Looking for an alternative to Brother ControlCenter?
Brother ControlCenter is the free software that comes with your Brother scanner. So why would you be looking for an alternative? There are two main reasons people look for an alternative:
- ControlCenter no longer works on their operating system (like on macOS Catalina)
- They want more features from their scanner than ControlCenter provides.
Why VueScan is a good alternative
Brother has recommended that customers use iPrint&Scan application or Image Capture. But you might also want to use VueScan Scanner Software. VueScan works on over 6000 scanners, even scanners that are no longer supported by their scanner vendor, so you can use VueScan with any scanner you might own.
Step 1: Select the category of your product. Inkjet Printer / Fax / MFC / DCP; Monochrome Laser Printer; Color Printer (Laser / LED) Monochrome Laser Fax / MFC / DCP. The control center is now in v4 for windows but remained at v2 for Mac for the past several years. V2 control center is a 32-bit application and we have been receiving warnings from Apple for an extended period of time. Brother appears to have chosen to ignore them and has little interest in updating its drivers and software for their printers.
You might also want to use more advanced features than came with ControlCenter. You might want to put multiple photos on the flatbed and have VueScan separate them automatically - you can do that with VueScan. You might want to extract text from your documents (OCR) - you can do that with VueScan. Download VueScan and start trying all the advanced features today.
