Ratings and reviews

Seems to work ok - I gave up before it was done. I scanned 9 receipts, entered (itemized and color coded) 6 receipts by hand while waiting for it to process, did a bunch of other work (over an hour) and then entered (again, itemized and color coded) the 9 I'd scanned, by hand. In that time, it had one ready for review, and that one wasn't itemized - it just had the vendor and the total paid. If you're not in a hurry, and IF it itemizes, eventually, (or if you don't need that) it looks like it'd be good. For my purposes, it was not.

Other scanning apps crop/straighten the image and allow changing filters to black/white, document, grayscale etc. We have to use those and email into Dext because these features don't exist in Dext, but they really should.

14-day trial is completely useless! Don't bother downloading this if you actually want to test the app before buying. The "14-day free trial" is so locked down and feature-restricted that you can’t properly evaluate how it handles real workflows, multi-page docs, or full integrations. How are you supposed to know if a product is worth paying for when you can’t even explore all the basic functions during the test period? Waste of time. Look elsewhere.
