Save for the angle. I feel like part of the reason for the long scan duration was so that the player could use it in a sweeping motion. That was abused to hell and back, obviously, but without it the active scanner seems to have a very narrow angle; with the widest angles (90 degrees) having a very long cool-down time.
If we're sticking with the 'snapshot' method (which is good), I feel the angle needs to be a bit wider to compliment the longer cooldown. Otherwise we're going to need a new method for Specialists to utilize TacNet and dropsuit scanning won't cut it as it doesn't offer anything for the squad/team.
Vehicle Scanners on the other hand now are completely overshadowing Active Scanners and I have a feeling this will continue to be the case until Active Scanners are a bit more viable.

Right right. The notifier in the bottom left is amazingly handy as well and a very welcome addition :3

advanced should last 60 seconds and take 90 to cooldown.
Or reverse scanners to have shorter cool downs.
Nah. Cooldowns are a'ight in my opinion. Lowering them would put us right back to "always being scanned every day ever" I feel.

You think they are alright even though they don't give the scan angles they advertise? I agree about the cool down time, they are fine as is.
One step at a time
