When it comes to running a business, I know how important it is to have some software handy for all of my business activities. There are some things I can do and other stuff that I can either delegate or automate. I can’t do two hundred things at once. The good news is that I have a small team that I work with daily, each with their specialties and abilities.
However, there are some things that I know I can automate if I use the right kind of software. That’s when I decided to see what was available online. What software could I depend on to handle the tasks that I want done? One of my new hires recommended AABBY. His old company used it and they were quite happy with the software that they have used for some of their tasks and processes. I decided to give them a try and I was quite pleased with what I could be able to get done with it.

Vantage
One of the software that I used was Vantage. Don’t get me wrong, I’m no techie by any stretch of the imagination. But I was able to get a good understanding of how to use it thanks to the tutorials. This software is like a do it all kind of tool for all of your documents.
Especially when you want to keep them for financial sheets and sales data. In fact, it keeps all my data well organized and readily available for relevant documents. Needless to say, it’s a lot better than having to punch things in manually. Why spend hours on the computer doing that when you can get software that can completely change the game.
This is the best software for those who want to keep tabs on not just their finances, but also on inventory counts (for example). I have a friend of mine who does supply chain management for his company and he has to do regular reports on what’s being shipped out and what was being returned due to defects or other issues. This software was suggested to him by me and he was happy to say that it made the entire report creation process a lot easier for him.
FlexiCapture
Do you have multiple documents that you need to process? Not a problem. FlexiCapture is the software for you. This can take all of your documents from programs like Microsoft Word and add them to a single workflow. Convert your documents and file them away so you can put them to good use if and when you need them.
FlexiCapture also allows you to extract the data from those processed documents so it saves you time rather than having to punch in every single number into a spreadsheet. Yes, there will be plenty of those I’ll be dealing with. I’d much rather spend time looking at the numbers rather than punch them in manually. Plus, I make fewer mistakes that way.
Timeline
Timeline is a good program to have when you want to put all the pieces of the data puzzle together. All you need to do is load all of your data together and Timeline will put it all together into one nice and well-organized document or screen display.
Organize all of your business financial information from income, expenses, sales, insurance claims made, and so on. It all depends on your industry and the metrics that you need to measure in order to make the report look seamless and easy to understand and read.
FineReader
Once you have all the data and relevant numbers put together, you can place them in a PDF that adds the finishing touch. FineReader is the perfect software for you to get it done since it all ties in with the rest of the ABBYY software.
This is the only digital document processor that you need so everything will be organized, filed, and presented to those who need those reports under tight deadlines.

Cons
Final Verdict
ABBYY is probably one of the best intelligence processing software on the market. Without it, I’d be wasting a whole lot of time processing data all the time. Plus, I hate crunching numbers. So, I can rely on a software that will do all the heavy lifting for me so my team and I can focus on other business priorities.
