Best software for all scanners I'm using it for many years. I use it with my Nikon Coolscan V, my old Espson 2400 and my new Epson V600. I'm using it also with my printer Brother. So many possib... See more

For many years I've relied on VueScan to keep using a perfectly good scanner for which the maker, HP, stopped driver support, to force me to buy a replacement. I have gladly supported VueScan and they... See more

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I only do pretty basic scanning so can't vouch for advanced operation, but Vuescan works great for my needs. I've had it for probably about 20 years. It outlasted my second husband.

Not enough stars!. Brilliant easy-to-use software. Change your printer/scanner? No need to learn new scanning software. Picked up an elderly but brilliant Minolta slide scanner on Ebay - no proble... See more

The Best!!

I've been a user since October 2012 and can say unequivocally that this is one of the best software companies (of any size or type!) that one could hope for. Aside from that generality, yes it's a small company, but they provide the best scanner software. It works wonderfully, is always kept up-to-date, and is designed and maintained by a small group of individuals who care about not only what they have created but also about their customers.

I have used VueScan for several years

I have used VueScan for several years. It works with most copiers. Because it is an independent App, it is way ahead of those that copy manufacturers' supply. It does everything that I need it to do and then some.

Long-time user of VueScan

I've been using VueScan for several years now. It has been remarkably easy and effective to use. In the rare cases where I've had problems (usually operator error!), I was able to get immediate, thoughtful, and successful help.

Reliable and updated regularly

VueScan from hamrick.com is excellent. I saved a lot of money not having to purchase a new scanner. My Cannon scanner is great but Cannon's scan software stopped supporting the new MacOS version some years ago. And I switched to VueScan. Hamrick updates the software regularly and I am very happy with it. And it works with a kinds of scanners. So you need just one app to use with different scanners. No learning of new scanning software when you buy a different scanner.

Best Scanning Software, So Glad I Found It

I have been using this software for years now. It somehow unlocked hidden features in my scanner (Epson Perfection V600 Plus) like different file formats and higher scan resolutions. They constantly release new updates for free. If you're having problems with the software, make sure you're on the latest update, I only have problems when I'm not updated. It has no bloat, no pop-ups, no pointless AI integration, etc. I enjoy it so much I have donated to the developers since I feel like i've got so much use and utility out of it.

Fine :-)

First of all: It works - with all of my scanners.
Second: Verry many options at hand.
And: Settings can easily be saved.
And: Changes are few - only if essential.
Finaly: Die deutsche Version ist fachlich richtig übersetzt. (That's where many others fail.)

For flat scanner and slide scanner

I use this software for my flat scanner en for my slide scanner. For my slide scanner I used as an alternative for Silverfast 9. But is VueScan Professional is easier, faster and provides good quality.

The best software for special and mixed…

The best software for special and mixed network scanning networks. I use many different MFP and scanners - all of them are supported. Hamrick is on of the best software companies for me. And the support for my clients running windows and linux is great.

This software just works and works…

This software just works and works well. Much better than typical scan packages included with scanners by manufacturers. Extremely well integrated with MacOS, unlike other scanner packages. It is also updated regularly to make fixes and add new features. I wish all software was so thoughtfully created with the same level of care an attention to detail. Happy to pay to use it!
