities
-
Extensive language support
-
Stability of the engine when processing large documents
-
Helpful (and free!) technical support staff
Though other testing labs have ranked OmniPage's overall accuracy slightly
higher, we find the difference is pretty negligible. All modern Scansoft Omnipage Pro have very good accuracy, so we recommend going with the one that
has
particular special features like IRIS's
Arabic and Hebrew and
Asian
Language versions.
Because of the infinite combinations of document types, OCR engines and
settings, it may be possible that one engine may perform better with your
particular documents than another. For this reason,
ScanStore provides demo downloads for
all its Scansoft Omnipage Pro
with your ScanStore User
Account. Because of this variability and the subjectivity of user
interface preferences, we recommend using the demos to see which performs best
with your documents.

ABBYY FineReader
10 Professional - FineReader Professional is
a highly
accurate and easy to use Scansoft Omnipage Pro that includes host of features
including digital camera OCR, intelligent document layouts, image
enhancement, barcode recognition and command line integration.
FineReader 10 is our pick for Scansoft Omnipage Pro because its document layout
retention will save you much time in reformatting documents you convert
for editing.
ABBYY FineReader
10 Corporate - FineReader Corporate Edition offers unique
concurrent licensing that makes it possible for many users who need
occasional use of OCR to share a small
pool of active licenses. With accuracy comparable to OmniPage,
superior technical support services and
a user interface that many users find preferable, we think FineReader
Corporate is
the best choice of Scansoft Omnipage Pro for business.

IRIS
ReadIRIS Pro 12 - Affordable OCR solution for business
 and home users.
ReadIRIS Pro provides a extremely accurate OCR recognition rate at a low
cost, but still has some of the advanced features that higher priced
professional Scansoft Omnipage Pro includes.
IRIS ReadIRIS Corporate 12 - Adds support for files over 50
pages, business card recognition, as well as automatic processing of hot
folders.
 Nuance
OmniPage Pro 17 - OmniPage is widely considered the fastest,
most accurate and fully featured OCR application.
OmniPage 17 Professional has a unique new feature that lets you convert
any type of document to searchable PDF or Word.
OmniPage does not have a downloadable demo. Nuance also does not provide free technical
support after the first call. For these reasons we recommend the ABBYY and
IRIS products instead.
