MomDot Reviews ScanDigital

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

‘MommyGoggles’ from the MomDot review team wrote a wonderful review of ScanDigital after trying our service. She described her experience using our service to convert her video tapes of her daughter’s childhood to digital format in detail. Check out what she had to say:

Preserve your VHS memories with ScanDigital

I think we all have those old video tapes stored away in boxes that we are telling ourselves “I swear I am going to have that VHS put on a DVD”, yet time passes and we don’t get it done. Why? Maybe money is an issue. Time? Who knows why we take so long to get something preserved that is so precious to us, but today is a whole new day. 

I had a very special opportunity to work with ScanDigital to have a VHS tape that I have of my 14 year old daughter, in to a DVD that will last a whole lot longer than a VHS tape can last. I have had this tape of “K” and have added on footage of her ultrasound from when I was pregnant with her, the day she was born, and so many years of precious memories that were captured on VHS. My process with ScanDigital was so fast, so easy and I am truly amazed by their customer service and speedy work! 

Here was my process: 

  • I registered for an account on www.scandigital.com on 2/8/09
  • I went in and told them that I had a VHS tape to transfer, clicked through super fast and printed a shipping label. 
  • My VHS tape was shipped on 2/10/09
  • ScanDigital received shipment on 2/13/09
  • Order was completed on 2/18/09
  • I received my finished product on 2/23/09

I received emails all throughout the entire process letting me know they received my shipment, that my order was complete, as well as that my products was shipped. I LOVE being updated that way! I was beyond excited when my finished product arrived! Not only did they send me a nice, keepsake case with the finished DVD in it, but they also customized the cover with screen shots of each chapter that is included in my DVD.

 

How much was this? To have a VHS put on a DVD was just $19.95! They also do pictures on DVD and so much more. If you have home movies laying around, get them to ScanDigital! You will not regret it!

 

The quality of my DVD is amazing! Honestly, it is better than the VHS tape was!

Thank you to MomDot Reviews and ScanDigital for a truly heartwarming opportunity!

PMA Tradeshow

Friday, March 13th, 2009

Guess where I was all last week? In VEGAS! Okay, it’s not exactly how it sounds. I was working. Trust me, it wasn’t a leisurely week in Vegas- it was hard work!
The ScanDigi team and I went out to exhibit at the Photo Marketing Association (PMA) Tradeshow and Convention. Photography enthusiasts from all over the world gather at PMA’s annual event and we definitely didn’t want to miss out.

The trip started Monday morning for the driving crew, responsible for bringing and setting up our booth and other material. Clearly we chose the strongest of our team: tiny Jenny, one of our newer ScanDigital team members, and me!
The two of us were really champs that day. We not only drove that day, but had to carry all of our booth’s supplies clear across the convention center floor and set up. You can tell from the picture that we were quite proud of ourselves. Let me tell you, it wasn’t easy! We had the sore muscles, bruises and scrapes to prove it.

By the time we were all set up the following morning and the doors were about to open to all the attendees, Anderson and Matt stroll in, ready to work. Well, they were ready to work after Matt had his coffee, Anderson his Diet Coke, and both enjoyed apple fritters. They conveniently missed all the heavy lifting, lucky ducks!

Our ScanDigi team hit the ground running and spoke to hundreds of people as they walked by. Everyone seemed really interested in learning more about our service. There were certainly a lot of potential customers in attendance, but the real treat is when we meet someone who has already used ScanDigital’s service. It’s always great to hear their feedback face-to-face.

We also met with some amazing members of the press, discussed business opportunities with other companies and spread the word about ScanDigital to the photo-loving crowd. We received really great feedback and anticipate a great response.

May have been hard work, but we definitely squeezed in a little fun as well. One evening after the show, we did a little gambling and went out to dinner. By ‘we’ I really mean Anderson and Matt. Jenny and I couldn’t drag them away from the Black Jack tables! I did finally get them to play Roulette with me though, which was a lot of fun. Even funnier though, Matt had a couple female fans at the table and came away with nicknames that I won’t let him live down.

Our last night there, we all decided to go out and celebrate our hard work. After all, standing on your feet 9+ hours a day isn’t easy. We went out to a delicious dinner at Craftsteak, which I could write a whole separate blog post about, but will spare you. I’ll just say Just one word – YUM. I’m such a foodie! Even Jenny, a self-proclaimed picky eater who only sticks to chicken, enjoyed it.  Check us all out at the restaurant here!

Melissa, one of ScanDigital’s first employees, was actually in Vegas that same weekend and met us at Studio 54. So much fun!

All in all, it was a great trip. Who knew a week in Vegas could actually be ‘productive?’
