"Classic "knows the code personally" product support"
Pros
I've been programming since 1980 or so and know what it means to have a product this feature rich, this user-tuneable, that the originator still has full hands-on knowledge of. I've experienced his rapid-response programming fixes for odd things I've run into with both old and brand-new scanners, and for oddball one-in-a-million kind of scanning tasks. I like it.
Cons
I'm thinking, I'm thinking....Can't come up with a complaint yet. I also own the latest ReadIris and ABBY, Nuance Paperport 12, and yet I find VueScan does what I need the fastest, and most accurately. It isn't ALWAYS what I end up using, but if it was the only tool I had for digitizing documents and old photos, doing OCR on a variety of things, I would not be crippled up....
Summary
I would buy it again. The best thing I can say about *anything* I've ever purchased - would I do it again? Yep.
