Many companies in my experience offer replacement copies of documents for a price, and you may well decide to do that. And in many cases, that can be an unmitigated disaster (especially if you have lost tax paperwork). Because if your computer decides to commit suicide or self-destruct, having no backups means having absolutely no files. The more you scan, the more important it is that you back it all up. AlternativeTo has some good alternatives to Scannable if you are looking for something else. There is also Photomyne, if you are scanning photos. Evernote has Scannable, which detects the edges of the document when you point your smartphone camera at it. There are apps which claim to speed the process up for you (results are mixed in my opinion). Now create folders on your computer ( Taxes, Insurance, Payslips, etc), and when you scan a document, immediately move it into the relevant folder and add a descriptive name. You will find then that the Definitely Scan pile is probably more manageable. Maybe Scan is for things you are not sure of yet and you don't want to rush into a decision.
