Contacts Make The World Go Around

From the flashy business card to the quirky email address of that eccentric friend, today's world is connected with contact information. Whether it's to make a sale, forge a relationship, hire a skill, seek advice, build a network or just say hello, contact data is critical. In days past, a handy folio of addresses worked. But as we rely on email, smart phones and PDAs to navigate an increasingly mobile lifestyle, today's challenge has become more onerous.CardScan is the company solely devoted to the capture and management of contact data, offering solutions that help customers address the entire lifecycle of all contacts: business, family, and friends.

Business Cards and Beyond
CardScan's Unsurpassed Technology
CardScan solutions are designed expressly to capture and enhance the value of contact data. At first glance, it's tempting to assume that the core of CardScan's technology portfolio lies in its line of powerful, portable, and stylish scanning hardware. But beyond the USB scanner, the heart of CardScan's advantages in the world of contact management lies in its sophisticated software that lets users convert all contact information - business cards, e-mail databases, and other electronic files - into a unified digital contact database.
CardScan's proprietary interpretive technology - continually enhanced over the past 12 years - incorporates thousands of rules for interpreting business card fields so that it understands all of the nuances of properly reading all types of business cards. For instance, CardScan software knows scores of ways that people list telephone numbers on a business card, such as "phone," "tel:," "telephone," "T:." or "P."

As a result, CardScan software eliminates the errors associated with the manual data-entry process and enables users to drag-and-drop from electronic files, easily "de-duplicate" lists, categorize contacts, print labels, and synchronize to mobile devices.

CardScan's software philosophy drives the company to create software that's intelligently designed. Features are useful, not extraneous. Functions perform the way user's expect them to. In short, users find it easy to get started and like using the software.

Simple Design, Powerful Results
Create A Single Source for Contact Data
Using proprietary interpretive technology, CardScan quickly scans and accurately reads business cards, eliminating typing and greatly increasing the accuracy and completeness of capturing contact data. With drag-and-drop simplicity and powerful import, export, and synchronization, CardScan's comprehensive tools aggregate contact data from other sources such as e-mail, Web sites, and other programs such as Microsoft Outlook, ACT!, Lotus Notes, GoldMine, and popular PDA platforms.

Included Contact Management Services
CardScan products (Executive, Personal and Team) include an easy to use, secure online backup service for contact data. With a password, users can also retrieve contact data from any web browser. This gives users access to their contact data from virtually anywhere, anytime. CardScan's updating services can automatically generate periodic requests to contacts for updates. Changes and additions from these contacts can be automatically added to the user's database, keeping the user's contact data always accurate.

Get It in Sync
CardScan software features synchronization tools that make it easy to keep all devices in sync. From smart phones to PDAs and laptops, all contact is easily kept updated and identical.
