    Essential Tool | Used Daily

    Date: Jun 11 2024
    Summary

    Great experience over multiple iterations over many years. Quite pleased. Very reasonable cost for the utility I get from it. Use it professionally in systems engineering and marketing use cases but also in my private life.

    Positive

    Ease of use. Powerful tool without adding complexity. Seamless workflow. Covers broad set of use cases. Helps me to communicate faster and more impactfully.

    Negative

    None I can think of. Maybe an auto-mirror of all captures to one of the public clouds. Perhaps use AI to auto-tag and organize captures / creations. Perhaps a partnership with GEN AI agent to create new images and video with ones own captures as a basis. Conversely create image or video and have it fed directly into the tool for editing. Then push that back to the AI. So ultimately a back and forth collaboration as desired. Dev could build you own AI internally or perhaps leverage a publ

    Every new need I have - it's already built-in

    Date: Jun 12 2024
    Summary

    Product that is doing what it should, good price level. Intuitive interface and seamless integration with operating system.

    Positive

    Seamless integration in Windows operating system and shortkeys. Very nice annotation tool. Started to use it for screenshots, now also for education videos. Brought down my time needed to create and publish customer documentations. Screenshot library very practical and helpful.

    Negative

    Cannot install on more than one individual computer - even if I am the only user on each.

    I use Snag-It every day

    Date: May 03 2024
    Summary

    I've been using Snag-It for over 10 years. It has evolved in this time to be extremely powerful and easy to use. In my role as Technical Writer/Training Instructor, I use Snag-It daily to document existing functionality of software. I also use it to create mock ups for future screens in our software. I've recently taken advantage of its video recording capabilities to best demonstrate various features of our software. I recommend Snag-It to everyone!

    Positive

    Snag-It is easy to use and very intuitive. The price of the product and maintenance is very affordable.

    Negative

    Nothing. It is hard to come up with a con for this product.

    I Love Snagit!

    Date: May 02 2024
    Summary

    My overall experience has been a very good one. There is a reason I have used this program for all these many years, maintained my license, gotten the upgrades. Snagit is a great program, I'm so glad I have it to use!

    Positive

    I have been using Snagit for a good 20 years, now...I think it's been that long. Time flies when you're busy living it. I am not a graphics person. All the cool stuff graphic artists do....I'm not one of them. I have been a Snagit fan all these years because it's simple to use. This program allows me to accomplish what I need to accomplish with ease, a minimum of hassle.

    Negative

    I have only one whine....no drag and drop on Editor! If I could just grab the graphic and drag it into Editor, especially multiple graphics at one time, I would be SUCH a happy Snagit user!

    Summary

    The tool makes it easy to share a screenshot with my teammates. It helps a lot when taking screenshots. A quick and reliable way to capture and annotate screenshots.

    Positive

    I like the annotation and rendering part, easy to use and saves a lot of time. I like the built-in editor which makes editing easy. The directions are very easy to understand. I love the way they implemented the changes.

    Negative

    I wish I could just click on the icon and just drag. I would like more editing features, I should have a shortcut for everything.

    Excellent Product

    Date: Jun 10 2024
    Summary

    I've used Snagit for many years. My company does not buy us developers utilities like Snagit so I've been paying for it my self. I've purchased the software update/support a get an improved version every year or so. I've not needed to call support so can't comment on that.
    My main usage is image snap and the editor. Both work well. A newer feature (new to me) allows capture of a web page that needs to be scrolled. This worked very nicely recently to capture an article I wanted to archive.

    Very cool product.

    Positive

    Very cool product.
    Not that expensive considering how well it works.
    Software maintenance contract is available for a good price.

    Negative

    There really is nothing I don't like. Works well on my Windows PC

    Negative

    It is an excellent tool in every aspect, I would recommend it to anyone. There is nothing I don't like about this product.

    Tool makes sharing screenshots and screen streams a breeze

    Date: Jul 30 2024
    Summary

    Easy to share screenshots and recordings with others, the program works very smoothly. It gives our representatives the ability to share images. The application is convenient for having my screenshots saved.

    Positive

    I like being able to mark screenshots as favorites so they are easier to find. Easy to take screenshots, love the ability to record videos to capture the screen. Great and fast recording features.

    Negative

    Sometimes the screenshot freezes in the middle of the range. It would be even better if it automatically downloaded the images, it lacks the ability to edit them after production.

    Too strict of a device policy for the price paid

    Date: Jun 08 2024
    Summary

    Great product but a pain to use for anyone with 3+ devices they need to use the same software on. Very easy to use, professional looking annotations. Just worked right out of the box. I like how easy it is to take screenshots and videos from the same software in seconds.

    Positive

    Very easy to use, professional looking annotations. Just worked right out of the box. I like how easy it is to take screenshots and videos from the same software in seconds.

    I use it multiple times every day for work and love it!

    Date: May 10 2024
    Summary

    I enjoy using it for work and personal task. It’s a great piece of software and makes a lot of things I do easier and quicker.

    Positive

    It’s really quick to take screenshots of exactly what you want with guides to know what will be included.
    It also saves the recent screenshots, making it quick to go back and edit the screenshot for minor changes.
    I often use the arrows, boxes, and text overlays to easily call things out in emails and Teams messages, as wells as to create process flow documentation

    Negative

    Not much comes to mind, although it might be nice to be able to expand a screenshot of part of the screen to more of the screen after the screenshot’s already been taken.

    Supporting creativity

    Date: May 11 2024
    Summary

    Overall, SnagIt has saved me enormous amounts of time and helped me communicate more efficiently. The scroll capture function generally works well and is really useful.

    Positive

    SnagIt makes it so much easier to assemble, edit and annotate screenshots that it opens a repertoire of new creative possibilities. There's lots of training resources available though most options are very self explanatory anyway.

    Negative

    My main comment is that I'd like to be able to add metadata to the screenshots - especially Alt Text for accessibility compliance. Likewise, it would be great if there were recommended accessibility-safe colour palettes. Finally, I haven't found a way to make SnagIt remember my default choices (fonts, colours etc) - that could be because I haven't looked hard enough yet.

    Date: Jun 10 2024
    Summary

    I'm a daily user and love this product. There are a lot of great features and a lot of options. I would recommend this to anyone who frequently makes screen snips. Super easy and the output is so professional!

    Positive

    Snagit is easy to use, has great features, and is intuitive. I love the many features but the panoramic/scroll feature and the quick video creation is awesome. The markup/annotation tools are really great and make my training materials so much better.

    Negative

    If any... there are a lot of updates but I know those are to my benefit.
