As an IT guy for a 700+ person company, yes please continue this. It could really help our purchasing decisions (and yes, these scansnap scanners have worked fairly well in our experience even on terminal server environments)
This is one of my all-time favorite purchases. Have had it for years, and have never regretted the purchase. Customer service is great, and it's easy to maintain.
Business side is interesting for me. It's good to see that self-employment is not just rainbows and sun shines. Even these minor things could be done effectively in small businesses.
I think it's great that you and your staff makes videos that aren't just focused on consumer grade stuff. I'm pretty sure a sizeable portion of your subscribers are businessmen anyway, so your experiences with business-grade tech could open the eyes of others. Despite it being a business product, I can see a lot of consumers buying it based on your review, because it has functionality that is hard to come by in other products. I say keep the reviews coming of the tech you and your staff uses on a day to day basis.
I have the ScanSnap S510M, have had it for years. I don't know how many books I've scanned, let alone documents, and these scanners just keep going and going. I remember I paid like $600 back in the day, and honestly it's one of the best things I've bought. So useful! It saves so much time, and it makes it super easy to put anything of importance on the computer. So I would recommend this product to anyone, not just business owners. I used mine to convert all my college textbooks to PDFs, so I could have them on my tablet and laptop and wouldn't have to have carry the book around. Not to mention they are all now available on the cloud so I can reference them anytime anywhere. One of many awesome things you can do with this scanner!
Please keep doing this stuff. While the vast majority won't be interested in it for ourselves, many of us are influencers at work, home and 'other' and letting you guys do the research so we can just say "this office chair" when appropriate is really handy, if only to give us a baseline for our own research!
As an accountant in an office trying to become paperless, this scanner is a God send and has saved so much time in our office that virtually everyone has one now.
NIce.... Thank you for this and YES keep reviewing of the business products coming. Very appreciative of the style of quick and to the point but still very informative review.
I'd love to see more business level tech reviews as well as enterprise class evaluations. Your videos and reviews have made my mind up before in both realms of Bussiness and Consumer grade products and I have yet to have to return or junk anything you have shown!
I braced myself for buyer's remorse after bringing home the IX500, but within a couple of hours I changed my mind and all of my expectations of what a business scanner should be. 10 stars out of 5. And Linus, keep the small business stuff coming! Here's one that you might find fun and a necessary evil for all small businesses that just can't use their cell phones for everything...OnSIP VOIP and eBay refurbished VOIP phones. I outfitted 8 offices for $15/phone and $50/month. Cheers!
I pretty much watch what ever you guys put up, because I'm always learning. y'all are my one stop shop for information. If I see something that I like and need a review on it. I search this channel first. I'm going to forward this vid to a friend of mine who owns a small IT company. Love it guys!
I am using one of those all the time at work. I 100% support making more of those videos, people need to learn how awesome professional business grade stuff is. It changes lifes.
As a business owner, these sorts of solutions are ALWAYS welcome! I owe you guys a great big thanks with that NAS video. I had been using the traditional backup methods with HHD + butt loads of caddies for over 10 years. I now use a Qnap along with Dropbox, you guys have saved me a ton of time and money! Big thanks!
Far and away your best review of a product so far! The vast majority of things you review are like "yeah maybe one day when I get rich" but this review is of a product that could help me in my every day life!
It's a nice change to see both business and consumer grade tech. It just means that you are accommodating for all different types of viewers. Great Job Linus LinusTechTips
I bought this scanner a couple of years ago. I have a small consulting business. The scanner is brilliant for my needs in cleaning up my office and converting the myriad paper documents, records, receipts, etc., into searchable files. So much better and faster than a flatbed scanner. Yes, much more expensive than flatbed scanner, but time saving alone justifies the purchase. And the software is good and easy to use as well. This video was good, concise and learnt a few additional things I could do but didn't know about. The video might seem like overselling, but the machine lives up to the hype for me.
More videos like this would be good, it's a great way to let viewers with businesses know what else is out there, especially when someone such as myself tends to deal mostly with consumer grade products at work.
Hell yes, please do more of these! It's actually difficult to find trust worthy reviews on stuff like this. I've been looking for a small printer for my space. I have an absolutely HUGE printer/scanner/fax machine that's half the size of my desk currently. This looks perfect.
Yeah like wired network usb to rj45 server adapter to the fujitsu scanner (with individualized scanned folders and settings via software interface)? Has anyone tried this yet? btw i know theres the wireless option but would like to keep it wired.
I use this for my small business too. It's so nice not to have paper all over my desk anymore. I think you did the right thing telling people about this. :)
I know this video is old, but my wife brought one of these home from work, raving about it. So I thought to investigate what the "Big Deal" was for a scanner which I assumed was 30 - 50 Dollars. I see now that I missed a shift in the market back in 2013 and apparently scanners are now back in the 500 dollar range thanks to this product. And your review is great, as it catalogs this moment in time when humanity was tired of the cheap scanners, and willing to pay for one that worked. I don't think you even realized the significance of this.
First, try to improve your English before making that comment. And 2nd you should know that "professional" is not just a green screen and talk like a robot. He's professional on his own way, doing what people call professional is not the only way to go. Just sayin'.
asho78 White backdrops are very commonly used... usually green screened then just a white back ground with sometimes a light radial grey... Also, Apple
***** With all the respect, I know English is not the only language 'cause I'm from Argentina where Spanish is the main language. I said that because if he wanna get an answer he SHOULD speak English. And what he said is not an opinion, is a proposition. I'm not here to start a debate, but thanks for your opinion.
Even though I don't want/need a scanner there are a couple reasons why I like these kinds of videos. 1) I like to see the new tech; both hardware and the software integration of all the different devices that it interacts with. 2) It's kind of like a mini "behind the scenes" video, which i like. With 144k views of your studio tour, I think its safe to say I'm not the only one. One other thing. I've seen some people suggest that you get a proper office... I kind of like the setup you have. I use to think "tech videos being shot on a kitchen themed set, how charming". After watching the studio tour and seeing that its a real kitchen (and bathroom) the charm factor has gone through the roof! Whether you start a "Bathroom Benchmarks" series or move to a boring old office, I'll keep watching.
Honestly I don't really come to this channel to look for things to buy, I come mostly to stay updated on technologies regardless of whether they are for businesses or for consumers. It's also nice to know what is generally good and what is bad even if I don't intend to own it. So I guess what I'm saying is that I don't mind business oriented products. One thing I would appreciate, though, is a regular (annual, most likely) video showcasing some of the best "linus approved" consumer products of the year. And I don't just mean products that you personally love but ones that you can wholeheartedly recommend. So, if someone is in the market for a monitor, they can look at your 2014 linus approved video and start their search there. The scope of products that you can endorse might be kind of small because you don't do a TON of reviews, but then maybe you could hold official polls on the forum and have popular products among the viewers be featured in that annual video? Just an idea, take it or leave it :)
Just wanted to say that business tip videos are a plus. You do a great job on your reviews, detailing in the areas that I am usually looking for when they are not present on the sellers spec page. Keep the business videos coming!
Keep Business grade things coming Linus. Always great to see really interesting things. I just installed one of these at a client's office a few months ago. Didn't have the time to play with it though.
Pretty much, any video you make is one I'd watch. Office Equiptment, Production Gear, PC Hardware & Accessories. Keep em coming! I'd give this video a 5 Star if I could.
Loved the way you did this no time waste synopsis. I have been using this scanner for 3 years, yet I managed to pick up a couple of helpful tips! Excellent Job! Would love to see more small business related stuff.
Just bought a scansnap ix1600 because of this video! Would like to see more behind the scenes stuff related to your day to day business stuff these days too!
Great machine. It is a work horse. It has glitches at time but most of the time it is load document an press the button. When a document misfeeds, it is super easy to open it up and re-feed. A useful review, please keep them coming.I bought it first by an online recommendation but I have used this review to recommend it via email, twitter and Facebook.
Keep reviewing stuff like this. I'm an IT consultant and I spend a fair amount of time just looking for products that my clients need to do simple tasks. I do feel pretty good about myself now since I just settled on and installed this scanner at a client less than a month ago... It is a great product.
Hi LMG Team! :) I just wanted to comment here, I know this video is older at this point but the information has proven to be very valuable to me. I work for a customer who just purchased 3 of these scanners and your review has helped me very quickly come up to speed on the product. Thank you, thank you, thank you! :) ..and yes I think you should keep giving us these videos on the office tools you guys use. You have a young business and I think your team has some awesome insight into many emerging ways to handle day-to-day operations. :)
actually pretty nice of you reviewing a business product, would like to see more of that stuff, maybe a separate sub-channel LinusTechTips - with servers, switch-stuff etc.
Love this approach... Small Business Hardware, that may help me ease up on the manual work, and automate as much of my day as possible is great! do more of these videos LinusTechTips
I like the business reviews Linus! I work for a software company that sells quite a few scanners and our customers are always looking for recommendations and this one looks like a good contender!
Keep it up with the Business stuff....this review helped me decide to buy this - i like your honesty regarding some of the crappier features but it basically does the job and saves time and thats what we want.
I know what, I really want more practical tech videos like these. Titan Z is fine and stuff, but a multifunction printer or WiFi scanner I can actually see myself spending money on.
This thing is pricey, but I'm so glad I watched this and decided to buy one. I've been using a Samsung all-in-one with a flatbed scanner and document feeder for years, but this thing blows that out of the water. It was even fun to scan my 7 1/2 years of business receipts, and I never thought I'd say that. While it was definitely a bigger hit to the wallet than I would have liked, I wish I had purchased this sooner, and it is probably one of the best purchases I have ever made for my business.
I love reviews of business focused products. I love tech and I am a business owner. Needless to say there is too few reviews of business rated products. Also I think filming in the kitchen is fine.
I just want all the reviews, consumer, business, etc. Review a box of Kraft dinner Linus, I will watch it. On more than one occasion your word on a product has influenced my purchasing decisions. So, keep at it man.
Although the video is completely useless as a general consumer, I still find it pretty cool seeing all the neat new things that come out. As long as these mainly stick to when there's nothing all that interesting on the PC side of the market i'd say good job keep it up!
I personally like seeing variety in the types of products you review. Though I may not ever need the info on this specific scanner, if the time comes when I ever do need a scanner, or need to recommend one, seeing the occasional videos like this helps keep me up to date on what features to look for, and I'd love to see videos on just about anything you're willing to review :)
I think that was great, the more variety the merrier. If it's all computer I'm all for it. And small business tech and advice is pretty cool and handy for many in this day and age.
Business side of thing is not that bad, it is still in the "tech" range. Keep up the good work and bring us more wider tech review variation (not only just consumer grade stuff).
Our office NeatScanner finally kicked the bucket after 7+ years of use. Went to look at a new one and the reviews are absolutely horrid on it. 39% of them are 1 star ratings just on the software alone. I took a look on Amazon and saw this, recommended it immediately to my boss and pretty darn excited to see it arrive at the office. Thanks Linus, absolute amazing review.. should sit well in the company office here!
I just got myself a used ix500 now in Late 2023 and it's still amazing ^^
As an IT guy for a 700+ person company, yes please continue this. It could really help our purchasing decisions (and yes, these scansnap scanners have worked fairly well in our experience even on terminal server environments)
I dont really care what you put up, i still watch it
Exactly
and I still enjoy it
boopidipresto
He should do more and different product. Think about drones, robot vacuum cleaners, remote controlls for all equiment in house and stuff like that.
Same. I don't even need or want a scanner I just watch it 'cause it's Linus. :)
I can't believe I just watched a video about a scanner, DAMNIT. I watch every video on this channel.
That's the power of Linus, we can't escape him.
***** He has brainwashed us!
You fuckin know it!
I just came here for that thumbnail...
I was just thinking the same thing, I am never going to get this yet I just watched a 8 min vid about it. Fkn linus is powerful.
This is one of my all-time favorite purchases. Have had it for years, and have never regretted the purchase. Customer service is great, and it's easy to maintain.
I will never buy one, I won't need one in the foreseeable future, yet I'm here Linus, watching your video.
Fuck.
For somebody who is currently finishing school and going into the IT field, seeing these products are awesome. Keep them coming guys.
Business side is interesting for me. It's good to see that self-employment is not just rainbows and sun shines. Even these minor things could be done effectively in small businesses.

Only Linus can make me sit through an 8 minute video about a scanner.
Even if you're talking about a paperclip I'd still watch your videos
As an accountant in an office trying to become paperless, this scanner is a God send and has saved so much time in our office that virtually everyone has one now.
The price is the only thing stopping one of these being at every workstation at our office. Fantastic little machines.
Time for a review of the ix1500!
NIce.... Thank you for this and YES keep reviewing of the business products coming. Very appreciative of the style of quick and to the point but still very informative review.
I know this is super late but I love when you do reviews like this because it really helps me when I'm looking to buy products like this.
Thanks!

Why are they called Kensington locks? Was there a guy names Kensington who kept having his stuff stolen?
Probably the guy who invented it.
Is the name of the patent.
Great video, who would have known that scanners can be interesting :D
It's a nice change to see both business and consumer grade tech. It just means that you are accommodating for all different types of viewers. Great Job Linus LinusTechTips

Make videos on anything useful in the office as well as the consumer grade stuff.
The force brought me here.
More videos like this would be good, it's a great way to let viewers with businesses know what else is out there, especially when someone such as myself tends to deal mostly with consumer grade products at work.
Hell yes, please do more of these! It's actually difficult to find trust worthy reviews on stuff like this. I've been looking for a small printer for my space. I have an absolutely HUGE printer/scanner/fax machine that's half the size of my desk currently. This looks perfect.
Sweet! Always like a bit of diversity.
Here, here.
How about a new update on the ix500!
Yeah like wired network usb to rj45 server adapter to the fujitsu scanner (with individualized scanned folders and settings via software interface)? Has anyone tried this yet? btw i know theres the wireless option but would like to keep it wired.

your printer is on the toilet?
Check out Linsus teck group video his networking stuff is in a bathroom its funny but the best thing the water is still on lol
plz use a white dropback so we wont you are at the kitchen ;-)
it will look more profesional
First, try to improve your English before making that comment. And 2nd you should know that "professional" is not just a green screen and talk like a robot. He's professional on his own way, doing what people call professional is not the only way to go. Just sayin'.
A white back drop would look horrible, it would just look boring. Who the hell would use a white back drop, WHITE! ...
asho78 White backdrops are very commonly used... usually green screened then just a white back ground with sometimes a light radial grey... Also, Apple
A white background would look so boring!! At least with a kitchen I have something to catch my eye
***** With all the respect, I know English is not the only language 'cause I'm from Argentina where Spanish is the main language. I said that because if he wanna get an answer he SHOULD speak English. And what he said is not an opinion, is a proposition. I'm not here to start a debate, but thanks for your opinion.
Watching Linus's video in 1.5x or 2x speed is still audible and is a joy.
Love hearing about the business side of things as a small business owner this is a huge help.
This is like the Evernote scanner? I want one. Linus, make reviews of anything, we watch the videos because of your energy.
Even though I don't want/need a scanner there are a couple reasons why I like these kinds of videos.
1) I like to see the new tech; both hardware and the software integration of all the different devices that it interacts with.

I like you post something like this because I can see something like this really increase the efficiency at our office.
Keep Business grade things coming Linus. Always great to see really interesting things. I just installed one of these at a client's office a few months ago. Didn't have the time to play with it though.
I really like the idea of being shown what you guys use internally as part of the business side of Linus Tech Tips. More please!
its really cool to see commercial products covered a bit as well. who knows what we will need to know or use in the future. great video
Pretty much, any video you make is one I'd watch. Office Equiptment, Production Gear, PC Hardware & Accessories. Keep em coming! I'd give this video a 5 Star if I could.
Loved the way you did this no time waste synopsis. I have been using this scanner for 3 years, yet I managed to pick up a couple of helpful tips! Excellent Job! Would love to see more small business related stuff.
Really liked this vid, it's cool to see what businesses like yours use daily rather than just consumer tech.
Just bought a scansnap ix1600 because of this video! Would like to see more behind the scenes stuff related to your day to day business stuff these days too!
Great machine. It is a work horse. It has glitches at time but most of the time it is load document an press the button. When a document misfeeds, it is super easy to open it up and re-feed. A useful review, please keep them coming.I bought it first by an online recommendation but I have used this review to recommend it via email, twitter and Facebook.
We still use these things at work lol, can't believe I found an LTT video on it explaining the features. This is going right to my boss!
As a business owner myself I do like to see what my goto for gaming tech also is showcasing in business tech, I say keep going!
Keep em coming linus. it's good to see and learn about stuff we don't unusally follow.
Keep reviewing stuff like this. I'm an IT consultant and I spend a fair amount of time just looking for products that my clients need to do simple tasks. I do feel pretty good about myself now since I just settled on and installed this scanner at a client less than a month ago... It is a great product.
Many people are in the market for both business and consumer class products so please continue reviewing both.
Hi LMG Team! :)
I just wanted to comment here, I know this video is older at this point but the information has proven to be very valuable to me. I work for a customer who just purchased 3 of these scanners and your review has helped me very quickly come up to speed on the product.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! :)
..and yes I think you should keep giving us these videos on the office tools you guys use. You have a young business and I think your team has some awesome insight into many emerging ways to handle day-to-day operations. :)
actually pretty nice of you reviewing a business product, would like to see more of that stuff, maybe a separate sub-channel LinusTechTips - with servers, switch-stuff etc.
Not a business user but i still find it cool seeing the other side of new tech that i don't hear about because its not for consumers
I appreciate these videos because if you can rely on the products to help run your business then i can rely on them at home.
No matter what you review, I'm glad you do. Maybe getting a scanner like this will help me get a business up and running.
Linus, you have such a diversity of followers, I think the mix of user end products and fun, gaming products are great! Keep up the good work!!!!
Thank you linus. When i first saw your video i can not stop n i learn a lot from you n your group. Hope you all never stop n keep going strong.
I set this baby up at the law office I work at.... Everyone thanks me for convincing the owner to buy one. They are AWESOME!
Love this approach... Small Business Hardware, that may help me ease up on the manual work, and automate as much of my day as possible is great! do more of these videos LinusTechTips
You have no idea how great of timing this video was. I was watching it before leaving to go to Best But and get a scanner. I really like this option.
I just watched a video about a business grade scanner. . . and I loved it. Good job Linus.
I like the business reviews Linus! I work for a software company that sells quite a few scanners and our customers are always looking for recommendations and this one looks like a good contender!
Im not a business man but i still like videos like this. All tech is welcome :) Ty for the video
I appreciate videos like these sir Linus.
Please do more reviews on these office helpers more in the future!
More of the professional/very high end stuff please. I love seeing new things that are amazing (but expensive :/)
Keep it up with the Business stuff....this review helped me decide to buy this - i like your honesty regarding some of the crappier features but it basically does the job and saves time and thats what we want.
I know what, I really want more practical tech videos like these. Titan Z is fine and stuff, but a multifunction printer or WiFi scanner I can actually see myself spending money on.
Glad you review it, even do this is old as hell my scanner has given me a lot of miles and still up and running.... best investment for my office...
This thing is pricey, but I'm so glad I watched this and decided to buy one. I've been using a Samsung all-in-one with a flatbed scanner and document feeder for years, but this thing blows that out of the water.

I love reviews of business focused products. I love tech and I am a business owner. Needless to say there is too few reviews of business rated products.
Also I think filming in the kitchen is fine.
Productivity ideas are great, I'm always on the look out for great tools.
I like how they timed the ad at the start to being equal to one click of the right arrow key :D
I just want all the reviews, consumer, business, etc. Review a box of Kraft dinner Linus, I will watch it. On more than one occasion your word on a product has influenced my purchasing decisions. So, keep at it man.
The scansnap is awesome if you've got tons of documentation that you need filed electronically. Saved me a ton of time when I had my old job.
I work in enterprise document imaging, and it's always really neat to see imaging products in the wild :)
Although the video is completely useless as a general consumer, I still find it pretty cool seeing all the neat new things that come out. As long as these mainly stick to when there's nothing all that interesting on the PC side of the market i'd say good job keep it up!
I personally like seeing variety in the types of products you review. Though I may not ever need the info on this specific scanner, if the time comes when I ever do need a scanner, or need to recommend one, seeing the occasional videos like this helps keep me up to date on what features to look for, and I'd love to see videos on just about anything you're willing to review :)
Great review. Just got one myself in an attempt to move closer to a paperless office. Together with DevonThink it is working really well so far.
Some of us have their own business, so beside the customer stuff is also nice to see business stuff.
Although it may seem like a boring topic, you pulled this video out of the bag Linus!
I like these videos because they are things you researched and bought for yourself/business.
I think that was great, the more variety the merrier. If it's all computer I'm all for it. And small business tech and advice is pretty cool and handy for many in this day and age.
Business side of thing is not that bad, it is still in the "tech" range. Keep up the good work and bring us more wider tech review variation (not only just consumer grade stuff).
Yes, please add business/enterprise oriented product reviews and overviews as a new category.
Really like the scanner and would love to see more business-grade tech being reviewed :)
I like both the business and consumer grade video's! Keep the great work up linus! (and the other staff ofcourse!)
Our office NeatScanner finally kicked the bucket after 7+ years of use. Went to look at a new one and the reviews are absolutely horrid on it. 39% of them are 1 star ratings just on the software alone. I took a look on Amazon and saw this, recommended it immediately to my boss and pretty darn excited to see it arrive at the office. Thanks Linus, absolute amazing review.. should sit well in the company office here!
I'd love to have one of these. If I ever have the space and the cash. Thank for this review. I've always wanted to see one of these in action.
