Document Management Software Question

I also use the ScanSnap S300 - lovely little scanner that works well with Evernote, but you’re right in saying that the software is inferior. Recently I phoned Fujitsu support to get an upgrade to the latest version of ScanSnap Organizer (from v3 to v4). I was told that the software was “not available for purchase” and that I had to buy a new scanner to receive the updated software. Can you believe that? There is no upgrade path allowed for any of the software programs included with the scanner.

Debenu’s Benubird PDF Pro was a good start to a PDF management solution, but it was never finished properly (still quite buggy). The developers released it as a free tool and haven’t updated it since. Seems that they have lost interest.
