USB C CAC Smart Card Reader, (Horizontal Version)

Easy to use. Works well so far. Used it 3-4 times now and it’s worked quickly and easily every time. Had a smaller one that didn’t hold up well but this one seems to be much better quality. The size is still small enough to throw in your back pack.

The cac card reader was everything that is says it is. It functions and is easy to use. The only draw back that they dont mention is after you install the driver you have to go threw and downlaod another program to install the certificates that you need in order to use this on any of the sites you are trying to access. So for me I am military and use it for my pay, classes, etc. So have to download all the dod certificates and install them into all the internet programs i use such as Firefox internet explorer etc. Its was no big deal and if you have already done that and just need a new cac reader because yours is bad or wont work then its great. But as is the item is perfect amd i had no issues what so ever installing or using it.

Quick delivery in perfect shape. Packaged in plastic clamshell, so a little annoying to open, but what are you going to do? Beyond that, has a 3 foot cord, plugs into a USB-C port, reads CAC and Alternate Token cards just fine, does all of the card reader things I need it to do. Would buy again.

The reader no longer works. It was used maybe 2-3 a month and it lasted less than 6 months. I would not buy again.

It worked well , perfect size and affordable too price wise. Easy to carry around since it’s portable and fast processing speed

I wanted a reliable DOD Cac reader for my home PC that runs Windows 10. The SAICOO was recommended by Military Cac, so I purchased it. When I installed it initially (using drivers provided on mini CD) with ActiveClient 6.0, it read my certs, but did not display them in Active Client, instead returning the error: "Your card does not comply with any of the known profiles". But when I uninstalled version 6 and installed version 7.1, the profile was recognized and certs can be seen within ActiveClient 7.1. So the SAICOO reader works well in Windows 10, when you use ActiveClient version 7.1 and NOT version 6.0.

excellent

It works very well for a period of time. However do not buy this if you need a reader you can take with you. The cord breaks down at the connection to the reader rendering the device useless. If it stays at home then this is fine but as soon as I brought it with me to and from work it only lasted a matter of days.
