Powered by Raven Cloud, users can now log into and connect their scanner directly to their Neat account. Users will see Neat as a scanning destination on their Raven Scanners and with a simple touch of the screen will scan and send documents directly to the Neat platform. As they are scanning, users can specify the document type and select the folder in their Neat file cabinet where they want to store the document.

Raven (Risk Analysis and Vulnerability Enumeration for CI/CD) is an open-source CI/CD pipeline security scanner that makes hidden risks visible by connecting the dots across vulnerabilities woven throughout the pipeline that, when viewed collectively, reveal a much greater risk than when assessed as one-off CVEs.
Fujitsu all the way. My business went paperless in 2007. Bought one of these back then and scanned a ton of stuff. Agree with Glen, over time I have a rule. Do not make paper so my needs have reduced too. I have 3 of these scanners, one of which was an Evernote version I was able to upgrade to standard Fujitsu software.
I thought they were expensive at the time but more than worth it.
I also have an Epson flatbed for slides and pictures but for bulk paper scanning Fujitsu is the standard.
It is also incredibly fast.
I'm not sure what changed between Unraid 6.10.3 to 6.11.5, but my Raven document scanner isn't able to connect to my SMB share for file backup. It gives me a "Undefined: undefined" error. I was hoping someone with some more knowledge could help me out. Everything was working on 6.10.3, upgraded to 6.11.5 and it wouldn't connect, then downgraded back to 6.10.3 and it worked again. Unfortunately I didn't save any logs so I can't help in that way. I'm just wondering if some sort of protocol changed between these versions. Or, maybe it changed a default setting that I didn't notice. The read and write permissions were correct and I tried all combinations with Public, Secure and Private security. I also enabled NetBIOS and WSD in case it was a SMBv1 issue. I'm at a loss.
I opened a case with Raven support too. It looks like the app on the scanner is using the smbj library to connect, and their app is writing a file called "raven-test-file.txt" to the share and then quickly deleting it to make sure the destination is available and writable (and if you make a file called raven-test-file.txt yourself, it will delete it). I'm wondering if the file is getting deleted before the lock on the file is released, and that's what is causing the Samba crash. I'll post if I discover anything else useful.
Just wanted to chime in to say I am running into the same issue w/ my Raven scanner and unraid (which had been working for quite some time). Hoping you get a resolution from their support - let us know!
Based on the logs you provided, it seems that Samba encountered an internal error and crashed. The log indicates a "PANIC" and an "assert failed" error message. The error message also refers to a file "raven-test-file.txt" that couldn't acquire a share mode lock, as well as a file descriptor handle assertion that failed.
I just found out that Raven scanner is going out of business. Will this software will work directly with my mac mini M2 Pro desktop? My question, can you scan and send to any fax number in the United States. Raven.com states Raven Cloud is ending but comments on Reddit.com state the entire company is going out of business. I own a Raven Pro scanner purchased May 2023. I use the fax software in Raven often and trying to determine what to do once Raven ends.
provides scalable document management with unlimited storage, document editing, role-based security, advanced text recognition, robust search capabilities, sharing, folder organization and integrated importing via scanner, computer, email or fax.
Likewise, if you're not dealing with a tremendous number of paper documents, you might not understand why you'd need a scanner with More Power. In fact, you might not even identify with needing a scanner. But if you're dealing with boxes of documents from an estate you're suddenly managing, or if you are a realtor with enormous paper contracts, or if you're digitizing a storeroom of older documents, you know that the time it takes to scan a stack of documents adds up.
To do so, I repurposed one of my Mac minis and bought a Scansnap scanner. We also paid a young friend to spend all day sitting in front of the computer, scanning stacks of documents and labeling the PDFs. Each day after she left, we moved all those documents from the computer to our server. It took months. As fast as that Scansnap was, it was the bottleneck. It had a 50 sheet capacity and could scan 20 pages per minute.
It was painful and expensive, but we did it. But, oh, if we'd had the Raven Pro, the job would have gone three times faster. Of course, back then the Raven Pro document scanner didn't exist. But when Raven sent me one to review, I thought back on those days and realized just how big a help it would have been.
There's another big benefit of the Raven over the other excellent scanners I've used. It has a big (and by big, I mean the size of an iPad mini) display. You don't have to dedicate a computer to scanning. You can label documents, examine them, and upload them, all from the scanner.
All is not ideal, even if we strongly recommend this device. The scanner mostly scans to the internet and does not buffer between scans. So once you do a scan, you have to wait for it to upload. I have an insanely fast fiber internet connection, so I didn't notice any delay, but some users have found themselves tapping their fingers waiting for the upload to complete before going onto the next scan. That defeats the benefits of the ridiculously fast physical scanning time.
Second, it looks like Raven intercepts documents before they go to Dropbox and the other services. It seems like the documents first go to Raven's own cloud service, and then it sends them on to the destination. There are obviously two issues with this. First, that means your documents pass through two cloud locations, with all the attendant security issues. Second, Raven is a small company and if it goes belly up, you might not be able to use your scanner.
To be fair, Fujitsu, the company that makes my beloved Scansnap scanners, is anything but small. But older Scansnaps haven't been updated to more recent operating systems (particularly on the Mac), effectively rendering them obsolete.
I haven't hidden my love for the Scansnap line of scanners. Except for the ix1600, which Fujitsu sent me for review, I've purchased all my Scansnaps out of my own pocket, and haven't regretted spending a penny. They are great scanners, and are considerably less expensive than the Raven Pro.
So, let me bottom line it. This is not a scanner for the scanner-curious. This is a scanner for someone (probably a company or department, but possibly also an individual like me with an insurmountable family crisis to surmount) who needs speed, convenience, and capacity.
Raven offers four scanners designated as Original, Standard, Compact, and the Pro model reviewed here. The Pro design comes directly from the makers in black and white colour schemes and costs $649.85 with free 2-day shipping in the USA. That price comes with free access to Raven Cloud Document Storage included, and at this time, there are no limits to how many scanned documents you can store on this facility.
One thing: I do not use my phone to take photos of ID or support documentation. I use a Magic Wand scanner which saves photos onto a mini card. I believe this is more secure, and certainly less of a liability. The software to download from the Magic Wand is on my phone.
I am looking for some recommendations on a document scanner that can send scans to Sharepoint. This scanner also needs to be able to OCR as well. Also as little interaction from the end user is necessary. Ideally it would be nice that they hit a button on the scanner and that is it. The scanner will be scanning all the packing slips from our receiving department. So the scanner will need a ATF, the ability to handle different size paper, and also have the option to make each scan its own PDF. It would be nice to have a network scanner, wired or wireless. But if a PC is needed that can work as well.
Right now I am looking at the Fujitsu fi-7300NX, the Canon ScanFront 400 or the Epson DS-780N. I am leaning towards the Fujitsu, I have used them in the past and they seem like robust scanners. But I know very little about the Canon and Epson scanners as well, or what else there might be.
Depending on volumes, any HP Enterprise scanner or MFP will do both machine based OCR and Direct scan to SharePoint. We have had very good results with the 8500 series. They are pricey but absolute tanks and the ability to create multiple shortcuts or use network credentials to scan to user specific locations.
The load will be somewhere between 100 and 200 a day. I know I will most likely need to install some software on the back end and program a scanner. The one thing I don't know is how robust the scanners are. When I check out each site they state the daily duty cycle is in the thousands. But I don't know how that would also be real world scenario with different paper weights and different paper sized.
SO just an update to this. We got two different Fujitsu scanners the N7100E and the fi-7300NX. The N7100E is an older model, but I was able to get the scanner to send to SharePoint online as well as OCR PDFs. The fi-7300NX I was able to get that scanner to scan to SharePoint online, but I guess Fujitsu removed the native OCR function on the scanner. The fi-7300NX has to use an outside software to OCR documents. So the 7300NX is a no go for us. I also got a Xerox N60w scanner, I was able to get the scanner to sent to SharePoint online, but there is an option to OCR PDFs or create a PDF per page, but not both. So I have to chose between one or the other. I have support looking into that for me. But at this point both Fujitsus and the Xerox were not straight forward with configuring the scanning going to SharePoint online.
