What do customers say about Ocrato
The free version allowed us to audit all of our File Shares and SharePoint servers to understand if we had files that needed converting. We did, and Ocrato converted them all perfectly!
Ocrato converted tens of thousands of old scanned documents that we stored in SharePoint. We can now search them for the first time! A real bonus is how much smaller they are now so much quicker to download.
We trialed several OCR solutions as we have a lot of documents needing OCR and make into PDF-A. Ocrato was the fastest, with the best results and was the cheapest solution we tried.
