Is an OMR Scanner Worth Its Price?
Many organisations across the globe rely on OMR (Optical Mark Recognition) technology to conduct surveys, feedback reports, multiple-choice exams, and more. However, OMR scanners are typically manufactured outside India and have to be imported into the country; an OMR scanner price is around Rs 4 lakh! Fortunately, today, with the introduction of special software such as OMR Home’s Verificare, organisations no longer need to depend on expensive OMR scanners.
The advantage of OMR software – Verificare
- Any scanner: Verificare does away with the need to buy expensive OMR scanners. Instead, any scanner can be used, whether it is a flatbed scanner, automatic document feeder scanner (ADF), or a multifunction printer (MFP) scanner. So, expenditure is greatly reduced as Verificare allows you to use any regular scanner that suits your purpose.Verificare software is available in four premium modules that users can choose based on the volume of OMR sheet scanning they expect to perform. As opposed to the OMR scanner price of Rs 4 lakh, Verificare software starts from just Rs 20,000.
● No limitations: With OMR scanners,
users are bound by certain limitations. For example, if they wish to crop
images, the OMR scanner price would increase. Similarly, any additional plug-ins,
such as the capacity to read barcodes, automatically increases the OMR scanner
price. On the other hand, Verificare allows users to crop images as well as
read barcodes with the help of a cost-effective plug-in.
● Convenience: When it comes to maintenance, upgradation, and IT support, an OMR scanner can prove to be inconvenient as the manufacturer is based outside India. Finding reliable and knowledgeable IT support and upgradation of the hardware can be almost impossible within the country. In contrast, Verificare offers users robust and reliable customisation to adhere to clients’ needs. The software itself is maintenance-free. In case any assistance is required by users, there is a dedicated team offering online support 24/7. Moreover, just like a traditional OMR scanner, Verificare also provides a 100% guarantee to its users.
Features of Verificare software models
Verificare software is available in four module varieties—starter (Rs. 20,000), standard (Rs. 35,000), professional (Rs. 50,000), and business (Rs. 70,000).
The
common features of all these modules are as follows:
●
Reads all types of OMR sheets
●
A sheet designing tool
●
Exports data to CSV and excel
●
Crops and saves images
●
Free support for one year
●
The starter module has a one-year validity,
while the other modules have lifetime validity.
In addition to the above features, the professional and business modules offer a speed booster plug-in that increases the reading of the OMR forms by three times. It also has a barcode plug-in allowing the scanner to read, generate, and print barcodes.
The business module has an additional plug-in that allows the software to read traditional OMR forms accurately.
Therefore, instead of paying an exorbitant OMR scanner price for a bulky and cumbersome piece of hardware, users can choose Verificare software that is convenient and easy to use with 24/7 support, all at an extremely cost-effective price point.
