ScanPix vs CamScanner
CamScanner is a popular, capable mobile scanner. ScanPix scans too — then keeps going: it organises, lets you build catalogues, collect documents, e-sign, and work as a team. A workspace built for businesses, not just a scan-to-PDF app.

How they compare
CamScanner is a fast, well-made mobile scanner that millions of people rely on to turn paper into clean PDFs. ScanPix is positioned differently: it scans too, but it's built as a business workspace rather than a scan-to-PDF app — so the same place that captures a document also organises it, presents your products as catalogues, collects files from customers and lets a team work together.

Frequently asked questions
Is ScanPix a good CamScanner alternative?
If you only need to scan to PDF, CamScanner does that well. ScanPix is a good alternative when scanning is just the first step and you also want to organise documents, build product catalogues, collect files from others and work as a team — in one workspace built for business.
Can I move my documents from CamScanner to ScanPix?
Yes. Export your existing scans as PDFs or images from CamScanner and import them into ScanPix, where they become part of one searchable, organised store. You can also re-capture documents directly in ScanPix as you go.
Does ScanPix scan documents as well?
Yes. ScanPix captures with edge detection, cleans up the image and produces clear PDFs, the same everyday scanning you'd expect — then it keeps going with organisation, catalogues, requests and e-sign around that scan.
