Hi Tina,

I went to have a look at their web site, and for my particular scanner 
(Epson V700) there are about 10 flavors of the software available, ranging 
in price from 49 to 500 Euro. Mindboggling!!! And as far as I can tell, 
there is no easy comparison chart anywhere.

The software may be great, but their web site needs help :-)

Cheers,
Nathan
