Cons: Limited options, nagware, very poor accuracy. In fact, it requires so many corrections that it is probably faster just to enter the document by hand in many cases.
I downloaded this freeware app to test it, and unfortunately I was not very impressed. Installation went fine and the app launched okay. It was pretty easy to use (no surprise, given its limited options), but the accuracy was very poor. I gave it a very easy document: a professionally scanned page of an academic journal at a good resolution in a standard font. Unfortunately, even with such an easy file, SimpleOCR still made mistakes on around 20-30% of the words. Honestly, I could have just typed in the page faster than it took to correct everything that SimpleOCR missed. However, I'll still give it a couple stars because it's free.
