CRM 2016 Scanning Business Cards directly into CRM 2016

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

We have a client running CRM 2016 on premise and wants to have scanning of business cards directly into CRM. Some of the solutions out there either do not work correctly or do not support CRM 2016 specifically. They have Fujitsu S1500 scanners, but they are no longer being supported. Are there any bullet proof methods available that we can review before bringing to our client's attention?

    A generic card scanner to Outlook will work just fine if you set-up your outlook integration to generate these new contacts into Dynamics CRM.

    Also, a little older, but there's this:

    And I've seen this mentioned before, but haven't used it:

    Will give it a shot. We are evaluating several options but nothing that the client likes so far. He is looking for a direct scan of business cards into MSCRM 2016.

    Hi John,

    LiiD for CRM works for CRM 2016 and you can download a free trial on the website (http://liid.com/). The trial version captures name, title, company, phone number, email and uploads the data to Dynamics. Yo can also add custom fields if you'd like to.
