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

VueScan saved my scanner's life...

I use VueScan software for a 16 year old Fujitsu Scansnap S1500M. I use it because Fujitsu could no longer provide a driver for the new MacOS versions. So, you could say that VueScan saved my scanner's life. The VueScan software has all the features I need. There are many settings options. If I had known about VueScan earlier, I would have switched to VueScan much earlier.

This a fantastic product

This a fantastic product! I first bought the lifetime version decades ago because Windows XP would not support my scanner. VueScan saved me the expense of buying a new scanner at that time. Since then, I have replaced the scanner several times, and VueScan is better than the tools supplied with the scanners

Long time user

I have used VueScan for many years. I have watched it grow from a good app to a great app. Each update adds something extra. Sometimes the upgrade adds things you never thought about. Example one of the upgrades added a feature to remove punched holes in the scan of a document, drawing.

I've used Vuescan for years

I've used Vuescan for years, since it was pretty new. It always works and is very reliable. I've used it for personal as well as business scans.

It also enables me to use my older Nikon Coolscan film scanner with my Mac. There is no Nikon software for the Mac.

I always donate because I think it is well worth it.

Life extension for Fujitsu and Epson…

Vuescan has kept my Fujitsu and Epson scanners going well beyond end of life and provided features never included with the original software. They continue to improve the software by adding additional models and features very regularly. ABout as happy as I can be with this product

produces excellent scan results

I’ve been using VueScan for many years, and it continues to deliver. The software produces excellent scan results and offers powerful tools to fine‑tune colors, sharpness, and contrast. Depending on the document, the OCR also works, making text extraction easy and accurate. Another major plus: it works flawlessly with older scanners, even when manufacturers no longer provide drivers.

VueScan Rocks!

This program interfaces seamlessly with my HP scanner. Easy to use and figure out. Been a big fan of VueScan for years, it always comes through.

It works well!

I have top-of-the-line Epson sheet-fed scanner but their own driver and scanning program are very buggy for Windows. It's simply not going to install stating that there's not enough space on the hard drive where I have freshly installed Windows 11 with terabytes of free space. It is frustrating and others have complained and Epson are not doing anything about it. This program is God sent. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I use viewscan to capture my family's…

I use viewscan to capture my family's old 35mm slides on a photo scanner and to scan documents on my multi-function printer/scanner. It does a great job at both tasks.

I got it to replace the hard-to-use software that came with my Epson V700 Photo scanner, but it's incredibly handy at capturing paper documents at tax time and for sharing.

Easy to use and flexible.

I bought this a couple of years ago when my scanning software stopped working as I was getting my taxes ready for my CPA. It is without a doubt the best scanning software I've used for a reasonable price. It is easy to use, has a lot of options and the scans are crystal clear.
