I am user of VueScan since nearly two… I am user of VueScan since nearly two decades (or more). There is no better scan-program I know. Means: Vuescan is simply the best! I use an very old epson-scanner and it is not nececcary for changing it. Use VueScan for lifetime – scanning in future will be easy! Matthew

Good software, great customer support Software is good -- much better than the Epson software that came with my scanner (I have an Epson V700 and a V500 which I now use with VueScan). I am a novice with scanning, but use the software about 8 hours a week, on multiple scanners (the older Epsons previously mentioned and a Plustek 8300i) in a long-term effort to digitize my family photos, negatives, and documents. The software itself doesn't at first appear particularly flashy, but it is a good, versatile scanning tool with a ton of powerful features (different modes open up lots of different options). I particularly like the fact that you can skew the scans, which the Epson software doesn't allow. The software can also do Transparency mode (negatives/slides) assuming your scanner has a backlight. The customer support is really great as well. This morning, one of the updates had a bug or conflict specific to one of my scanners: I contacted help and in under an hour Ed had sent me a test version to see if it would fix the bug. It did, and will be rolled out in the next general update, but in the meantime I have a working beta version. I've never experienced that kind of support from a software company, so on that basis alone I would recommend the product/company.

I have been using VueScan for 20+… I have been using VueScan for 20+ years. I bought the professional version to help Ed as he started out. I have never been disappointed. The software has just kept improving over the years and works excellent. I use it for all my scanning needs: photo prints, negatives and slides. I have several scanners and it works great with all them. The software has tons of features, options and helpful workflows. I especially like filter features (IR clean, restore colors, restore fading, grain reduction). I have tried other software including the software that came with the scanner and other commercial software and not been as satisfied with the results. I can produce an image straight from Vuescan that does not require Photoshopping later. I am back scanning another batch of old negatives and have reaffirmed my satisfaction with Vuescan.

Vuescan saved my scanner I stumbled on Vuescan when searching Google for some way to extend the life of my scanner that would have been made obsolete by Mac OS upgrades. I have been using Vuescan since 2016 and never had a problem. Ed regularly provides free software updates and I am grateful to him for providing an excellent product and service. He always responds quickly to any questions. Well worth the money.

Great Software / Great Support Was having issues with an old Epson scanner. The software would start, but then stall mid-scan. Troubleshooting with Ed he was able to get it working again. It's rare these days to get this kind of timely and responsive tech support. Highly recommend the software and should you need support, you're in good hands!
