ABBYY Vantage: Technical differentiators
EasyData’s unique expertise with ABBYY Vantage comes from 25+ years of experience with ABBYY technology. Some EasyData engineers even worked at ABBYY during the development of earlier versions. This deep knowledge makes us the ideal partner for complex implementations.
Custom Skill Development for specific use cases
In addition to standard Vantage skills, EasyData has developed specialized skills for various markets, such as technical drawing recognition for construction, traffic fine processing with license plate recognition and NDIS invoices for the Australian healthcare market.
EasyData Business Connector Framework
Where ABBYY Marketplace connectors are missing, EasyData deploys its own Business Connector framework. This enables integration with virtually any system – from legacy mainframes to modern cloud platforms like Pega, ServiceNow and Salesforce.
Image Enhancement for difficult documents
EasyData’s image enhancement technology preprocesses scans before Vantage processes them. This increases recognition accuracy for poorly scanned documents, photos with shadows, and even handwritten notes on printed forms.

Frequently asked questions about ABBYY Vantage
What is the difference between ABBYY Vantage and ABBYY FlexiCapture?
ABBYY Vantage is the modern, cloud-native successor to FlexiCapture with a low-code approach. Where FlexiCapture requires technical expertise for project configuration, business users can customize Vantage skills themselves. Vantage contains pre-trained ML models, has better APIs and scales automatically in the cloud. EasyData guides organizations through migration from FlexiCapture to Vantage, while preserving existing business logic and training data.
How much does an ABBYY Vantage implementation cost?
ABBYY Vantage implementations range from $15,000-$200,000 depending on complexity, number of document types and integrations. ABBYY license costs are based on processed volume (pages per year). EasyData offers transparent pricing with fixed implementation costs. Most clients achieve ROI within 9-15 months through administrative cost savings and faster throughput. We’re happy to start with a free Proof of Concept to validate feasibility and ROI for your specific use case.
Can ABBYY Vantage also process handwritten documents?
Yes, ABBYY Vantage supports handwriting recognition (ICR) for printed forms with handwritten fields. EasyData has developed skills for technical drawings with handwritten annotations that can recognize different handwritings. For fully handwritten documents (like letters), results vary depending on legibility. In those cases, we often combine Vantage with human-in-the-loop verification for optimal accuracy.
How does ABBYY Vantage integrate with ERP systems?
ABBYY Vantage integrates via REST APIs with all common ERP systems. EasyData has standard connectors for popular platforms like SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle and more. For systems without standard connectors, we develop custom integrations with our Business Connector framework. Integration is bidirectional – Vantage can retrieve master data for validation and write extracted data directly to the ERP. This ensures real-time processing without manual intermediate steps.
Is ABBYY Vantage GDPR-compliant?
Yes, ABBYY Vantage fully complies with GDPR requirements. EasyData implements Vantage preferably on Azure West Europe or on private cloud infrastructure for data residency. All document processing takes place within the EU with full audit trails. For sensitive documents, we can realize on-premise deployment or private cloud scenarios. EasyData advises on DPIA requirements when processing special category personal data.
What happens to my FlexiCapture license if I migrate to Vantage?
ABBYY offers migration programs where existing FlexiCapture licenses can be traded for Vantage credits. EasyData guides this process with ABBYY and ensures a smooth transition without double license costs during the migration period. FlexiCapture remains supported by ABBYY according to the Product Lifecycle Policy, but new features are only added to Vantage. EasyData continues to support FlexiCapture for organizations not yet ready to migrate, but advises establishing a migration plan.
