Manufacturer description

Through the use of graphical cabinets and e-binders with EasyFlip technology, Rack2-Filer users will experience a familiar yet heightened level of accessibility and convenience to their scanned documents or digitally imported content. Loaded with a vast array of features, Rack2-Filer renders troublesome digital data management a relic of the past. Getting organized with Rack2-Filer is easy and enjoyable. With the push of a button, you can scan your documents directly onto the Work Area or inside an open e-binder. Rack2-Filer also accepts digital content created by other software such as spreadsheets, presentations, and word processing files. But for even greater flexibility, if an application can print, you can select the Rack2-Filer ImageWriter to quickly create e-binders containing images of your e-mails, web pages, on-line financial statements, technical manuals and much more.

Review:

User Rating: 5/10

Great idea but features set minimal and VERY slow

Pros: It's a beautiful idea and it does simple things fine. Fine for a 10-page collection of your monthly one-page bills.

Cons: A 50-page doc. slows it to a crawl on a core2duo w/ 2 GB and winXP. Simple inserts of documents into the binder or printing select pages are hard to figure out. Keeps each page in a separate file; it junks up the file system.

Review: I love the way it looks. It's not yet comparable to Paperport or Acrobat's document organizer, and that is not meant to be a compliment to Nuance or Adobe. E-Doc. management for the home user isn't there yet.

Fantastic concept but very difficult to figure out.

Pros: You can scan every sheet of paper that you have (bank statements, bills, recipe's, etc.) into binders so that you can get rid of all your paper, and just have digital files of everything. Great concept, IF it works.

Cons: The HELP section does not cover many issues. I have been trying for three hours to do something that should be very simple, like changing a TITLE on the Contents page, and still don't khow how to do it, even after calling Fujitsu three times.

Review: It is very difficult to figure out how to do some of the basics, like how to change a TITLE on the CONTENTS page. I have talked to three different people at Fujitsu, and after spending almost three hours with them and on my own trying to resolve this problem, I still don't know how to do it. The three personnel I spoke to had no idea how to change the title, yet they each took up almost thirty minutes of my time trying to figure out how to do it while talking to me. I finally insisted that they have a specialist call me back who actually knows how to use the program, and am still waitng for that call back. I will update my review after I get my problem resolved. At this point, I am very unhappy with this program and would definitely not recommend it to anyone, simply because I cannot get answers from Fujitsu on how to do the simplest of things in the program..
