You can't use all the features
When I'm scanning 2-sided documents that are smaller than 8.5"x11", the scanner automatically flips them on the right edge instead of the left edge. I have to fix the scans in Adobe Acrobat. This problem only happens when I use the scanner's desktop software, iPrint&Scan.
When I scan to USB using the scanner's control panel, there's no option to include OCR.
When I scan to Web using the scanner's control panel, there's no option to scan in black-and-white.
There are no options to compress scans larger than 300 dpi, so they files become too large.
It's a great machine, but with limitations.

Wow!
I've used this a few times and I am still amazed by its speed and efficiency. I love how small it is too. I was actually expecting it to be larger but it is easy to move and can fit right on my desk. It is light and easy to move also. It has a nice display screen. I love that I am able to send the documents right to my email and it show up within a minute.

Great for busy medical offices
I have been using this Brother ADS-4900W scanner in our busy medical practice. With medical records being predominantly electronic these days, we often have a need to scan and upload a large volume of outside reports and records into our EMR software. This scanner is able to scan and upload a high volume of paper very quickly. Set up was’t too complicated or time consuming. The unit itself is compact and takes up a minimal amount of desk space and runs pretty quietly. There are lots of options to customize this scanner, including a workgroup feature, and the ability to scan from an IPhone or Android phone. There are also several scan-to options that include email and cloud capabilities. Even with the basic default settings, this machine is a real workhorse.

Amazing features!
This scanner works great for my at home business. The quality of the print looks amazing and crisp. It does not take any time for the machine to scan the file and send it to the computer. The touch screen display makes using the scanner a breeze. Highly recommend!

Extremely fast!
The Brother professional desktop scanner is my favorite machine for the office. It came easy to set up with very clear and precise directions. The machine is small and light, allowing me to put it almost anywhere in my office. I was very surprised how simple it was to set up and connect to my devices. The Wi-Fi works extremely well and is easy to pair. The speed at which it scans is phenomenal! I downloaded the app on my phone and the quality of each page scanned is excellent. I love the curved paper tray, making it so the papers exiting do not fly out. The input tray easily adjust to sizes and can handle multiple pages fast! I’ve never seen a scanner work so fast and be so clear with the output. I’m very pleased and recommend this scanner to anyone looking to save time in the office. Excellent product!

The very best sheetfed scanner made! Home run!!
The ADS-4900W hits all marks with perfection. This sheetfed scanner offers very easy output automation for your 600dpi color or monochrome scans at a stunning 60 to to 120 pages per minute, depending on color settings. I love the machine’s silence, minimal footprint, and beautiful touch screen - but for me, the simplicity of its vast output options are what defines the ADS-4900W as the very best. I was able to set up both scan to a network storage and to a SharePoint site within minutes using preset options, and there are MANY other options and automations that are a tap away on the high resolution touch screen. Brother truly covered all bases with the ADS-4900W’s design and it can be integrated into absolutely any workflow system easily. The quality of the scans is also quite remarkable. When I use the ADS-4900W I wonder where it has been all my life - it is a valued time saver and huge quality enhancement to my work, and I am certainly not alone!

Great scanner
This scanner is very easy to use and fast. It’s a great solution to archive piles of documents. Is wireless and can also work without a pc by using a flash drive. You can also scan double sided documents. It also remove any blank documents should you put them in the pile by mistake.

LOVE IT!!
I just received this a few days ago and I have already used it so much. I sometimes work from home, and I do a lot of emailing and scanning. Everything is paperless at my job. The brother desktop scanner is great, it scans a lot of paperwork at once and makes my work life at home so much easier. The set-up is very easy, it only took me about 10 minutes to set it up and get started. If you are thinking about buying this product, you should, you will not be disappointed.

Great for Work From Home
I love this for my new at home office, it scans reports, referrals, and documents in a flash and uploads them right to the file you want so you can email them at ease. It's extremely more useful than a fax and in my opinion much quicker. Every office that deals with mounds of paperwork definitely would run smoother with one.

It's super fast!
It took a LOT of downloading to get the scanner to do what we needed it to do for work, but once we got past all of that, this machine flies when loading documents. I have never seen a scanner go that fast! It does not jam and it sends the documents to the destination within seconds. It is heavy duty and very efficient.

Bitter-Sweet with a grain of salt
Its super-fast, image quality is amazing, however there are no compression controls making the files too big to send over e-mail. must use google drive to pivot files around.
It's extremely archaic software interphase and it is very hard to upgrade, even when connecting the USB cable directly to the computer... definitely not a plug and play.
The phone-app is actually good, it's the reason I did not return the machine and made it possible to manage its practical use.

Fast and efficient!
I love how compact this system is. It is very easy to unpack and set up. The convenience of being able to fit on smaller desks or surfaces is wonderful. The machine works extremely fast and proficient. One page to multiple pages T this machine has never let me down. I definitely would recommend this to anyone looking to save time while scanning in the office or home.

Easy Setup, Fast Scanning
My Brother ADS-4900W Professional Desktop Scanner was a great addition to my peripheral devices and is now an essential component in my home office setup. This printer zips thru scanning multiple documents with a 100 page capacity feeder and blazing 60 page per minute. I was quite surprised at how fast it scanned documents at high quality. It even handles stacks of paper with various sizes and weights with ease. The 4.3” color touchscreen display is super bright, easy to read, easy to use, and conveniently place right in the front middle of the scanner. Wireless setup was a breeze and connecting to it wirelessly was just as easy. In fact, I didn't even need the instruction manual to go from manual setup to wireless printing. It literally took a few minutes and I was done. Furthermore, I was able to setup the scanner to scan to my applications Google Drive™ and to my email. The OCR feature is most impressive and the software the come with it allows you to scan to searchable PDF's. This is the product I never thought I needed and I'm so very impressed with it.

User friendly
This scanner has the capability to scan many documents at great speed. I scan a lot of documents daily working from home and this scanner has been able to keep up with the workload. It is very quick and easy. I used to use an app on my phone and have to email it to myself to get it on my computer and now with this there is no need and it’s so much easier. I am very happy with this scanner.
