Scanning Business Cards - Dymo - Direct to Maximizer CRM Live
Business Cards are still commonly exchanged in most business environments. Everyday CardScan technology allows me to scan 20 cards /minute, and is such that you can scan directly to Outlook' Addressbook, as well as directly to many common CRMs . However , the Outlook : Maximizer Address Book Entries Synchronization process produces a new record, even if the record existing in Maximizer.
It would be great if Maximizer/CardScan had a driver to get new contacts into Maximizer CRM Live.
IDEA: It would be great if Maximizer CRM Live had a CARDSCAN driver, so that I could simplify my process for entering Business Cards.

I am working since years with Maximizer and a module to import direct from Card Reader to Maximizer is missing, There are hundreds of cards from exhibitions etc.

Dario, take a look at Presto Bizcard 6 (http://us.newsoft.com.tw/products/product_page.php?P_Id=10). An older version of the software came with a scanner I bought. I upgraded computers and bought v. 6 to run on Win 8.
I found that the software does pretty good OCR on most biz cards (you verify before saving) and saves the text and card image into a local database. You can then export to an Excel file and import into Maximizer.

Really need this, we are losing tons of time entering all the business cards after tradeshows and road trips, we heard about another software that has these capabilities and might switch over if nothing similar can be done with maximizer!
