IRIScan Express 2 review

A portable scanner that's powered by your Mac

Simple setup ; Decent performance

Sluggish scan times ; Image quality a mixed bag ; Serial key issues

Our hopes were dashed on the rocks of invalid serial keys and the IRIScan’s inconsistent performance

Very helpful gadget

There wasnt really any major problems that I could point on for the IRIScan. Im still learning the product's ins and outs, but so far so good

This product is extremely portable. I am always on the go, so it has saved me a lot of time. I like the fact that it does not need an external power supply. The quality of images scanned was very good for such a portable device. The software that came...

The scanner is a bit slow in scanning pages, but I figured that was a compromise for being portable

Good product for the money.

This is a good scanner for receipts and flat paper. Documents that have been fold tend to hang up and blur the scan. The resolution can be adjusted but the default is very low.

Easy Setup

Poor Resolution
