CardScan functionality for Microsoft CRM

How do you solve the problem of missing or faulty contact information?

Your sales department is too busy to type new leads into your contact database, and the few who do, make mistakes or leave out vital details. Your marketing department can't send direct mail with incomplete or missing information. Vital contact information is lost, either through error, omission, or resistance to data entry.

Proprietary interpretive technology ensures accurate data

For over ten years, in thousands of offices, CardScan's Proprietary Interpretive Technology has proven its ability to "see" the context of printed information – sorting street address from email address, phone from fax, title from name – even on international cards.

Screen Shots:

You go to a meeting, and exchange business cards with the people you meet.
Back at your office, you send followup emails, and make a thank-you call to your main contact. Of course you enter this valuable new contact information in your company’s holiday mailing list, add them to your Outlook and iPaq, then follow up every 3 months. Don’t you?

In the real world, that doesn’t happen.
The fact is that people rarely re-type information from business cards into their computers.* Cards pile up in a drawer or desk surface, where they’re simply ignored. You might as well throw them away – along with the valuable information they hold.

CardScan moves cards from analog to digital.
CardScan is a desktop device that quickly and accurately "reads" cards into the correct fields of an electronic address book, instantly distinguishing name from title, street from email addresses, fax from phone numbers, even office from cell numbers. In seconds, CardScan reads more cards than you could type in hours. Then, over 50 software features help you use that contact information more efficiently. No wonder PC Magazine gave CardScan their rarely-earned five-star rating. And Corey Greenburg of NBC's Today show calls it a “must-have organizing miracle."

In the real world, CardScan means business productivity.
A Purchasing Agent quickly and efficiently keeps track of every vendor, by bid, project, month, and shipping location. An Executive Assistant easily administers a follow-up marketing program for her Sales VP boss, who returns from trade shows with hundreds of business cards. A Meeting Planner is able to instantly access the phone number of a client’s travel agent from her PDA, and change reservations for 15 people -- from her car. All using CardScan.

CardScan brings your business cards into the digital age.
CardScan solves an inherent problem of business cards: haphazard organization. But the real genius of CardScan is how it allows you to access information instantly, and use it productively, everywhere. Realize the potential in your most valuable resource: the contacts you've spent a career building.
