Very good OCR performance. Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity. Color touch screen. Scans to multiple destinations.

Slow for its rated speed. Very slow in scanning to searchable PDF. Relatively frequent misfeeds. "Full" software setup leaves two programs uninstalled.

Overall, I really like and would recommend the Brother ImageCenter ADS-2500W to anyone who needs to scan regularly to a variety of destinations or who wants to transform their paper world into an digital one. That said, the ADS-2500W is not...

Relatively inexpensive, instant feed, 3 programmable scan buttons, 3-year warranty

Windows only, slow scans, no networking ability

Minor - “Forgets” wireless settings when unplugged, default scan settings when initiating scans from scanner itself gives mixed results (much more customizable initiating scans from the PC software), would be nice if the scanner could just see SAMBA...

This scanner has many specialized features which are easy to use, such as scanning to the cloud, or scanning to an e-mail. It is as fast as the specs claim, except when using computer intensive features on a very slow computer, like OCR or conversion...

Very expensive. Misfeeds consistently on a full stack of new documents without fail. The more pages you put into it, the more likely it is to misfeed. It is best to feed this unit one sheet at a time, which seems to defeat its main purpose. The...

Nice small design

had to rma the first one after 3 days of use because it keeps giving the error msg if you scan more then one paper. Called brother and had to send it back for a replacement. Used the RMA one for 2 weeks and it started having the same problem......

True PC less scanning. Support direct scan to various cloud storage. Scan direct to ftp/network. Scan to email. Touch screen control. Scan to USB. Reliable scanning

Saving settings for shortcut should be more granular. I should be able to scan to Evernote with one click of button using shortcut feature. Not 3-4 clicks even with the shortcut. (choosing PDF/JPEG, DPI, Color/Black...). Yes, response of the touch...
