I downloaded and tried out both recently for my Canon 9950F.
Using VueScan I had a scan done in a few minutes, that was better in
every way as compared to the Canon ScanGear software (included with
the scanner). The difference was huge.
Using SilverFast, I never did manage to make a scan, and finally
deleted it off my drive. Good riddance. Many people love it, I
couldn't get it to make a simple scan (yes, I read the instructions,
bla bla bla). I bought VueScan.
I think both programs will allow you to attain excellent results, but
the GUI's are as different as can be, so I would try before you buy.
Also, SilverFast is locked to one scanner Make/model when you buy it,
while VueScan supports pretty much every scanner ever made.
My take as a scanning newbie.
Cheers,
Thor

Frederic,
People use the Vue Scan (amazingly cheap!)
or the Silverfast Software. (amazingly expensive!)
No one uses the Nikon Software.
It's for babies.
